I have requriment to open the Application in MS Edge headless browser, I googled but no luck didn't find proper guidance. please provide how we can start and load url in Edge headless browser.
Environment I have tried (Selenium + Java)
windows 10 or 7
Selenium version : 3.141.59
Java : 1.8 and 11
Edge Browser version : 88.0.705.81 (Official build) (64-bit) (Chromium)
Edege Driver version : 87.0.664.55 / 88.0.705.81
these 2 below methods are mentioned in some blogs both are showing errors AND does not belong to JAVA+EDGE+Headless combo
EdgeOptions op = new EdgeOptions();
op.useChromium =true;
op.addArguments("headless");
both are showing as wrong in IDE.

When can we get the selenium driver versions after the browser upgrade.
For Chrome driver I got info(https://chromedriver.chromium.org/downloads/version-selection) - Before a new major version of Chrome goes to Beta, a matching version of ChromeDriver will be released.
For other browsers(Firefox,Edge,IE..) when can we get the updated driver versions when the browser is upgraded.
I'm not able to find clear information other than chrome.
For the IE browser, you can download the IE driver server from the link below.
Download Internet Explorer Driver Server
For the MS Edge legacy browser prior to version 18, you can download the web driver from the link below.
Download Microsoft Edge Legacy web driver
If you want to download the web driver for the MS Edge legacy browser >= version 18, you can refer steps below.
Microsoft WebDriver for Microsoft Edge version 18 is a Windows Feature on Demand.
To install run the following in an elevated command prompt:
DISM.exe /Online /Add-Capability /CapabilityName:Microsoft.WebDriver~~~~0.0.1.0
For the MS Edge (Chromium) browser, You can download the latest version of the web driver from the link below.
Download MS Edge (Chromium) web driver
You can refer to the link below to view the full version directory from starting to the latest version of web driver for MS Edge (Chromium) browser.

I am using TestNG to run automated tests using a Selenium Java client. The tests are running fine on chrome and firefox but when I try to run the same on opera, I end up seeing tests timing out on the following console message:
Starting OperaDriver 2.35 (ee0117ea0f7f76009fd2aa3dd6b6164205de32b5) on port 27234
Only local connections are allowed.
org.openqa.selenium.WebDriverException:
unknown error: Opera failed to start: exited abnormally
(Driver info: OperaDriver=2.35 (ee0117ea0f7f76009fd2aa3dd6b6164205de32b5),platform=Linux 4.13.0-38-generic x86_64) (WARNING: The server did not provide any stacktrace information)
Environment
Ubuntu 16.04LTS
JDK 10
Selenium 3.11.0
OperaDriver 2.35(downloaded from here)
Code
OperaOptions options = new OperaOptions();
options.setBinary("operadriver");
testDriver = new OperaDriver(options);
I am trying to understand what went wrong here.
Many in the community seem to get the same error when trying to get opera running with selenium and opera driver. I also tested this with your versions and get the same output, although the other browsers are working just fine.
Opera does not seem to put a lot of resources in making this work. Check out this link for some more information, it is actually a slightly different issue, but still there are some background informations there.
The suggested hack is to run opera through an appropriate version of the chromedriver. I also got opera running with selenium that way some time ago (therefore other versions), but I did not yet test this with your configuration.
Update
I managed to get the following configuration work:
Ubuntu 16.04
Java 1.8
Selenium 3.11.0
Operadriver 2.30
Opera 48.0.2685.52
by using the chrome hack and passing the operadriver as the "chrome"driver
I am running webdriver 2.53.1 against firefox 45.9.0ESR on Redhat Linux 6.6. FirefoxDriver object gets created successfully and firefox launches with blank page (about:blank) as expected. But when I do the 'get' to open the url, it fails with UnreachableBrowserException with underlying cause as org.apache.http.NoHttpResponseException: localhost:7055 failed to respond.
Preferences set for FirefoxProfile
app.update.auto = false
app.update.enabled = false
app.update.silent = false
media.gmp-provider.enabled = false
webdriver.log.file = webdriver_debug.log
webdriver.firefox.logfile = firefox_browser.log
My observations
Browser is running and is not killed
Browser has webdriver addon added.
By 'netstat' I see webdriver listening on port 7055
Though I configured to dump firefox and webdriver logs, nothing gets dumped.
What I tried so far
Handling the exception and retrying does not help
The firefox is a tar ball extract. I tried removing the folder and extracting again, but that did not help either.
Used navigate().to(url) instead of get(url) but result is same.
NOTE: The JRE 7 is used for running
Upgrading Selenium
We cannot upgrade the selenium or firefox as there are many other dependent layers to be upgraded for selenium/firefox to upgrade.
You need to update your jars files of selenium both server and client.
Download the latest jars from below link :-
http://www.seleniumhq.org/download/
You also need to update your gecko driver from below URL :-

How to open google page in safari browser using Selenium WebDriver?
I am using the below code to open the safari browser.
WebDriver driver = new SafariDriver();
driver.get("http://www.google.com/");
But I am getting "SafariDriver requesting connection at ws://localhost:40921" error message
Can anyone please help me for the above?
You need to install Safari Extensions Developer Certificate in your machine and also install selenium webdriver as an extension in Safari Browser.
Also there are some stability issues with Safari browser & Selenium combination on Mac 10.9 OS and below.
The stability is much better on Mac Yosemite OSX & Safari 8.0.x combination along with Selenium v2.45.0
Have you checked out these links?
http://code.google.com/p/selenium/wiki/SafariDriver
http://code.google.com/p/selenium/issues/detail?id=3827
Prerequisite: Install Safari on Windows if it is not already installed
Go to http://docs.seleniumhq.org/download/
Scroll down -> Go to the section "SafariDriver" and download "SafariDriver.safariextz"
Double click on "SafariDriver.safariextz" (previously downloaded)
Safari would open with a pop up containing "Install" button -> Click Install button
Now go to Preferences of Safari -> Extensions tab : you would see WebDriver (in my case WebDriver 2.48.0) is installed (Enable WebDriver checkbox is checked))
It's now time to instantiate SafariDriver and get the desired URL by using Java. Please find the code:
WebDriver driver = new SafariDriver();<br>
driver.get("https://www.lynda.com/Ripon-Al-Wasim/8496323-1.html");
First of all, you don't need to download safaridriver if you having MacOS High Sierra and later, as its already present by default at
cd /usr/bin
ls -a
Can check here safaridriver is already present
so how to configure this safaridriver in test files
private static final String KEY_SAFARI_WEBDRIVER = "webdriver.safari.driver";
private static final String SAFARI_WEBDRIVER_PATH = "/usr/bin/safaridriver";
System.setProperty(KEY_SAFARI_WEBDRIVER, SAFARI_WEBDRIVER_PATH);
WebDriver driver=new SafariDriver();
By default automation testing option is disabled in safari,
can enable it from safari browser
Develop -> Allow remote automation
reference: https://www.lambdatest.com/blog/selenium-safaridriver-macos/
Try this instead:
System.setProperty("webdriver.safari.driver","C:/safaridriver.exe")
WebDriver driver = new SafariDriver();
I know that there is documentation on the ghostdriver wiki on how to attach it to a selenium grid. For those that don't know you can find it here
I've compiled the special phantomjs twice, tried to attach it to selenium servers local, and remote using both Selenium versions 2.24 and 2.25 to no avail. It starts up Ghostdriver locally just like you expect, but there's certainly no registering going on.
I tried both ip/localhost:4444 and ip/localhost:4444/grid/register with no results. I also thought perhaps it just didn't show up on the grid console and tried to run tests against it anyway, which failed stating there was nothing populating the grid.
I've tried this on both CentOS 6 and Ubuntu 12.04 with no luck.
I'm out of ideas. Has anyone else had problems like this?
I had exactly the same problem and fixed it with using the lastest version of selenium-grid.
The good website: https://code.google.com/p/selenium/wiki/Grid2 (this is no longer http://selenium-grid.seleniumhq.org/).
Here the steps (version 2.31.0):
Download the selenium-server:
wget https://selenium.googlecode.com/files/selenium-server-standalone-2.31.0.jar
Launch selenium grid server:
java -jar selenium-server-standalone-2.31.0.jar -role hub
In a new terminal, launch GhostDriver:
phantomjs --webdriver=5555 --webdriver-selenium-grid-hub=http://localhost:4444
Check out available remote control on http://localhost:4444/grid/console.
You should see something like that:
listening on http://127.0.0.1:5555
test session time out after 300 sec.
Supports up to 1 concurrent tests from:
phantomjs
I was testing this commands on CentOS 6.3, I hope it works for you!
