Selenium install Marionette webdriver

Question

I have this issue with firefox version 47 https://github.com/seleniumhq/selenium/issues/2110

So, i have tried to add Marionette web driver to fix it: https://develop

Answer 1

In addition to the other two answers, you probably don't want to change the PATH system wide since you need it only when running the tests. A way to have the right PATH only when you need it is to set it in code:

os.environ["PATH"] += os.pathsep + 'path/to/dir/containing/geckodriver/'

A simpler workaround would be to simple move the geckodriver binary to the directory you already have in your path:

mv geckodriver /usr/local/bin

Answer 2

I ran into this issue and can confirm that firefox_capabilities['binary'] should point to the Firefox binary, not to GeckoDriver. The Python example in the Mozilla WebDriver documentation has been clarified on this topic.

Answer 3

the firefox binary capability you're setting points to the firefox binary, not the marionette driver binary. You need to add /Users/myproject/geckodriver-0.8.0-OSX to your path as follows:

Open a terminal and run this command

export PATH=$PATH:/Users/myproject/geckodriver-0.8.0-OSX
