Protractor test is not starting on Firefox #886

Closed acostaf closed 10 years ago

acostaf commented 10 years ago

I have got a set of test that run fine on chrome but when I change the capabilities browserName from chrome to firefox don't even get a error info

Before capabilities: { 'browserName': 'chrome', 'chromeOptions': { args: ['--test-type', 'show-fps-counter=true'] } },

//After capabilities: { 'browserName': 'firefox' },

juliemr commented 10 years ago

Silly question, but do you have firefox installed on your machine? What sort of output do you get?

acostaf commented 10 years ago

Hi Julie

I do, I have got version 29 installed, the funny thing that I am not getting any error, just firefox passed and then returns.

juliemr commented 10 years ago

Any output from the selenium standalone?

acostaf commented 10 years ago

Nothing that is the funny thing, does not do anything

Hi

I found the problem with firefox, basically my protractor config was not using any webdriver server setting but was using the default server, this way was quite handy since did not have start selenium by my self

In order to fix this issue I am starting selenium server by myself specifying firefox and chrome drivers

java -jar "C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules\protractor\selenium\selenium-server-standalone-2.42.1.jar" -Dwebdriver.chrome.driver="C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules\protractor\selenium\chromedriver.exe" -Dwebdriver.firefox.bin="C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe"

juliemr commented 10 years ago

Ah, OK. The problem was that your firefox is not in the default location (as described on the FirefoxDriver page). Glad you got it sorted out!

calystoramesh commented 10 years ago

I have a same problem , firefox is installed in the default location "c:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" in windows XP,

capabilities: { 'browserName': 'firefox' },

Using the selenium server at http://127.0.0.1:4444/wd/hub [launcher] Running 1 instances of WebDriver[launcher] firefox passed

Process finished with exit code 1

my test script is not execute. Please help me

note : In chrome it's working fine

acostaf commented 10 years ago

Selenium console should tell you what is going in on with it, try to start you own selenium in order to see selenium error messages java -jar "C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules\protractor\selenium\selenium-server-standalone-2.42.1.jar" -Dwebdriver.firefox.bin="c:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe"

Hi @nareshsurya!

I recently encountered the same error as you. The quick fix solution for me was to uninstall Firefox 47 and downgrade to Firefox 36. You can find older versions of Firefox here: https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/

I'm using selenium-webdriver 2.47.0. I'm not sure which is the latest version of Firefox that is supported, but just wanted to give you a quick fix at the moment! Perhaps someone can please expand upon this!

Thank you!

freakaziod210 commented 8 years ago

@b-mcrae I love you!! I have been stumped on this for a few hours. My tests were working fine yesterday but when I ran them today they weren't. I guess Firefox updated somewhere in between.

pyVarad commented 8 years ago

The firefox browser pops up but there is no response after that. The url doesn't get updated nor anything. After the timeout it would close the browser and tests abort. Please find below the logs. Any suggestion would be helpful.

Steps followed.

  1. Installed webdriver manager
  2. Installed npm install -g protractor@latest protractor version is 4.0.3

Any solution to the last error? I am experiencing the same!

m-ajitabh commented 8 years ago

Protractor is running on Firefox

I am using FireFox v44.01, with following settings:-

protractor.conf.js capabilities: { 'browserName': 'chrome', chromeOptions: { args: ['disable-extensions'] } , "browserName": "firefox", "firefoxbinary": "C:/Program Files/Mozilla Firefox/firefox", "binary": "C:/Program Files/Mozilla Firefox/firefox" },

and its running fine with Firefox. before starting with Firefox, disable the auto update of Firefox.

kathy-ems commented 8 years ago

What would be the equivalent of this on a mac?

"browserName": "firefox",
"firefox_binary": "C:/Program Files/Mozilla Firefox/firefox",
"binary_": "C:/Program Files/Mozilla Firefox/firefox"

I tried, but it didn't work

    firefox_binary: '../../../../../Applications/firefox_v34',
    binary_: '../../../../../Applications/firefox_v34',

Error

[firefox #2]   var template = new Error(this.message);

m-ajitabh commented 8 years ago

Locate where an executable of firefox is coming from the filesystem and write the fullpath. The way you wrote the path, it seems fuzzy. So search on internet for the binary location of firefox on mac and fix your problem.

7stud commented 7 years ago

Mac OSX 10.10.5 Firefox 50.1.0 (In whatever location the installer put it.)

I'm having the same problem with Firefox launching, never navigating to the url, not running any tests, then timing out. Everything works fine in Chrome 55.0.2883.95 (64-bit).

I'm following the protractor tutorial, and Step 3 asks me to add Firefox to conf.js:

// conf.js
exports.config = {
  framework: 'jasmine',
  seleniumAddress: 'http://localhost:4444/wd/hub',
  specs: ['spec.js'],
  capabilities: {
    browserName: 'firefox'
  }
}

Here is the output when I do $ webdriver-manager start:

m-ajitabh's solution didn't work for me. You can get the path to your firefox executable this way:

  1. In Finder go into the Applications folder.
  2. Right click on Firefox.app and choose Show Package Contents.
  3. Click on the disclosure triangle for the Contents Folder.
  4. Click on the disclosure triangle for the MacOS folder.
  5. In the MacOS folder, the firefox file with the black screen icon to the left is the executable. You can right click on it and choose Get Info to confirm that. (There is also a firefox-bin executable).
  6. If the firefox file is selected, the full path is shown on the bottom of the Finder window. Rather than typing all that out by hand, you can drag the firefox file onto a terminal window, and when you release the full path will be entered at the point of the cursor. You can then copy the path and paste it in another file wherever you need it. That's a handy trick that I've been using for years.

I didn't expect m-ajitabh's solution to work because selenium has no problem launching Firefox, so it knows where the firefox executable is located--selenium just seems incapable of driving Firefox. I also checked the selenium docs for the allowed keys in capabilities, so I tried this:

exports.config = {
  framework: 'jasmine',
  seleniumAddress: 'http://localhost:4444/wd/hub',
  specs: ['spec.js'],

  capabilities: {
    browserName: 'firefox',
    version: '50.1.0',
    platform: 'MAC',
    firefox_binary: '/Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox'
  }
}

...and I got the same result.

I just noticed there was some additional output in the $ webdriver-manager start window:

08:17:38.703 INFO - Executing: [new session: Capabilities [{count=1, browserName=firefox, moz:firefoxOptions={binary=/Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox}, version=50.1.0, platform=MAC}]])

Guys, I have clearly mentioned above Firefox browser v44.01. Currently, Protractor supports Firefox browser till v44.0.1, do not use above version. My test environment is Windows not MAC, so guys above settings are for Windows environment.
I don't have a MAC, I can support you theoretically to the MAC users.

This is an ancient issue, and unrelated to the Firefox woes of the modern era. Please see #3823.

The underlying issue is the version of Selenium that Protractor uses. Protractor 4 uses selenium 2.53, and only supports Firefox 47 or older.

Protractor 5 can work with Firefox 50, but only with selenium 3.0.0-beta4. Also, Firefox 50 has a bug that might affect Protractor testing, so using the 51 beta is recommended. Protractor 5.1 will support using Firefox 51 with directConnect.

Guys,

Running automation in firefox has some issues with the different versions of different framework. I am running my automation on chrome and it works perfect.

I have also executed my automation suites on firefox, but having older version of firefox there are some bugs with the design of angular js app which I was executing.

I setup the chrome as a base and now I am happy.

I do manual testing on firefox for further test.

Thanks Ajitabh Ranjan Mob: 9430331985

Update your protractor and try again.

I am not using the gulp to run the protector. I am using the protractor directly with firefox configuration and it is running. How have you configured firefox????

@makwanaparth94

Can you provide more info, like which version:

makwanaparth94 commented 7 years ago

Yeah sure! I am using Protractor v5.1,Firefox 55.0.3 and geckodriver: 0.18.0

@makwanaparth94 I ran into this issue while testing with protractor too. The problem was that firefox lost focus, because of me fiddeling around while protractor was running. When I left it do its thing everything went well.
