Problem with firefox driven when running many tests

[jérémie GUIDOUX]

I have a strange problem with the Firefox driver.

When I launch a simple test. It works.

But when I duplicate this test it works not.

But with chrome  it works. The problem is only with firefox driver.

My test is simple: I go to the login page. write user and password and click on the login button to go to the homepage.

This is my test with the duplication : 

  def "login with valid user in the login page"() {


        when: "I try to to go the login page"
        go "/"
        then: "I should be to the login page"
        def loginPage = at LoginPage


        when: "I log in with valid identifiers user:password"
        loginPage.login("user", "password")
        then: "I should be on the home page"
        at HomePage


        cleanup:
        logout()




    }


    def "login with valid user in the login page2 "() {


        when: "I try to to go the login page"
        go "/"
        then: "I should be to the login page"
        def loginPage = at LoginPage


        when: "I log in with valid identifiers user:password"
        loginPage.login("user", "password")
        then: "I should be on the home page"
        at HomePage


        cleanup:
        logout()




    }

I use the gecko driver version : v0.16.1

selenium version : 3.4.0

Geb version 1.1.1

I use the systemProperty 'webdriver.gecko.driver' to define the gecko driver location 

and I instantiate the driver like this 

```

  driver = {new FirefoxDriver()}

The error message is : 

Condition failed with Exception:

The problem is that the click() method on the login button not work the second time I think. But it works the first time. I guess it is more that the second time we are not in a clean context, but I don't know why :

This is a part of  the code of my LoginPage : 

static content = {
        loginForm { $("#login-form") }
        usernameInputField { loginForm.username() }
        passwordInputField { loginForm.password() }
        submitButton() {
            loginForm.find("input", type: "submit")
        }
…
}
…
void login(String username, String password) {
        usernameInputField << username
        passwordInputField << password
        submitButton.click()


    }

Do you have some idea of what can happens ? 

Thank you

Is the login action synchronous (i.e. using a regular form post) or asynchronous (e.g. using AJAX or part of a single page application)? If you take screenshots at the end of each test (e.g. using GebReportingSpec) do you see the login page or home page when the test fails?

Thanks for your answer .)

The login action is synchronous. 

<form id="login-form" th:action="@{/login}" method="post" class="form form-login">

Apparently, the screenshot says that the test works well.

but the test fail. That's weird.

maybe a timeout problem.

Interesting. Looks like Firefox might not be waiting for the DOM to fully load before returning control to your code after a call to WebDriver#get(String). I've experienced that in the past and had people report it in this group as well. 

I would suggest you enable global at check waiting which was introduced exactly because of this behaviour of Firefox driver. Add the following to your GebConfig.groovy file (you can do that in the environment specific section of it which is used when running with Firefox if you want): 

atCheckWaiting = 1

You can have a look at the section of the manual about waiting in at checkers (http://www.gebish.org/manual/current/#at-check-waiting) to learn more.
