Firefox execution with selenium grid is not working for me

[mounika....@gmail.com]

Hello,

I am using 3.14 version of selenium standalone server, firefox browser (58 version) and selenium (3.11.0). When I am executing tests remotely through Firefox, multiple Firefox browsers are launching and Url is not pasting on to the address bar. I wonder what is the compatibility of firefox with the selenium and grid. Can anyone please help me to resolve the issue.

Thanks,

Mounika

Neither of you have added enough contextual information to help us figure out what is going wrong.

 

Here’s some information that you can consider adding:

 

1. What does your code look like?
2. What happens when you use the same Selenium version across the board [ 3.14 being the latest released version ]
3. What version of geckodriver are you working with ?
4. When you run a test, do you see any errors on the Selenium node console?

 

Please feel free to add any more additional information that you think can help figure out the root cause.

 

Thanks & Regards

Krishna,

     

            Please find the details below,

Operating System - Ubuntu

Selenium - 3.14  version

Gecko - geckodriver-v0.23.0-linux64.tar.gz

Sample Code - 

import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;

import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;

public class Test1 {

public static void main(String[] args) throws InterruptedException {

// TODO Auto-generated method stub

System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver","/home/tectoro/Desktop/eclipse/Selenium/geckodriver.exe");

WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();

driver.get("http://www.google.com");

 

Thread.sleep(5000);

driver.quit();

}

}

Please find the Error Below

Sindhu

You are not using the selenium grid at all. 

The problem lies in this line 

System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver","/home/tectoro/Desktop/eclipse/Selenium/geckodriver.exe")

There is no ".exe" in Linux. Please fix the line and refer to the proper geckodriver executable and try again.

Please download from https://github.com/mozilla/geckodriver/releases/download/v0.23.0/geckodriver-v0.23.0-linux64.tar.gz

Once downloaded untar this file into an appropriate directory to get the geckodriver binary and refer it's location in your code.

Krishna,

    Still Iam facing the same problem

The root cause remains the same. 

Not sure what additional assistance I can provide beyond what I already have said. 

The general steps would be :

1. Download geckodriver tar file. 

2. Unzip to a location. 

3. Go to the location and run: ./geckodriver 

You should see the binary run. If you get an error you may have to add execution permission to the extracted binary. 

4. Use the location obtained from (3) in your code in the system property.

Hi Krishnan,

1. What does your code look like?

         if (config.getProperty("browser").equals("Firefox")){

  if (config.getProperty("Target").equals("remote")) {

  try {

  FirefoxOptions options = new FirefoxOptions();

  options.setBinary("C:\\Program Files\\Mozilla Firefox\\firefox.exe");

  capabilities = DesiredCapabilities.firefox();

  capabilities.setCapability("moz:firefoxOptions", options);

  Page.driver = new RemoteWebDriver(new URL(hubURL), capabilities);

      2. What happens when you use the same Selenium version across the board [ 3.14 being the latest released version ]

        I could execute tests on the local machine with firefox but getting error when executing remotely through selenium grid.

1. What version of geckodriver are you working with ?

        I am using geckodriver-v0.23.0 (latest version)

1. When you run a test, do you see any errors on the Selenium node console?

          I am getting below exceptions:

Hey instead of downloading the drivers, use driver manager jar

Mounika,

 

I don’t think you got what I am saying.

 

>>>>>>       2. What happens when you use the same Selenium version across the board [ 3.14 being the latest released version ]

 

I meant what happens when you use Selenium 3.14 at the grid level as well ?

Also have you checked and ensured your geckodriver is all fine in the selenium grid nodes ?

 

You might also want to ensure that the firefox version and geckodriver version is the same on the grid node machines, as what you have in your local desktop (Where firefox test works )

 

 

Thanks & Regards

Krishnan Mahadevan
