Hi,

you have to setup a separately running Selenium Server for that.

Something like:

%JAVA_HOME%\bin\java.exe -cp %CLASSPATH% %* org.openqa.grid.selenium.GridLauncher -role node -port 5555 -browser browserName=firefox,version=16,maxInstances=5,platform=WINDOWS,firefox_binary=Q:\dev\browser\firefox16\firefox.exe,seleniumProtocol=WebDriver

At the Open Browser keyword you then specify  the remote parameter:

    Open Browser    ${Url}    firefox    default    http://localhost:5555/wd/hub

Hope that helps.

Markus

Ugh

Starting from SeleniumLibrary 3.1.0 it's possible to pass desired capabilities also for local browser. According the Selenium documentation, one can configure the Firefox binary by using desired capabilities: https://github.com/SeleniumHQ/selenium/wiki/DesiredCapabilities#firefox-specific.
