Jenkins : Selenium GUI tests are not visible on Windows

I had the same problem, i got the solution after many attempts.
This solution works ONLY on windows XP

If you are using jenkins as a windows service you need to do the following :

1) In windows service select the service of jenkins

Opening Service.msc view

2) Open properties window of the service -> Logon-> enable the checkbox “Allow service to interact with desktop”

Jenkins properties

After then you should reboot the service jenkins

Hope this help you 🙂

UPDATE:

Actually, I’m working on a an automation tool using Selenium on Windows 10, I’ve installed Jenkins ver. 2.207 as windows application (EXE file), it’s running as windows service and ALL drivers (Chrome, FireFox, IE) are visible during test executions WITHOUT performing a mere configuration on the System or Jenkins
