#selenium

:P

right

what version of selenium/firefox -do- you have

and gecko

hold on I'll get both for you

dtornabene: you need 52.0.1 which is the latest, plus latest selenium from pypi

FF is at 45.8.0

the selenium is from pypi however

I'll try to get the FF updated

thanks for the reply!!! very much appreciated both of you!!

no worries

ow

45 is well old :P

I suspect that debian is only pushing ESRs

sounds reasonable tbh

it is debian

yep

sucks, would explain why i wasn't getting this on arch

"what year is it"

:P

mmmm, arch

nineteeeeen eighty five

FWIW, debian is a really good OS

just they are risk adverse

sure, its built for a purpose

totally, we use at the hackerspace for infrastructure

easier to manage in the long run, for new users especially

my colleague used to own iceweasel and recently moved it to firefox proper

just seeing if he has only moved it to ESR or what

had to google what esr even stood for

lol

thanks again on the help, what a strange error message?

how would I setup a reproducibility kind of rig, to give a proper bug report in the future?

ashamed to say I've never actually submitted a bug report in my life

what you did was great actually :)

much better than 80% of the reports we get

haha

so sad

you gave a tiny test case, with a stack trace

thats pretty much the definition of a good bug reports

report*

giving the software versions would have made it up there :)

heh, well, what do you think of this one... http://dpaste.de/DJ9n

new firefox, new error message

and around the carousel goes

dtornabene: that looks like that url doesnt exist

dtornabene: is your server up?

well its the same script as this one from before https://dpaste.de/QG8q

so it should be standing the server up right?

oh g-d, no

no it shouldn't

i've had too much coffee

or too little

and been awake staring at the screen too long

hahahahhahaha

sorry about that one ya'll

time for some fresh air

dtornabene: more haste, less speed

truth

heh

open tmux, lather rinse repeat

*lathers dtornabenen*

WhereIsMySpoon: that might be a HR violation...

im not in his company

;)

lol

coffee, cigarette, fresh air

you know

the more I do ui stuff

the more im finding i actually quite like it

WhereIsMySpoon: its significantly easier these days

AutomatedTester: this is without the benefit of a backing framework, mostly

i like it even more when i work with the boostrap bits

WhereIsMySpoon: my statement still holds

bootstrap*

fair

chrome makes it so super easy to modify css in-place

browser compat is amazing these days

ish

:P

much better than it used to be for sure

*switches to ie, sees ui is broken*

fuck you ie

AutomatedTester: ill be honest, not even firebug can compare to the ease at which chrome allows you to modify html/css in place

WhereIsMySpoon: historically chrome devs are known for not always following specs

then again, google has a lot more people and money than mozilla

and chrome is wrong

AutomatedTester: im aware of that, but that doesnt stop chrome being easier to get 80-90% of the way there with

I havent found it hard to change css/html in firefox

double click and away you go

it doesnt show all the value options for css properties a lot of the time

and the ui for doing it is just...not as good

the look and feel

but thats subjective :)

looks very dated

maybe to you :)

as i said, subjective

hahahaha

i also still feel that both ie and firefox lag behind chrome in terms of speed

god... github is so shit...

rendering speed

WhereIsMySpoon: our UX folks did a test

they too Chrome and branded it with Firefox and vice versa on the same machine

its not by much :)

chrome branded as firefox was "slower" than the firefox branded as chrome by users

stuff like opening new tabs, opening dev console

Hello. I'm wondering if anyone can help me to downgrade FF version in selenium hub? I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask..

AutomatedTester: interesting :P

MaKro_: download an old version of firefox from Mozilla

put it on the machine

and this is the manual step? there is no way to automate that by passing some kind of parameter?

MaKro_: all manual

unless you want to setup puppet or that to do it for you

MaKro_: if you have multiple versions of ff on the node, you can specify a version to use

using capabilities

but you have to actually have them installed

no way around that

ok thank you for the answers

that face when you appear to have broken everything

..F..FX.F..FF.FF.FF..F.FFFFF.FFFFFFFFFFFFFFF....F..F.FF..
