i tried execute script in webdriver following latest versions of eclipse, selenium server , firefox, firefox gets executed , script not execute further:
- eclipse luna service release 2 (4.4.2)
- selenium jar selenium-server-standalone-2.45.0
- firefox 36.0.4 , firefox 38 beta version
however, when used firefox 32.0, scripts runs completely.
what technical reason behind non-compatibility of latest firefox version latest eclipse , selenium jar?
please see here in changelog. seems mozilla has rewritten of there apis not available selenium relied on this.
v2.45.0
important changes in release:
- native events in firefox relied on api mozilla no longer provides. such, fall synthesized events on recent firefox
versions.
i have been looking latest firefox version supported. other people have found same problem , rolling using v35.0.1 see here
