How to set-up the firefox,chrome,IE driver for selenium?

anurag_perl has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hi,

Here's quick question....I have been working on the perl-selenium web browser automation past from three and a half weeks. My problem I couldn't find proper solution on how to setup the firefox,chrome,IE drivers either in window or linux platform.

But somehow I managed to get it work in windows but chrome,IE driver are main problem to me.I am able to automate the several webpages of other sites.But recently my have developed have developed application web-site in which we login and do testing several functions in it.But I am not able to automate in chrome becuase the webpage loads and does the login but no further action takes place and it shows that there is server connection problem.

Also, can someone know on how to setup drivers in linux platform and also in windows using either selenium RC or selenium web-drivers.

The documentation in selenium web-sites and google-groups is of not that much great in how to do the things... And perl-formatter for the current web-driver in github has to be developed further.Also I found that there is no proper support from our perl front in solving the selenium issues.

I would like to request perlmonks to help in support for solving the selenium issues

Regards,

Anurag

Hi, I was able to make Selenium on chrome and firefox using Selenium-Remote-Driver. The basic steps are create a test script and on firefox you just run it. In Chrome you need to download and run download and run ChromiumDriver before running the test script at the same time you need to specify the location to the chromium browser binary in the capabilities	[reply]
