selenium: [🐛 Bug]: Selenium 4 Grid for Firefox 78 with geckodriver 0.30.0 failed
What happened?
Hi, I try to setup Selenium Grid (4.15.0) for Firefox 78 with geckodriver 0.30.0 and run selenium test.
It starts grid successfully, but test failed.
Test failed at step when create RemoteWebDriver:
webDriver = new RemoteWebDriver(
new Uri(HubUrl.AbsoluteUri),
capabilities,
TimeSpan.FromMinutes(10));
Maybe, Selenium Grid has some minimal requirements for geckodriver version? I can start my test with geckodriver 0.31.0 (that is not supported Firefox78 officially), but it does not Dispose browser correctly.
How can we reproduce the issue?
Hub:
java -jar C:\Temp\selenium-server-4.15.0.jar hub --config C:\Temp\selenium_hub_4.15.0.json
selenium_hub_4.15.0.json content:
{
"port": 4445,
"newSessionWaitTimeout": -1,
"servlets" : [],

"throwOnCapabilityNotPresent": true,
"nodePolling": 5000,
"cleanUpCycle": 5000,
"timeout": 300000,
"maxSession": 50
}
Node:
java -jar C:\Temp\selenium-server-4.15.0.jar node --port 7565 --hub http://my-IP:4445/ --config C:\Temp\node_config_Firefox78.toml
node_config_Firefox78.toml content:

max-sessions = 5

display-name = "Firefox78 (Node)"

@diemol, thanks. Yes, Firefox 78 is “extremely old” version, but it is supported by Selenium 4: https://www.selenium.dev/documentation/webdriver/browsers/firefox/
Do we have any documented requirements for Selenium 4 Grid? What is the minimum required version of geckodriver?
Hi @diemol , Thanks for your comment.
Now I start my grid with the following: Hub:
Node:
node_config_Firefox78.toml content:
But test still failed. Hub logs:
Node logs:
**Note: ** At the beginning of test I see in Hub UI, that 1 session is appears for browser, but it gone after 2-3 seconds (and browser did not opened):
When I do the same steps, but with geckodriver 0.31.0 (instead of 0.29.1) - it starts browser correctly and interacts with UI. But it is not Close / Dispose browser correctly (geckodriver 0.31.0 not supported Firefox78 officially).
