I have a project suite of automation tests that uses Protractor and Jasmine. As of a couple months ago, my tests stopped working in FireFox. Everything works perfectly in Chrome, and almost perfectly in IE.. because why would IE work ya know.
There have been multiple posts about this and I've read through all of them, but I haven't been able to determine if there's a workaround/solution to this. It's not entirely a HUGE deal if my tests run in FireFox, but with a web application it's mighty nice to be able to test all instances.
Basically what happens when I run a test in FireFox:
Command prompt acts like everything is about to run properly (FireFox driver starts up.. server remains running etc etc)
Firefox opens for a split second (icon appears on the task bar, browser flashes on the screen and closes)
After a good minute or so protractor gives me the following message:
[firefox #01-0] WebDriverError: Unable to connect to host XXX on port XXX
after 45000 ms.
With a ton of DEBUG lines referring to JSON files and Firefox addons.
Any thoughts or other sources I could check out would be sweet. Many thanks in advance.
Problem is with latest Firefox support from latest selenium-server. Use geckoDriver and it will work.

I am writing test scripts in Selenium IDE for my application but everytime when I run the test suite it opens up browser and performs all the actions and logs failures, if any. My requirement is to invoke the test script from command prompt using .bat file and generate a test report. I am able to do the same but the problem is firefox opens up and executes the test case one by one. Can anyone please suggest me how to disable Firefox window from opening up? Or is it just not possible to do so? Or do I need to switch to Selenium Webdriver in order to achieve my requirement? My application contains Ajax upto a lot of extent.
I have read many commands used in Selenium IDE but I could not find any command which can serve this purpose. Please suggest!
If you know any programming language supported by selenium-webdriver (Ruby, Java, Python, C#) then you should try PhantomJS WebDriver which allow to run scripts without opening visual browser session
Selenium-IDE are mean to invoke browser, that's how the script react to all the exact browser behavior.
Only selenium Webdriver allow you to run your browser under "Headless" mode, which in fact, put Firefox under X-virtual frame buffer in background, as above #Andersson suggested.
Unfortunately, there is no easy way to convert your Selenium-IDE script to your desire programming language at the moment.
If your concern is about "cluttered screen" in OS such as ubuntu, then your solution will be export the whole Selenium-IDE and firefox under another virtual X-display.
I had redhat Linux server command line but there is no GUI for that and I need to run selenium code on this server with firefox. As I am new to selenium so I am not sure whether it will work or not.
For achieving this I had install Firefox on my Redhat linux machine successfully but not able to trigger that as it is showing no display found.
Is there any other way to achieve this for headless browsing, where virtually a firefox will be opened and selenium code can be executed without GUI. Is it possible to do??
You can use HtmlUnitDriver of selenium to use headless browsing but it will not open firefox and may be not loading all content to it's cache as same as firefox
Refer Below:-
https://code.google.com/p/selenium/wiki/HtmlUnitDriver
Another thing you can use is Phantomjs with selenium Webdriver. This is most using pattern by industries for headless browsing
Refer below:-
http://www.guru99.com/selenium-with-htmlunit-driver-phantomjs.html
Yes you can trigger selenium file using command line
http://www.tutorialspoint.com/testng/testng_executing_tests.htm
Bash file is running fine in windows for testng but it is not working in linux/mac
Now if still your firefox is not opening then it is basically issue of some setting with your OS with firefox
Refer that too :-

May be you have problem with some permission in red hat
Hope it will help you :)
Trying to port selenese commands from the Selenium IDE to a cron-usable task, and have gotten as far as getting these to run with Webdriver's HTMLSuite command using a local installation of Firefox. However, we need these to run without opening a visual browser - as we're already using PhantomJS elsewhere in the application this seemed like the logical option rather than going down the XVFB route.
Is this possible? I've tried a variety of commands but keep getting errors of phantomjs not being an accepted browser.
I have recorded scripts through Selenium IDE and converted them to JUnit 4 Webdriver scripts.
Of course converted scripts had to be changed to run smoothly as Junits. Now my next goal is to make these scripts run on CI, So obviously I need some headless browser for this purpose. I found some threads, but I am looking for Junits specifically.
What could be the best solution/approach for this, any help in this regard is appreciated.
Take a look at PhantomJS. It is a headless WebKit-based browser and there is Selenium WebDriver for that called GhostDriver.
That's what i use and is OK but there is also the option of using a headed browser like Firefox or Chrome and then use Xvfb to ignore screen output.
