I'm trying some S-IDE tests in Firefox 4 beta 7 that work fine in 3.6. One thing I can't seem to figure out is an automated way to interact with FF4's new built-in dialog:
Anybody solve this one yet?
Apparently running the test once and manually clicking the button causes it to not trip up in subsequent runs.
Please refer below link.
Firefox 4 confirmation dialog in selenium 2.0b3
I am also facing the same problem and still waiting for the solution. I recommend to downgrade Firefox or wait for the solution.

Is this possible at all? MozREPL is now apparently incompatible with this version of Firefox, but Firefox is very hard to stop updating.
I want to automate a browser again, not a headless one.
Is there any browser I can use at all, where i can just simply read the page HTML and automate form submission?
That's it really, last time I done this, Firefox was good for this.
Thanks
If you are on linux, you can downgrade to 54, and hold the update. Firefox will complain about not being able to update, but that's it.
Other possible solution should be a container with firefox 54 installed, but I did not have the time to try it out. The script(s) should be run inside the docker, I suppose.
I've got a Selenium test which crashes my browser (Firefox) whenever it runs. It's just a simple test (login, logout, login, logout, login ... crash) and I can't reproduce the crash when I do the same things manually, so I think the problem is with Selenium itself.
However, the issue could be that my Firefox starts with different options than when Selenium starts it. I could confirm that's not the case if I could start Firefox the exact same way Selenium starts it (eg. without plug-ins, with all history cleared, etc.) ... but I'm not sure how to do that.
Can anyone tell me which options to use to make Firefox run the same way as when Selenium runs it?
I was never able to find out how to emulate Selenium's use of Firefox. I tried using a fresh Firefox profile, but that still seemed to have differences from how Selenium ran Firefox.
Instead I wound up re-writing my test to be two tests, and then it was able to log in/out twice in the first test and once in the second test, avoiding the issue I was trying to debug (which only manifests when I try to log in/out 3 times in the same test).
If anyone can provide a better explanation of how to emulate Selenium's running of Firefox I'd be happy to accept that answer.
I have some SeleniumWebdriver/TestNG tests that Im successfully running on FireFox. If I am watching the tests run, it is okay.
But If I start using another browser in the meanwhile, or skype for example, and I go back to the FireFox window that is running the tests, I always find out that some error has occurred - for example, the "User name" input hasnt been filled out.
Why does this happen, and how can I prevent it?
Try to use driver.switchTo().window(driver.getWindowHandle()); when filling out the form.
Hi I met a strange issue which didn't show before when I use Selenium IDE to record some tests.
It doesn't get the url automatically when Selenium IDE is opened.
Which is the critical problem: once I stop the recording or play the test case which would stop the recording as well, it no longer records any additional action when I click again the recording button.
I'm not sure whether this is the problem of Selenium IDE or some problem with my Firefox. What I use is Selenium IDE 1.9.1, and Firefox 17, and there's no such problem when the first time I used it a couple of days ago.
Many thanks for the help.
Check this link.
Firefox 17 will be supported in upcoming selenium ide 1.10.0. So, better downgrade your firefox to 15 for better functioning of selenium ide 1.9.1
Just for record, I have fixed the issue in Selenium IDE v2.3.0, which should be released soon. See http://code.google.com/p/selenium/issues/detail?id=5820
I'm trying out the recorder of the latest Selenium IDE Firefox extension on win32/ff3.
On one page, currently I have to hit Enter to go to the next page, but it's not on a submit button, it's captured manually. This is not picked up by the recorder. I know I can enter it manually myself after recording, but why isn't this part of it?
From the Selenium FAQ:
http://wiki.openqa.org/display/SIDE/FAQ
"Not every event will be recorded by Selenium IDE. Usually the ones that won't be recorded are those that involve complex HTML and/or AJAX. We hope to improve this over time, but there will always be situations where the IDE can't record everything because it has to balance recording too little with too much."
Have you tried with a different browser? Does it happen the same in FF2, IE ?
Use the latest nightly version. I know that there are some problems with FF3.
