  • add just selenium version

    $ pip3.6 uninstall selenium
$ pip3.6 install selenium==2.53.6

  • install libraries (besides yum)

    $ cd /root
$ mkdir -p work/download
$ cd work/download        

$ sudo wget -O /etc/yum.repos.d/jenkins.repo http://pkg.jenkins-ci.org/redhat-stable/jenkins.repo

$ sudo rpm --import https://jenkins-ci.org/redhat/jenkins-ci.org.key
$ yum install -y jenkins

$ cd /root/work/download
$ wget https://github.com/mozilla/geckodriver/releases/download/v0.21.0/geckodriver-v0.21.0-linux64.tar.gz
$ tar xzvf /root/work/download/geckodriver-v0.21.0-linux64.tar.gz -C /usr/local/bin

configuration

  • modify NTP server

    • modify /etc/ntp.conf for favourite NTP server
    • activate and make the service auto start 
      $ service ntpd start
$ chkconfig ntpd on
    • check the current NTP 
      $ ntpq -p

  • sudo privilege

    • add a file named renat (persion 0440) to folder /etc/sudoers.d

      Defaults    env_keep += "PATH PYTHONPATH LD_LIBRARY_PATH MANPATH XDG_DATA_DIRS PKG_CONFIG_PATH RENAT_PATH"
Cmnd_Alias CMD_ROBOT_ALLOW  = /bin/kill,/usr/local/bin/nmap,/usr/sbin/hping3,/usr/sbin/tcpdump
%techno ALL=NOPASSWD: CMD_ROBOT_ALLOW
%jenkins ALL=NOPASSWD: CMD_ROBOT_ALLOW

    • comment out the line including secure_path in the file /etc/sudoers

      # Defaults    secure_path = /sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin

  • change some system default behaviours

    • create a folder name work under /etc/skel with permission 0775

    • change UMASK to 022 in the file /etc/login.defs

      # UMASK           077
UMASK           022

  • add a default group and user and set its password

    $ groupadd techno -o -g 1000
$ useradd robot -g techno
$ passwd robot

    Note: the password of this robot account is set in the RENAT config file ${RENAT_PATH}/config/config.yaml

  • configure jenkins:

    • Change jenkins listen port JENNKINS_PORT to 8002 in file /etc/sysconfig/jenkins

      # JENKINS_PORT="8080"
JENKINS_PORT="8082"

    • enable the service

      $ systemctl enable jenkins
$ systemctl start jenkins

  • configure iptables: By default, Centos7 does not support saving iptables from service command.

    $ systemctl stop firewalld
$ systemctl disable firewalld
$ yum install -y iptables-services
$ systemctl enable iptables.service
$ systemctl start iptables.service

    Then configure iptables to allow necessary ports like 80,8082,22 and traffic from IxiaAppServer. Or allow access for your whole local network:

    -A INPUT -s 10.128.0.0/16 -j ACCEPT

  • configure httpd service

    • add apache to techno group

    • modify userdir.conf under folder /etc/httpd/conf.d to show list the work folder of each user

      # UserDir disabled
UserDir enabled

# UserDir public_html
UserDir work

# <Directory "/home/*/public_html">
 <Directory "/home/*/work">
   IndexOptions +NameWidth=*

      Note: Do not for get the <Directory> section

    • add robot to mime type in file /etc/mime.types

      # text/plain            txt asc text pm el c h cc hh cxx hxx f90 conf log
text/plain              txt asc text pm el c h cc hh cxx hxx f90 conf log robot

    • prepare the document folder

      $ mkdir -p /var/www/html/renat-doc
$ chown apache:techno /var/www/html/renat-doc/
$ chmod 0775 /var/www/html/renat-doc/

    • enable and restart the service

      $ systemctl restart httpd
$ systemctl enable httpd

  • make skeleton for users

    • create a folder call work under /etc/skel with mode 0750

add a renat user

  • add a user to the group techno

    $ useradd user -g techno
$ passwd user

  • login as the new user

  • create a key for the account robot that would be used for using with SSH proxy. Enter when asked for password (2 times)

    $ mkdir ~/.ssh
$ cd ~/.ssh
$ ssh-keygen -C for_robot_`whoami` -f robot_id_rsa

  • push to key to proxy server using robot password

    $ ssh-copy-id -i robot_id_rsa.pub robot@<proxy server IP>
