Hello Behat/Mink community. I am using the latest Behat/Mink version and I am very happy with it. Thanks for the hard work improving this framework.

Where I am missing out knowledge is how to make the latest Firefox versions work together with Behat and Mink. I use an almost 2 years FF version right now but would like to use what normal customers are using: Versions NOT 2 years old.

I know that the issues are related to the introduction of Selenium 3 (which I like a lot) and I also use Behat/Mink in a Docker setup (https://github.com/SeleniumHQ/docker-selenium). Chrome works fine btw. .

I saw different ideas on stackoverflow and other forums to use Goutte instead of selenium 2 to drive Firefox, but I got the error message with all browser infos, but that it cannot be used. I was spending already around 6 hours in research to make this happen.

What is right now holding us back to use the latest Firefox? Is there a way how we could contribute to code to make it happen? What do we need? I think if there is a clear to do, we as Mink users are having a change to implement support, but we need to understand the issue first in detail.

Thanks to all contributors of Behat and Mink!

On MinkExtension, there is no next step, because the Behat extension are not involved at all.

the discussion are happening in the repository of the Mink driver: https://github.com/minkphp/MinkSelenium2Driver/issues (mostly https://github.com/minkphp/MinkSelenium2Driver/issues/293 for that case)
