UnreachableBrowserException on simple test

[fortiernor]

I am trying Selenide with the simple
open("http://www.google.ca");
But I get an error (see output below; unfortunately gradle truncated it).
Any suggestion as to how to correct? I notice you do not provide any explanation on how to configure webdrivers, if I am missing something really basic please suggest further reading.
Thank you!

Selenium 2.53.0 doesn't work with Firefox 47 yet. Downgrade to 46 or wait for Selenium fix.

Or use MarionetteDriver instead.

@fortiernor Or try chromedriver. From my experience, it's the most fast and stable webdriver.
