Does Selenium IDE works on MAC OS?

[Parthasarathy Murali]

HI All,

I tried installing Selenium IDE Addon for FF in my MAC OS.

But on opening the selenium ide i see only the menu section, the window is not completely visible. 

I dont see an option to start recording.

Thanks

Sarathy

Yes, it does work on Leopard and Snow Leopard.

Not sure why you are seeing what you are though. Is there any errors in
the FF Error Console (also from the Tools menu)?

Hi Adam

Yes I see

Selenium IDE [WARN] 2010-02-12 21:53:54.728 Recorder: deregister: recorder not found

attached the screenshot of the behavior.

FF  version - 3.5.7

Yes it works well on my mac. However the latest version of Firefox is
not compatible with selenium at this time. (or at least it wasnt when
i checked) You might have to go back a version of firefox to get it
to work correctly. Im using 3.5.7 at the moment.

You can also try the window toolbar option to see if it is hidden
offscreen.

I see from the post below that you are using Firefox 3.5.7. This is
the same version I am using. I just created some automation last night
and it worked fine. So I don't believe the version of Firefox is an
issue.

Which version of Mac OS are you using? Are you on an Intel based Mac
or the older G-series? I am on an Intel Mac with Leopard OS. It could
be the OS is not compatible with the Selenium IDE plugin.

The other possibility is one of the plugins or addons you have
installed does not work with Selenium IDE. To check this, open a
Terminal, cd to /Application/Firefox, cd down until you find firefox-
bin (I think it is in something like /Application/Firefox/MacOS/
Content/). Run ./firefox-bin -P. This will let you create and select
profiles. Create a new profile (I call it selenium) and run it. When
you do this you'll have a Firefox with no plugins. You can then
installed the Selenium IDE and see if it works. If it works then
something you've added to your Default Firefox is interfering with
Selenium IDE.

Selenium IDE work on MAC OS. You may try two things to resolve the problem. 1. Try to re-start your fire fox browser if you still see the issue 2.Try to re-install the selenium IDE and restart your Browser. if installation goes well you can start your browser and Launch the Selenium IDE (Tools >Selenium IDE) you should see Selenium IDE UI . the record tab should display on the top right corner.

Thanks

Thanks for letting us know Sarathy. I actually created a Firefox
profile with very little in it. I disabled checking for updates,
turned off saving passwords and anything else which might interfere
with Selenium. I use this profile when I'm using the Selenium IDE and
when I'm using Selenium RC. Never even thought about how Themes might
affect things.
