Earlier I used this method to add gecko driver:
System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver", "/home/boo/Desktop/java/geckodriver-v0.20.1-linux64/geckodriver");
but the new update (https://selenium.dev/)
https://selenium.org/ --> https://selenium.dev/
Now it redirects so I have no idea how can I download , when I download it saves as .nupke I download from here
selenium.webdriver.geckodriver.0.26.0.nupkg
How can I use this .nupkg?
And there is other 4 method available
package-manager
dotnet-cli
package-reference
paket-cli
I'm using Java Maven for automation in those 4. Which one I have to choose and how can i setup?
PS: earlier I downloaded zip file and extracted and used it
Selenium and GeckoDriver are seperately maintained and published. You can download the required version of GeckoDriver from Releases - mozilla/geckodriver page.

I am using PyCharm to run my robot framework-selenium scripts.
I am facing an issue
SessionNotCreatedException: Message: session not created: This version of ChromeDriver only supports Chrome version 91 Current browser version is 93.0.4577.63 with binary path
Attached are my settings.
How to upgrade chromedriver for Chrome version 93 or any other suggestion. I have 75 automation scripts and it is not feasible to add driver = chrome path in all the scripts.
Browser drivers
The general approach to install a browser driver is downloading a right driver, such as chromedriver for Chrome, and placing it into a directory that is in PATH
Drivers for different browsers can be found via Selenium documentation or by using your favorite search engine with a search term like selenium chrome browser driver. New browser driver versions are released to support features in new browsers, fix bug, or otherwise, and you need to keep an eye on them to know when to update drivers you use.
Alternatively, you can use a tool called WebdriverManagerwhich can find the latest version or when required, any version of appropriate webdrivers for you and then download and link/copy it into right location. Tool can run on all major operating systems and supports downloading of Chrome, Firefox, Opera & Edge webdrivers.
Here's an example:
pip install webdrivermanager
webdrivermanager firefox chrome --linkpath /usr/local/bin
Please go through, here, everything is documented here.
I'm trying to develop my own web scraper via Python on PyCharm but I've found I hit an issue with finding the file name of the web driver extension for Firefox. I went online to go get the version of the zip file but all I got was:
"Sorry, the page /en-US/docs/Web/WebDriver/Clients could not be found."
on https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/WebDriver/Clients which was the link used on https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/WebDriver/Clients under usage: "depends on which WebDriver client you’re using" link.
I'm trying to get the zip file of version 84.0.1(64-bit) of Firefox Browser.
Could anyone help me find this zip file?
https://github.com/mozilla/geckodriver/releases
you can download webdriver in the above link
the compatability chart is
https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/testing/geckodriver/Support.html
The list of all the releases of GeckoDriver can be found at mozilla / geckodriver
However it is recomended to crosscheck the compattibility of the version of GeckoDriver you are downloading as per the matrix below:
This usecase
For firefox version 84.0.1 you can use either of the following version of GeckoDriver:
v0.28.0
v0.27.0
v0.26.0
v0.25.0
Previously I was using Selenium version 2.53 with Firefox version 40.0.1. But now Firefox is updated and I am trying to do with updated version.
So, respond me about "which Selenium JAR is compatible with Mozilla Firefox version 59.0.2 (32-bit)"
As per best practices you must adopt any one from the below mentioned configurations:
I had write a script using selenium in Jmeter. Imported all the packages.
var pkg=JavaImporter(org.openqa.selenium) //import java selenium package
var support_ui=JavaImporter(org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.WebDriverWait)
var ui=JavaImporter(org.openqa.selenium.support.ui)
var wait=new support_ui.WebDriverWait(WDS.browser,5000)
WDS.sampleResult.sampleStart()
WDS.browser.get('https://www.google.com')
WDS.sampleResult.sampleEnd()
to simply open the page.
it doesn't show any results in Listener.
Have you added the relevant Config element, like:
Firefox Driver Config
Chrome Driver Config
Phantom JS Driver Config
or whatever browser you're trying to use?
If yes and you still experience problems - check jmeter.log file - it usually contains enough troubleshooting information. The most common errors are:
libraries conflict. Selenium requires newer HTTP libraries version than JMeter so:
open /lib folder of your JMeter installation
locate .jar files which names start with http
delete duplicate .jar files with lesser version
unsupported browser (mostly affects Firefox). If you're trying to run Selenium test on Firefox - make sure you use one of the supported versions. Latest JMeter Plugins WebDriver Set 1.3.1 comes with Selenium 2.47.0 and according to the changelog it should be:
Supports native events for Firefox version 31 (immediately previous ESR).
Native event support has been discontinued for versions of Firefox later
than 33. Synthetic events tested on Firefox versions 31 (immediately
previous ESR), 38 (immediately previous release and current ESR), and 39
(current release).

I hear that webdriver for Chrome is being re-developed as part of the Chromium project (since the original Chrome webdriver of the selenium project is unusable). Does anyone know if development is complete? If so, where can I find the jars? Has it been pushed to maven central yet?
The new Chrome driver has been checked into the Chromium project tree, and the binaries made available on the Selenium project site. The individual language bindings for the Chrome driver will still be included in the Selenium downloads. Information about what is required to run the new Chrome driver can be found in the project wiki. Note that Chrome 12.0.712.0 or higher is required to work with the new Chrome driver.
The .jars, as of this writing, are not available yet in any Maven repository. You can expect that to change when the next public release of the compiled sources is available. In the interim, you can build from the latest sources yourself.
