When I try to debug it shows this dialog:
Error dialog
And when I clock "fix" It shows this:
Web Browsers dialog
I can't solve this problem, any suggestion? Also I am developing a react native app. But i don't think that's the problem...
I am running Intellij Idea in Elementary OS.
This is expected - debugging is only supported in Chrome and browsers of the Chrome family, as it's clearly stated in Help. So, when you start the debugger, the IDE will try to open Chrome regardless of the browser chosen in run configuration. You need to make sure that Chrome is installed and the correct path to it is specified in Settings | Tools | Web Browsers.
We used to support Firefox Remote Debugging (but without source maps) through the FireFox Remote run configuration, but our solution doesn't work in the latest Firefox versions due to changes in the protocol, and there doesn't seem to be an easy way to fix it. We've made some progress recently, but there are still some blocking issues

I just got updated to Windows 10 (x64). My old desktop had IE 11 but a lower version, as it was running Windows 7. I now have the following IE version:
Version: 11.648.17134.0
Update Versions: 11.0.115
I downloaded the latest IEDriverServer.exe that Selenium gave me (3.14). When I run it, when I do the get(url) (various urls), afterwards it fails to find elements. I looked and noticed that before the get(), driver.getWindowHandles() had one entry, but after the get() it had zero entries. This is the latest version. I tried setting compatibility mode but that did not do any good (set or not set). The tests will work fine with Chrome but someone else wrote the test and did not verify values were non-null before calling element.sendKeys(str), which IE appears to allow but Chrome throws an exception. And there are so many instances.
So, I need to find the correct IEDriverServer for my Windows 10 IE but I am having trouble doing so. Google did not give me much except it led me to the driver I already downloaded.
Can anyone help?
As a thumb-rule you can always use the released IEDriverServer from the respective released Selenium clients.
As an example,
If you are using Selenium v3.14
Download, extract and use IEDriverServer_Win32_3.14.0.zip or IEDriverServer_x64_3.14.0.zip

However to work with IE11 you have to take care of a couple of things which are beyond the scope of this discussion and are as follows:
How does the registry entry HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\…\FEATURE_BFCACHE for InternetExplorerDriver solves the Internet Explorer 11 issue?
Internet Explorer Protective mode setting and Zoom levels
Selenium InternetExplorerDriver doesn't get focus on the window
How to ignore protected Mode Settings for Internet Explorer using setCapability() through Selenium and Java?
I have a question regarding Selenium and the current Microsoft updates:
I just installed the newest Microsoft patches on a PC and now the Selenium scripts won't work anymore. I'm using the Selenium IE Driver 2.44.0 in the scripts. Maybe something has changed in the Internet Explorer, I'm not sure. Suddenly the scripts can't find any web elements on the page anymore. An InvalidSelectorException is thrown because the findElements methods can't be executed. The IE driver opens up and it navigates to the given URL, but when it tries to find a web element, the script fails. I also tried it out on a PC which hasn't the newest updates installed yet and the scripts are working fine there, there are no problems at all.
Do you have any ideas what to do or what could be the cause?
Thanks a lot!
Yes as I stated here
If you have taken windows update KB3025390 IE will not work as expected. There is currently no resolution to that yet.
Also, Uninstalling the update KB3025390 should make the WebDriver work correctly with Internet Explorer 11. See this answer
Using either 20.0.1387.82 or 22.0.1457.0 (developer)
When I right-click and select Inspect Element, I get a vanilla Developer Tools dialogue:
not the one always pictured:
It looks identical to Chrome's debugger (though I've uninstalled Chrome), most notably absent, the icons on top row and the remote debug facility.
Anyone know how I can get Dragonfly working on my machine?
Opera ditched their Presto rendering engine and built a new browser (also called Opera) around Blink (Google's fork of Webkit). It doesn't support Dragonfly any more.
There are plans to port it to the new browser.
Anyone that has installed the new IE9 know if I can keep IE8 installed? I do a lot of web testing and don't want to update to IE9 if I loose IE8.
best way is to install a Virtual Machine
Per Microsoft:
If you are running Windows Vista or
Windows 7 on your computer, you can
install the Internet Explorer 9 Beta
to replace your existing version of
Internet Explorer. After you install
Internet Explorer 9, you can uninstall
it to restore the previously installed
version of Internet Explorer.
So no, it will overwrite IE8 (at least the Beta will. I suppose this is not guaranteed to be the same for the release version).
I use Virtual PC with images of the browsers I need to test, but also and more lately, IETester, http://www.my-debugbar.com/wiki/IETester/HomePage. It allows you to run multiple versions of IE side by side.
If you want to be able to play with the new features of IE9 without installing the entire browser (which will replace IE8) you can install the Platform Preview. The PP is stand-alone, includes the latest features and bug fixes and has been getting updated roughly every 8 weeks. You can get the latest Platform Preview at:
www.ietestdrive.com
FYI: the production IE 9 does not accurately reproduce IE 8. I've got a CSS issue I'm chasing down now because IE 9's IE 8 mode isn't the same as real IE 8.
If you are concerned with testing how your site looks in IE8/7, you can use the Developer Tools (press F12) to switch the Browser modes and Document modes so that IE9 interacts with the web server as a different user agent, and renders the HTML document according to the version rules.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-sg/ie/ff468705(en-us).aspx#_New_Dev_Tools
IE9 beta is released as a Windows update, so after installing it and playing around, you can remove it from Programs and Features -> Installed Updates, which will recover IE8.
hit f12 on ie9, it will pop up the debug console. In the menu there is a browser mode option where you can set the browser to display as ie8 and a bunch of other versions too.
Also, if you're mouse focus is on the console and you hit ctrl+r, it will clear your browser cache... This is a feature that all the other browser debuggers lack.. ability to quickly clear cache.... I'm rambling now.
The best way to see your site on old versions of IE is that:
If you have IE9+, open your current version of InternetExplorer, press F12, click on "Browser Mode" tab, then choose the version you want.
see screenshot here:
Works better than IE-tester, and easier than using virtual machine.
