[🐛 Bug]: Selenium - Firefox Driver - Button press doesn't work

[Ethan-DSB]

What happened?

I've been running into an issue while using Selenium with Firefox. The script has to navigate to a webpage and then click a button in order to set the store location. However, when it clicks the button it doesn't actually succeed in changing the store.

I also converted the script to use the ChromeDriver instead and it worked perfectly. I don't understand why it's having this issue on Firefox. I've included version numbers and my script below.

Video of the script failing: https://streamable.com/73oa74

How can we reproduce the issue?

import random
import time
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.firefox.options import Options as FirefoxOptions
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as ec
from selenium.webdriver.common.action_chains import ActionChains
from selenium.webdriver.firefox.service import Service as FirefoxService

# Specify the path to the GeckoDriver executable
geckodriver_path = r'C:\Users\LAPTOP-EDB\Desktop\geckodriver.exe'

# Create a FirefoxService instance with the executable path
service = FirefoxService(executable_path=geckodriver_path)

options = FirefoxOptions()
options.add_argument("--log-level=3")
options.add_argument("--window-size=800,500")

# Set permissions.default to 0 to accept any permissions requested by the website
options.set_preference('permissions.default', 0)

# Create a Firefox WebDriver instance using the service and options
driver = webdriver.Firefox(service=service, options=options)

driver.get("https://www.extrafoods.ca/store-locator/details/9021")

set_store_button = WebDriverWait(driver, 15).until(
    ec.element_to_be_clickable((By.CSS_SELECTOR, ".location-pickup-confirmation__actions__set-store"))
)

time.sleep(3)  # wait 3 seconds after the button becomes interactable

actions = ActionChains(driver)
actions.click(set_store_button).perform()

time.sleep(random.uniform(6, 8))  # Wait for the action to complete after clicking

driver.quit()

If it works in Chrome and not Firefox, you must report this to Mozilla.
