Im new to automated testing and im trying to record a particualr scenario using firefox selenium IDE (Fireforx version : 26 ans selenium IDE version : 2.5). A couple of days I was able to record and play that scenario. But when I try doing the same today, it does not record anything and all i see is a plain window (no commands). But google, wikipedia, gmail everything gets recorded fine. There are no changes to the application and it is the same. (imacros are able to record). I have tried reinstalling firefox, selenium IDE and even restarted my machine. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

USING:
currently latest Protractor 3.3.0
Firefox is 45
Mac OS X Yosemite
ISSUE:
So I've been trying to figure out when this slowness occurred. Pretty much everything is running very slow. I have a login page that used to take around 5 seconds now it's taking almost 3 times longer.
WHAT I'VE TRIED
I did find a setting that seemed to make things work like how I expected them to work for the login page but then it messes things up on other tests because it's not waiting long enough.
the only way i've been able to speed it up was the setting mentioned above
exports.config.capabilities.pageLoadingStrategy = "eager";
I have tried via browser stack on firefox 45 and on windows 7 and mac osx Yosemite but the problem seems to be there still. I also tried reverting to protractor 3.0 and 2.51 to see if that made a difference. I tried using older firefox browsers like 43 and 44. I can't seem to find much on the issue. I don't know if it's possible to somehow set the pageLoadingStrategy to eager and then once logged in back to normal? Any suggestions on how to speed up firefox are appreciated.
Firefox takes almost 3 times longer than chrome.
CHROME
FIREFOX
It looks like you are running Chrome with directConnect and Firefox without.
You can avoid starting up the selenium server and run Firefox in directConnect too:
directConnect: true - Your test script communicates directly Chrome Driver or Firefox Driver, bypassing any Selenium Server.
The advantage of directly connecting to browser drivers is that your test scripts may start up and run faster.
If I use firefox directConnect: true.
Then browser.action() is not working. It give error Http method not allowed
I have installed the latest version(11.2) of Oracle Endeca Commerce. I deploy an application and everything works fine except that when I click on the experience manager icon, it starts loading the content but it never finishes.
I tried reinstall all components again and again but with no result.
Any suggestions will be really appreciated.
Thanks.
This issue is related to Adobe flash player installation. I was getting the same issue in Mozilla and Chrome but IE 10 worked fine.
Try switching browser and see. This issue is nothing to do with Endeca installation or logs.
After many tests with many old versions of Firefox (3.0.19, 3.6.28, 10.0.2) I have some trouble.
My last test was to launch "selenium-server-standalone-2.24.1.jar" with this args : -firefoxProfileTemplate C:\Users\XXXXXXXX\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\g3c1ac71.Profile_FF_10
In this profile I have configured language to French but it doesn't work, my website is display in English. I also had an SSL exception but when selenium launch my site, Firefox give me an alert about selfsigned certificate
With version 3.0.19, profile was used but Firefox crashed because of Flash plugin, so I know I know use profile.
It's really hard to understand compatibilty between selenium and Firefox.
Is this a special step I forgot ?

After I reboot my computer, all work like a charm. Strange !
After a recent upgrade to Firefox 4, all of my automated selenium tests seem to be hanging on the initial 'Launching Firefox...' command during testing.
Has anyone seen a fix for this, or is my best bet to downgrade?
Have you updated to Selenium 2.0b3? Earlier versions don't support FF4.
** EDIT* *
RC2 is now available:
http://code.google.com/p/selenium/downloads/list
I was having the same issue. 'Launching Firefox' command, a blank Firefox window opens and the test hangs. Looking at the Firefox Add-ons the three extensions that Selenium installs were all incompatible and disabled. Turns out my test was still accidentally starting up the wrong selenium version. Switching to 2.0b3 fixed the issue.
Recommend you to use latest version of selenium with firefox 4. for me it is working fine withoutany problem.
I am using :
Selenium Server : selenium-server-2.0b2
I hope it helps.
Isn't it always the way, I'm finally ready to start using Selenium to test my web changes, and now I can't get it to work.
Subject line may say it all: environment is Ubuntu 10.04, Selenium components are all the most recent ones available. I'm trying to reproduce the Google example used in RC, using both RC and IDE. There are two failure modes:
By far the most common is that "click" doesn't ever seem to click. Selenium executes the clic, but the page never changes.
A couple of times (when messing around with little changes to see if it fixes anything), clicks do seem to go through; but then Selenium doesn't appear to detect the page change on WaitForPage (I'll try to isolate one of these).
I've tried RC with Ruby, Perl and Java, and I get variations on this behavior. Since FF is my primary platform, I haven't yet tried to see if any other browser works...
Thanks.
Upgrade to 1.0.9
