Rubber Cluster for Dynamic Selenium Grid (Opening Keynote)

on YouTube ↗45m

" summary

Describes building a dynamic, on‑demand Selenium Grid using Docker containers orchestrated by Mesos/Marathon to replace 15 static VMs and scale to about 120 concurrent sessions. Explains patching the Selenium standalone node to accept an external port so container host/port can be registered with the hub, and a pipeline that creates the grid, runs heavy test suites (many finishing in 2–10 minutes), then tears the grid down.
