selenium3 and firefox

[Jon Schewe]

I'm trying to use the new geckodriver with selenium. I'm using geckodriver 0.11.1. I'm using selenium 3.0. I have firefox 49.

I have tried creating the driver object these 2 options:

1)

    final DesiredCapabilities capabilities = DesiredCapabilities.firefox();

    capabilities.setCapability("marionette", true);

    final WebDriver selenium = new FirefoxDriver(capabilities);

2)

    final WebDriver selenium = new FirefoxDriver();

In both cases a firefox window opens, but then nothing happens. No errors, but nothing happens in the browser either. What am I doing wrong?

Here is the output of my test application:

SLF4J: Class path contains multiple SLF4J bindings.

SLF4J: Found binding in [jar:file:/home/jpschewe/projects/fll-sw/working-dir/scoring/lib/slf4j-log4j12-1.7.5.jar!/org/slf4j/impl/StaticLoggerBinder.class]

Hi Jon, 

Please execute mvn dependecny:tree and check.

SLF4J jar might be referenced in multiple jars with different version. 

So, please remove and execute and check whether issue exists. 

Thanks

Saravanan

I'm not using maven. That error has been in my test before and it worked with older versions of Firefox. So I really doubt that is it.

You can just tell Selenium where to find the gecko driver:

            System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver", "firefoxDriver"+File.separator+"geckodriver.exe");
            driver = new FirefoxDriver();

I'm doing that with Web Driver Manager as it ensures that I have the latest version downloaded and for the correct platform.

That being said, how do I debug this not working? What should I be looking into why commands are not getting sent to the web browser?

OK, I've removed the extra reference to SLF4J and my system has upgraded Firefox to 50. Here's the output of my connection showing an error talking to the browser. Seeing the post about browsers and versions suggests that I should start using Chrome to test instead of Firefox. Is that correct?

This error indicates that Firefox is unable to connect to
http://localhost:9080/.

[Jon Schewe]

Thank you. Sorry to bother. I was so focused on the error from before that I assumed I was still stuck on a selenium error. Everything works now.

If you have an idea how we can make this error message better, please
let us know.

The current message is highly specific, but perhaps does not
communicate in an easy to understand fashion what the source of the
problem is.

[dheeraj bharti]

Jon,

How did you fix the issue? Are you still using firefox 50 or downgraded to 49?

Regards,
Dheeraj

[Jon Schewe]

I removed the extra reference to SL4J, which I wouldn't have expected to make a difference. My browser was upgraded from FF 49 to FF 50. When I ran this time it's all working. I did need to add some pauses after page loads to ensure that the browser had finished loading before doing the next action, but otherwise it's working.

Now on my Jenkins system I'm using firefox 45 and the same code isn't behaving as well. Selenium is properly connecting, but some of my browser actions aren't taking place. I suspect that's something with timing as my Jenkins system is much slower than the system that I've been testing on.
