.side success ine selenium IDE but fails when testing with side runner + grid or side runner +selenoid

[Thibault Dietlin]

Hello there,

I'm new in selenium testing. I'm recording my automation tests with selenium side runner both Chrome and Firefox  are working well when I replay my tests into Selenium IDE.

I got a selenium grid with latest chrome, firefox, MicrosoftEdge, and safari (binded host) drivers but playing many tests are taking a bunch of time, so I went to use a Selenoid docker to plays those tests faster.

When I'm playing tests with chrome, no problem on IDE, grid or selenoid.

When I'm playing tests with Selenium IDE for Firefox no problem every test pass,  but I'm running the same tests with grid or selnoid it breaks. I'm passing a lot of time to try to change IDs, xpath, css selectors etc. manually  to find a way to make my tests succeed through grid  or selenoid with firefox driver. 

Is there any way to set my tests to pass without trying to change every command empirically ?

Here is my command to run my .side file through grid or selenoid : 

selenium-side-runner -w 5 --server http://localhost:4444/wd/hub -c "browserName=firefox" tests.side 

Here is my IDE on firefox where tests pass : 

Here is my test passing  with chrome on grid (ive divided the test suites to be more clear) : 

And the same tests working on Selenium IDE firefox but failing with grid (the first testsuite pass the second fails every time) : 

If you know a tips or a setting it would be very appreciated 

Thanks for any help

Best regards
