ScalaTest + Play Problems with FirefoxFactory

[Mirko Stocker]

Hi,

I'm unable to run a very basic ScalaTest + Play test within Firefox. The
browser opens, but it doesn't load anything, and after a timeout the test
fails:

[info] ExampleSpec:
org.openqa.selenium.firefox.NotConnectedException: Unable to connect to host

[info] The OneBrowserPerTest trait

I initially thought that it must be my system (Linux, Firefox 38), but I'm
able to reproduce this on a Windows and Ubuntu (14.10, Firefox 35), so it
might not be my system after all. The code is here:

Any ideas what could have caused this?

Cheers

Problem solved! I forgot to add the driver to my library dependencies:

"org.seleniumhq.selenium" % "selenium-firefox-driver" % "2.46.0",

Apparently it's important to not add this to the test-classpath only, i.e.
this will _not_ work:

"org.seleniumhq.selenium" % "selenium-firefox-driver" % "2.46.0" % "test",
