Selenium webdriver not working with DOM elements in firefox 24.0 - firefox

Webdriver unable to find elements in firefox 24.0.
The webdriver got stuck after maximizing the window and opening the url.
Trying to find webelement but webdriver does nothing and not giving any error/exception on the console
The same code working on Chrome and with lower version of firefox

This is caused by the incompatible Selenium version - most recent is 2.35 which is probably running only on FF 23. So you have to stick to the FF 23 until the new version of Selenium is released.

I've had a similar issue with the current version of selenium and had to downgrade all the way down to firefox v19 to gain stability.

If you are willing to risk some instability you can grab a dev snapshot that may already have the fix you need. The snapshots are at http://ci.seleniumhq.org/

watir with ruby on ubuntu not connecting

I get the following error:
unable to obtain stable firefox connection in 60 seconds (127.0.0.1:7055)
I am trying to run Rspec with watir, the ruby gem, on an Ubuntu box.
But I keep getting this error on Firefox 42.
I'm not sure what I need to do to resolve this networking issue.
Read the following but I am on a way later version of Firefox:
unable to obtain stable firefox connection in 60 seconds (127.0.0.1:7055)
Unable to obtain stable firefox connection in 60 seconds (127.0.0.1:7055)
gem update selenium-webdriver
Read the following but I am on a way later version of Firefox:
At the first link it says:
[Update - this can (was for me) still be a fix for this issue in 2015
|mdurrant|]
And:
Important note: The selenium-webdriver gem is updated, and a new
version released, for every subsequent version of Firefox. Presently,
version 2.25.0 is needed to support Firefox 15.
But your solutions was:
gem update selenium-webdriver
...which is not my interpretation of those posts. My interpretation is NOT that you always need the latest selenium for whatever version of Firefox you are using--rather they are trying to tell you that you need to match a selenium version to a Firefox version.
And in fact, there is an SO question titled:
Where can I find a definitive Selenium WebDriver to Firefox
Compatibility Matrix?
So, it looks to me like the latest version of selenium does not support Firefox 42. You need to install an earlier version of Firefox.

Which Firefox version is compatible with Selenium 2.48.0

who can help me?
Which Firefox version is compatible with Selenium 2.48.0
Selenium WebDriver 2.48 supports till firefox version 41.0 , For more details please have a look at changelog of selenium webdriver.
Selenium ChangeLOG
Selenium support for Firefox is the latest release, the previous release, the latest ESR release and the previous ESR release.
Selenium 2.48.0 is supported for Firefox from 24 to 41, unless I'm missing something.
I know I have used Selenium 2.47 with Firefox 41. Are you having specific issues with it?

Firefox 37 & Selenium Webdriver 2.45

Are there any known compatibility issues with Firefox 37 & Webdriver 2.45? I am currently using Firefox 36 and Webdriver 2.45 (having had trouble with the prior release of Webdriver). Firefox is requesting that I update to 37.
Better don't do that, in my case after updating firefox to 37 - web driver 2.45 cannot start firefox session...So need to wait for web driver release.
We updated FireFox yesterday to 37.0.1 using selenium-java:2.45.0 from Maven and we have had no issues with any of our tests

Firefox version affects selenium webdriver test cases. What is the reason?

I have updated my Firefox version from v31 to v32. When I created my test cases in .net using web-driver, it was running perfectly in Firefox version 31 but as soon as I have updated my version to 32 it stopped running. It only opens the browser and doesn't navigate to URL. To solve this issue I uninstalled the v32 and installed v31 and its working fine. But I want to run on latest version.
Please advice. Any help would be appreciated.
Selenium WebDriver versions and Firefox versions are tightly coupled.
You need to use a Selenuim WebDriver version which supports Firefox v32. Usually the latest Firefox version supported in a particular Selenium WebDriver release is mentioned in the CHANGELOG.
If memory serves me, I believe Firefox v32 is supported in Selenium 2.43.0

Are selenium 2.16.1 and Firefox 9.0.1 compatible?

is anyboy running selenium 2.16.1 together with Firefox 9.0.1 and therefore can prove that this versions are working together?
I have problems with not executed commands (timeout and not-found log errrors)...
Thanks!
It appears the answer is both yes and no:
Yes, on Linux Selenium 2.16.1 and Firefox 9.0.1 get along just fine.
No, on Windows that same combination causes some serious problems; I observe them as well.
On windows I get good results with Selenium 2.16.1 and Firefox 8.0.1, you could try that. Alternatively, try upgrading to Selenium 2.17.0 (released earlier this week).
