Does it support safari (mac), opera & edge browser for automation

[ghost]

Hi Team,

It worked fine for firefox & chrome but not with safari/edge/opera. Wondering like those browser implementations were not yet attached right ?

Please let me know what browser this bindings will work for ? I need to prepare my test plan accordingly. thanks in advance

Hi, safari and opera should be supported. The initial Edge support was merged recently (and is not yet released in tagged version, but should be soon). If you use selenium server to access these browsers, it should work. (As much as these browsers support WebDriver, which I doubt a bit, especially for Opera).

Hi @OndraM , I tried running for safari after starting the selenium server with below code but It didn't worked -

Code :

public function testSafariBrowser()
    {
        $caps = array("OS"=>"Sierra", "browserName" => "safari", "version" => "10");
        //$desired_capabilities = DesiredCapabilities::safari();
        //$desired_capabilities->setCapability('acceptSslCerts', false);
        $driver = RemoteWebDriver::create('http://localhost:4444/wd/hub', $caps);
        $driver->get('http://docs.seleniumhq.org/');
        $driver->wait(10);
        echo "The title is '" . $driver->getTitle() . "'\n";
        $driver->quit();

    }

We don't utilize Safari here, so I don't have much experience getting it running. Did you go through these instructions yet for the Safari Driver? https://github.com/SeleniumHQ/selenium/wiki/SafariDriver

Yes. I did and In working on bindings in parallel like java and python. They are working but with php its not. Even opera had the same issue.

@gabrielpreston I'm using MAC Sierra / Safari 10.0 with below code. its not working and throws a message like cant create a session.

$desired_capabilities = DesiredCapabilities::safari();
//$desired_capabilities = array("platform"=>"MAC", "browserName" => "safari", "version" => "10");
//$desired_capabilities->setCapability('acceptSslCerts', false);
$driver = RemoteWebDriver::create('http://localhost:4444/wd/hub', $desired_capabilities);
$driver->get('http://docs.seleniumhq.org/');
$driver->wait(10);
echo "The title is '" . $driver->getTitle() . "'\n";
$driver->quit();

@smunukuntla What is version of Selenium server you use? What command exactly do you use to start you Selenium server jar file?

And note, since Safari 10.0, the so-called SafariDriver from Selenium project (linked above) is no longer needed, as the WebDriver support should be builtin to Safari releases - see https://webkit.org/blog/6900/webdriver-support-in-safari-10/ .

@OndraM Im using latest selenium server version like 3.0 and starting with the regilar command like java -jar

Yes you r right about safari 10 and Im aware of it. I enabled automation option also for safari browser.

Hi @OndraM I have updated the selenium server from 3.0 beta 2 to 3.0 version and now its working for safari 10.0 as well. Thanks much

Worked for edge browser as well on WIN 10 Pro via Selenium GRID 3.0.0 with the below code

$desired_capabilities = new DesiredCapabilities();
$desired_capabilities->setBrowserName('MicrosoftEdge');
$desired_capabilities->setPlatform('WINDOWS');
$desired_capabilities->setCapability('acceptSslCerts', true);
$driver = RemoteWebDriver::create('http://10.211.55.5:7777/wd/hub', $desired_capabilities);
$driver->get('http://docs.seleniumhq.org/');
$driver->findElement(WebDriverBy::id('q'))->sendKeys('selenium 3');
$driver->findElement(WebDriverBy::id('submit'))->click();
sleep(3);
echo "The title is '" . $driver->getTitle() . "'\n";
$driver->quit();

@smunukuntla Thanks for the valuable information! I found this in Selenium 3.0.0-beta4 changelog:

Remove OSS safaridriver in preference for Apple's own SafariDriver that ships as part of Safari 10.

So maybe the problem was when both drivers were present (what is no longer the case for Selenium 3.0.0-beta4 and newer).

@smunukuntla I also created #345 to track local support for SafariDriver (ie. when not started through Selenium server, but locally through safardriver binary from Safari 10.0).
