Find which node my selenium-grid remote driver is running on?

Question

I obtain a RemoteWebDriver from the hub as follows:

RemoteWebDriver driver = new RemoteWebDriver( 
                                      new URL(\"http://whateve

Please refer to this blog post of mine to learn how to find out the node ip and port to which the test was routed to.

In a nutshell, here's what you need to do (The blog I shared has elaborate explanation and required code )

• Get the session id from webdriver via Webdriver.getSessionId()
• You then append the session id obtained from the previous step to the URL http://localhost:4444/grid/api/testsession?session= (replace localhost with the actual Grid IP/host and replace 4444 with the port on which grid is listening to) and trigger a POST call.
• From the JSON response you parse the value of attribute proxyId as a URL and extract out the IP and port from it.

This is now available for ready consumption via the library talk2grid that I built.
