It looks like the Geckodriver for Firefox browser has not been ready yet?

[SeleniumWhat?]

  Hi All,

  I tried out the latest versions of Gecko Driver and FF v55 as well as selenium-sever-standalone and I got this error message:

[main] ERROR net.thucydides.core.webdriver.WebDriverFacade - FAILED TO CREATE NEW WEBDRIVER_DRIVER INSTANCE class org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver: Could not instantiate new WebDriver instance of type class org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver (Could not start a new session. Possible causes are invalid address of the remote server or browser start-up failure.

 But I do not see - before this error - how Gecko Driver activates the selenium-server-standalone.  I expect to see some message like this:

 

  <some server session ID> Marionette  INFO Listening on port <some port number>

 I do not know what actually took place but my guess is that Gecko Driver failed to kick off the selenium-server-standalone and thus it rendered the FF session useless?  I wish I could know how to debug the execution... arggg!!!!

  The error message above suggests that the "WebDriverFacade" was trying to take over the FireFox Driver via Gecko Driver and it failed (?).

   Have anyone succeeded getting these things run together?

   Any one knows if the Gecko Driver v 0.18 works with FF v55.x?  or they are still in the trial phase?

  

   Any one kind enough to share your working versions and your POM.xml?

  Thanks a lot guys!  And have a good nite and good weekend!  I give it up for now ;-).  Will be back :-)

  

 J.N

  PS: I'll still trying to figure how John's sample demo works with Chrome Driver first.. then hopefully I can figure out how the Gecko Driver works with FF v55 and selenium-server-standalone v3.5.x

  

   

 

 

  

[Baskar chinnakonda]

Instead of  selenium-server-standalone v3.5.x Use v3.4 - this will work

[SeleniumWhat?]

Bakska,

  Thanks for the tip.  Will do!

  J.N

[SeleniumWhat?]

Hi Baksa,

  It still failed with the same error message.

  Would you kindly share your working configuration (POM.xml)?

  Thanks

  Hi John,

  I'm on macOS Sierra version 10.12.2

  In next post, I will list the details of my system config so you can help diagnose the problems. 

  Thanks a lot John!

Place the Mac OS binaries for Chrome Driver (chromedriver_mac64.zip) and GeckoDriver (geckodriver-v0.18.0-macos.tar.gz) in /usr/local/bin.

Hi Baska,

  Thanks a lot for your working POM.xm.  I'll try it out.

  It looks like I need some update on other libs.

  I also recognize that you use the SOAP for your WS testing.  It's quite  interesting.... I need to learn how to do that too :-).  Might need you help to guide me through the WS testing.  

  J.N

[SeleniumWhat?]

Hi Baska,

  You defined this

  <systemPropertyVariables>

     <webdriver.driver>${webdriver.driver}</webdriver.driver>

 </systemPropertyVariables>

 

but you did not state what type of "${webdriver.driver}" is in the POM.xml.  I'm wondering where you defined it or you just missed the declaration of the web driver type?  Or you read it from the "serenity.properties" files?  I have not run against your POM.xml yet... just curious how to did that?

  Will let you know of my testing of your POM.xml.

  Thanks again!

  J.N

[SeleniumWhat?]

 Hi Baska,

  Tried it out.  It gets better but still it was not able to kick of the Marionette server.  it's getting better though.  The FF browser it brings up is active now.  It seems to be able to hook the browser session to some kind of server(?).  I can search the web via that browser instance(session).

  Here is the error messages (first few lines), may be John can help!.:

  It is possible that the OS is the problem here.  I'm using macOS Sierra v10.X.

Did you place the geckodriver binary in /usr/local/bin? Can you run "geckodriver --version" from the command line?

Hi John,

  Sorry to get back to you this late.  Was out to lunch.

  No I have not got a chance to do that yet; however the OS does see the driver files which i placed under the "Applications" folder and in the $PATH

  1 - For Gecko Driver;

   - Macbook:~ john$ which geckodriver

/Applications/geckodriver

Macbook:~ john$ geckodriver --version

 So... I will move them to the the /user/local/bin as you suggested and see if Serenity can pick them up

 Will let you know the results

 Thanks for your help John!

Hi John,

  

  Like the previous test results, Serenity was able to kick off the chrome driver server, bing up the chrome browser and goto the desired base URL, but then it erred out real quick.

  If it is possible would you please help build your demo project for Firefox browser?  I really appreciate if you could help! but I will continue to figure it out on my part.

[John Smart]

I've just updated to the latest version on GitHub, but we already use the demo project as our smoke tests running on Chrome and Firefox on Windows, Mac and Linux; they should run just fine with Firefox. How are you running the tests?

[SeleniumWhat?]

  Hi John

  How am I running the tests?  that's a good question.

  I went back, set up the maven config file and ran the whole project as maven then it works... yeeeehaaaa it works ;-)

  but if I run the test as each individual Gherkin feature then it errs out.  The reason why I'm sure.  I can guess it is because there are some dependencies ?  but I don't think it is the case, isn't?

  My understanding is that each feature file must be self-contain and acts as an independent test case... then why running individual feature file is failing?

  Any way.. every good progress!  love it :-).

  Now I want to switch the browser type to Firefox.  Let me run the test with Gecko and Firefox browser.  Is there anything different that I need to set up before I can switch the config?

  Thanks a lot John.  You're my hero! :-)

  J.N

[John Smart]

How are you running the tests from the Gherkin files?

Hi John,

  I changed the browser type in the "serenity.properties" to "webdriver.driver=firefox"

  But the execution still picked up the Chrome browser.  Would you tel me where/how to set it up for the FF v55.x?

  Thanks John!

  J.N

[John Smart]

Update the serenity.conf file instead (the demo project shows a couple of different ways of configuring Serenity).

Hi John,

  Where can I find  the serenity.conf file?

  The instructions on how to config the browser type are on the project's README?

  Thanks

  J.N

[SeleniumWhat?]

Never mind.. found it.

Thanks

J.N

[SeleniumWhat?]

I changed the "driver = firebox" but it erred out .. arggg...

I also change the gecko option

#gecko.firefox.options={"binary": "/Applications/Firefox-49.1.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox-bin","log":{"level":"debug"}}

gecko.firefox.options={"binary": "/Applications/Firefox.app","log":{"level":"debug"}}

  The "/Applicaitons/Firefox.app" is the FF browser v55.X

=======================

I'll your update and see if makes any different!

The path to Firefox should be something like /Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox-bin

Hi John,

  I set the gecko.firefox.options to what you recommended but it still failed.

#gecko.firefox.options={"binary": "/Applications/Firefox-49.1.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox-bin","log":{"level":"debug"}}

gecko.firefox.options={"binary": "/Applications/Firefox_55.0.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox-bin","log":{"level":"debug"}}

  I found an error message on console that says: 

 "Caused by: org.openqa.selenium.WebDriverException: Cannot find firefox binary in PATH. Make sure firefox is installed. OS appears to be: MAC"

  It seems to look for the FF binary set in the $PATH (not from the serenity.properties file)?  I'll try to set the $PATH and see how it works.

   Thanks John!

I was able to kick off the FF from the path that I set in $PATH:

Macbook:~ john$ echo $PATH

/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/Users/john/apache-maven-3.5.0/bin:/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_101.jdk/Contents/Home/bin:/Applications:/Applications/WebDrivers:/usr/local/bin:/Applications/Firefox_55.0.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox-bin

Macbook:~ john$ /Applications/Firefox_55.0.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox-bin

So selenium seems to look for the FF binary in some other place.  Where is the other place?

hmmmmm....

Hi John,

       Is it possible you could help to bring all of the drivers (Gecko, Chrome, Firefox, etc..) setting and the browser types setting up to the POM.xml level so that the user can configure/customize them?

      Just asking... I know you must have good reasons to make the setting not to be system dependent but I found it harder to configure/debug them without seeing how the drivers were initialized.

      Thanks John!

If you put this in the Pom.xml file you cause big problems for CI and for other developers, so it is a big antipattern.
