  1. Add the Selenium Helm repository and run helm install selenium-grid docker-selenium/selenium-grid --set hub.serviceType=LoadBalancer to deploy Hub, Distributor, Router, EventBus, and browser Nodes as separate Kubernetes Deployments
  2. Configure browser node replicas and resource limits in values.yaml; set node.replicas and node.resources.requests/limits for CPU and memory per browser type
  3. Configure session timeouts via hub.sessionTimeout and enable autoscaling by setting autoscaling.enabled=true with appropriate min/max replica counts in values.yaml
  4. Point your test's RemoteWebDriver at the LoadBalancer external IP on port 4444 with a DesiredCapabilities or Options object specifying browser name and version
  5. Monitor the Grid via the built-in /ui endpoint on port 4444 and scrape Prometheus metrics from the /metrics endpoint for session queue depth and node availability
