We are currently experiencing a delay in provisioning the instance. It may take up to 20 minutes for the instance to become ready for RDP connections and the initial configuration after the first login.
Default Credentials for RDP connection:
- Username: Administrator
- Computer Name: Public IPv4 address of your EC2 instance (e.g., 35.173.131.168)
- Password: Retrieve the password from the AWS management console by selecting the instance, then going to "Actions" and choosing "Get Windows Password".
Run Selenium sample code:
The Selenium setup is preconfigured to work with several language bindings: Python, Java, and NodeJS. The provided sample code files cover a range of browser operations including initializing the web driver, navigating to a URL, interacting with web elements like clicking or sending keys, scrolling to specific elements, and capturing screenshots. To run our sample scripts, open Visual Studio Code and select the script you would like to execute. Click on 'Run' and then choose either 'Start Debugging' or 'Run Without Debugging'.
We keep software installations to a minimum, and no sensitive data is stored on the virtual machine instance. If you encounter any issues or have additional questions, please refer to our documentation or reach out to our support team.
