what webdriver do I use for phantomjs?

https://github.com/detro/ghostdriver ?

<titusfortner> no, you need to download phantomjs directly

hi

good morning

i have spent a few days now with my selenium hub / nodes to detect the cause of my problem. i am running protractor tests with selenium. Running the nodes as a system user in session 0 (started by scheduled tasks in windows) does fail the tests. when i start the nodes from a desktop the tests succeed. any idea why or how to get it to work?

vedharish: thx! ;)

derflo: Can you make a :gist of the error you get during tests? Does the browser open up?

Please paste >3 lines of text to https://gist.github.com

vedharish: ok running a single test now with a cluster with only one node running as SYSTEM_USER invisible in background (started by scheduled tasks): test failed... one moment

vedharish: https://gist.github.com/anonymous/32c2d6c211d0e... thats the error

unknown error: unable to discover open pages

derflo: can you try adding '--no-sandbox' to chromeOptions ?

I found these links - https://groups.google.com/forum/?hl=en#!topic/s..., http://stackoverflow.com/questions/21001652/chr...

Also, its an error from the ChromeDriver, not from selenium itself

vedharish: YEEEEEEEEES!!!! thx so much

derflo: Nice!

vedharish: --no-sandbox did the trick

I'm a little confused, I tried a GET request as described, but the server doesn't know what I'm asking for: https://w3c.github.io/webdriver/webdriver-spec....

doing this with raw HTTP requests, no language bindings

notthemessiah: you've got an active session right?

yup, other get/post requests work, such as /url

what error do you get back

and do other session/{sessionId}/... requests work?

if not id suggest you're doing something wrong with sessions

state: unhandled error, sessionID: null

I'm using selenium server 2.53.0

dunno, sorry..you'll have to wait around for one of the devs to be active

more of them are active in 5-6 hours

usa time and all that

maybe I'll try to see if I can intercept the packet or something, see what exactly the language bindings are

i think I can work with the captured http request...

I was actually posting to /wd/hub/session/$sessionid/$command, not /session/$etc

when doing my raw requests

should have mentioned it

hub?

you want to post any webdriver requests to do with that sort of thing to the node

notthemessiah: ^

well, my overall intention is to create new language bindings

and writing to hub seemed to be the quickest way to get started using just a raw requests library

Hi! I want to use https://github.com/SeleniumHQ/selenium/blob/mas...

How do I send a GET request with json?

notthemessiah: yes but those requests dont -go- to the hub

you send a request to the node for say an element, that then goes to the browser driver, which talks to the browser

the node is at port 4444? packets from python go to 5????

Hi guys, I have the following HTML (this is only an excerpt) of a page I'm trying to automate. I'm basically trying to figure out which options are available for the user in the HTML and replicate that in a form: http://pastebin.com/CnS4krqA

at least when I posted to create a new /session

notthemessiah: you need to run a node as well as a hub

the problem is I can't seem to find a way of retrieving all of the properties available to the user in a sensical way.

Each of the properties has a description (the display value) the actual value and more often than not a help value as well

take for example the div that follows the label with for="httpmethod_"

there's a data-helptext which I'd like to grab, an input with name="httpmethod_" and value=GET, another with value=POST and another with value=HEAD, and then there's the "description", which is the text inside the label immediately following the inputs described above

but I can't find a logical way of retrieving that information in a way that will always work, bearing in mind the data presented here is dynamic.
