I use JMeter WebDriver Sampler (JMeter v4.0) for Chrome Driver (where I specify the path to chromedriver in jp#gc - Chrome Driver Config), and it works.
Now I want to try with latest Firefox Browser (FF Quantum v59.0), but it doesn't work. FF browser is opened but it doesn't go further, ex WDS.browser.get('http://jmeter-plugins.org') is not executed.
It seems JMeter WebDriver Sampler doesn't catch up with geckodriver and changes of FF. I google it, but I don't find any info on this regard. Does anyone know any update on this? Is there any workaround? Thanks
You should look at JMeter Firefox Driver Config plugin restrictions:
the latest Firefox version may not work with the latest WebDriver set. The table below describes the version of Firefox that is compatible with JMeterPlugins:
Current version is compatible only with version 26 of Firefox
Also firefox jmeter addon is not compatible
This add-on is not compatible with your version of Firefox.
Not compatible with Firefox Quantum
The jmeter firefox driver config is only compatible with firefox 26, 33 and the latest is 45 and 46.
You cannot use the version of firefox which is greater than 46.0
Did you add the geckodriver file path in environment variable "Path". If not try that. I am using latest firefox with Jmeter Webdriver and is working for me.

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 need launch Firefox browser with selenium 3.3.0 version.
Is any way to launch without geckodriver ?
For Selenium 2.x later versions it is mandatory to use gecko-driver for Firefox browser. If you don't want to use gecko-driver use selenium 2.x(2.53) version
I'm trying to do testing with Selenium 2 and phpunit. I'm using selenium-server-standalone-2.53.1.jar and launch the test firefox opens blank and does nothing.
phpunit gives this message:
PHPUnit_Extensions_Selenium2TestCase_WebDriverException: Unable to connect to host 127.0.0.1 on port 7055 after 45000 ms. Firefox console output
Can anyone tell me what happens? Thmks.
Use geckodriver.
You need geckodriver for running tests in latest Firefox browsers. Firefox doesn't support Firefox driver anymore.
Download geckodriver and place it in PATH
Use Selenium 3.0 for running tests
Or use Firefox 47.* or 45 ESR with the old driver.
Background
Firefox release 48.0 states the following:
Add-ons that have not been verified and signed by Mozilla will not load
Firefox driver fell under this category, and it had no chances of passing verification without being re-written. Geckodriver, though, is built in the same way as Chromedriver and IEdriver are, and kinda works.

I am trying to execute webdriver script from jmeter.
I have installed webdriver plugin.
Created firefox config element and web driver sampler.
Added script under webdriver sampler -
WDS.sampleResult.sampleStart()
WDS.browser.get('http://google.com')
WDS.sampleResult.sampleEnd()
But while executing, browser is not opening.
I'm pretty much sure that you have Firefox version which is not supported by underlying Selenium libraries.
WebDriver Sampler plugin 1.2.1 supports Firefox 33
WebDriver Sampler plugin 1.2.0 supports Firefox 26
If you need the latest Firefox for any other reason you can have Firefox 26 or 33 installed somewhere else. Just add the following line to system.properties file (lives under /bin folder of your JMeter installation)
webdriver.firefox.bin=/path/to/your/firefox/directory
See The WebDriver Sampler: Your Top 10 Questions Answered guide for more WebDriver sampler tips and tricks.
Jmeter only supports some of the versions of Firefox to run Jmeter-webdriver script. Use firefox 45.0 it will work like pro.
The Installation of firefox should be in the default directory, do not custome the path of Firefox 45.0.
I am getting the below error when i am running the selenium script.

You are using selenium version that doesn't support Firefox version 32.
And since currently there is no selenium java package version that claiming support for Firefox 32, you need to downgrade your browser. In your case, downgrade it to Firefox 28, which is listed as supported by selenium 2.42.2.

Please upgrade to 2.43.1 [http://www.seleniumhq.org/download/]. The new version works for FF32.
You can follow link below in the future for check supported versions FF vs. WebDriver.
I use it if I want to update browser or webdriver library.
