Selenium Webdriver 2 with Firefox 26?

This morning I worked with Selenium from 2.32 and Firefox 25.0.1. Firefox upgraded to 26.0, and suddenly Selenium stopped working. A new browser window will appear, and then just a search request or an address will appear. Is Selenium known to have problems with this? Does this new confusion in the address bar of Firefox confuse? Is it already fixed in the newer Selenium 2.3x?

Pending fix, what is the easiest way to change my code to work with Chrome or (yecch) IE10? I would like to make my test code custom so that others in my group can use their browser (especially Chrome). I tried once to get Chrome to work by adding 'browser_name' => '* chrome' to the new () method, but it never worked.

By the way, I use Perl language binding (Selenium :: Remote :: Driver 0.17).

Try updating selenium to 2.38.0 (the latter at the time of writing). I had a problem updating firefox and then the buttons were not pressed and the version was resolved. Hope this resolves.

Upgrade to selenium to 2.39.0, for example:

<seleniumVersion>2.39.0</seleniumVersion>

I also encounter the same problem after upgrading my selenium to 2.39.0. I could not solve the problem, so I switched to Chrome.

Download the Chrome driver and specify the path where you call the browser. Then its easy in Chrome:

 if (config.getProperty("Browser").equals("chrome")) { System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "path of the chromedriver"); dri = new ChromeDriver(); }
