Change log

All notable changes to this program are documented in this file.

0.28.0 (2020-11-03, c00d2b6acd3f)

Known problems

  • macOS 10.15 (Catalina):

    Due to the requirement from Apple that all programs must be notarized, geckodriver will not work on Catalina if you manually download it through another notarized program, such as Firefox.

    Whilst we are working on a repackaging fix for this problem, you can find more details on how to work around this issue in the macOS notarization section of the documentation.

Added

  • The command line flag --android-storage has been added, to allow geckodriver to also control Firefox on root-less Android devices. See the documentation for available values.

Fixed

  • Firefox can be started again via a shell script that is located outside of the Firefox directory on Linux.

  • If Firefox cannot be started by geckodriver the real underlying error message is now being reported.

  • Version numbers for minor and extended support releases of Firefox are now parsed correctly.

Removed

  • Since Firefox 72 extension commands for finding an elements anonymous children and querying its attributes are no longer needed, and have been removed.

0.27.0 (2020-07-27, 7b8c4f32cdde)

Security Fixes

  • CVE-2020-15660

    • Added additional checks on the Content-Type header for POST requests to disallow application/x-www-form-urlencoded, multipart/form-data and text/plain.

    • Added checking of the Origin header for POST requests.

    • The version number of Firefox is now checked when establishing a session.

Known problems

  • macOS 10.15 (Catalina):

    Due to the requirement from Apple that all programs must be notarized, geckodriver will not work on Catalina if you manually download it through another notarized program, such as Firefox.

    Whilst we are working on a repackaging fix for this problem, you can find more details on how to work around this issue in the macOS notarization section of the documentation.

Added

  • To set environment variables for the launched Firefox for Android, it is now possible to add an env object on moz:firefoxOptions (note: this is not supported for Firefox Desktop)

  • Support for print-to-PDF

    The newly standardised WebDriver Print endpoint provides a way to render pages to a paginated PDF representation. This endpoint is supported by geckodriver when using Firefox version ≥78.

  • Support for same-site cookies

    Cookies can now be set with a same-site parameter, and the value of that parameter will be returned when cookies are retrieved. Requires Firefox version ≥79. Thanks to Peter Major for the patch.

Fixed

  • Android:

    • Firefox running on Android devices can now be controlled from a Windows host.

    • Setups with multiple connected Android devices are now supported.

    • Improved cleanup of configuration files. This prevents crashes if the application is started manually after launching it through geckodriver.

  • Windows and Linux binaries are again statically linked.

0.26.0 (2019-10-12, e9783a644016')

Note that with this release the minimum recommended Firefox version has changed to Firefox ≥60.

Known problems

  • macOS 10.15 (Catalina):

    Due to the recent requirement from Apple that all programs must be notarized, geckodriver will not work on Catalina if you manually download it through another notarized program, such as Firefox.

    Whilst we are working on a repackaging fix for this problem, you can find more details on how to work around this issue in the macOS notarization section of the documentation.

  • Windows:

    You must still have the Microsoft Visual Studio redistributable runtime installed on your system for the binary to run. This is a known bug which we weren't able fix for this release.

Added

  • Support for Firefox on Android

    Starting with this release geckodriver is able to connect to Firefox on Android systems, and to control packages based on GeckoView.

    Support for Android works by the geckodriver process running on a host system and Firefox running within either an emulator or on a physical device connected to the host system. This requires you to first enable remote debugging on the Android device.

    The WebDriver client must set the platformName capability to "android" and the androidPackage capability within moz:firefoxOptions to the Android package name of the Firefox application.

    The full list of new capabilities specific to Android, instructions how to use them, and examples can be found in the moz:firefoxOptions documentation on MDN.

    When the session is created, the platformName capability will return "android" instead of reporting the platform of the host system.

Changed

  • Continued Marionette refactoring changes

    0.25.0 came with a series of internal changes for how geckodriver communicates with Firefox over the Marionette protocol. This release contains the second half of the refactoring work.

Fixed

  • Connection attempts to Firefox made more reliable

    geckodriver now waits for the Marionette handshake before assuming the session has been established. This should improve reliability in creating new WebDriver sessions.

  • Corrected error codes used during session creation

    When a new session was being configured with invalid input data, the error codes returned was not always consistent. Attempting to start a session with a malformed capabilities configuration will now return the [invalid argument] error consistently.

0.25.0 (2019-09-09, bdb64cf16b68)

Note to Windows users! With this release you must have the Microsoft Visual Studio redistributable runtime installed on your system for the binary to run. This is a known bug with this particular release that we intend to release a fix for soon.

Added

  • Added support for HTTP HEAD requests to the HTTPD

    geckodriver now responds correctly to HTTP HEAD requests, which can be used for probing whether it supports a particular API.

    Thanks to Bastien Orivel for this patch.

  • Added support for searching for Nightlys default path on macOS

    If the location of the Firefox binary is not given, geckodriver will from now also look for the location of Firefox Nightly in the default locations. The ordered list of search paths on macOS is as follows:

    1. /Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox-bin
    2. $HOME/Applications/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox-bin
    3. /Applications/Firefox Nightly.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox-bin
    4. $HOME/Applications/Firefox Nightly.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox-bin

    Thanks to Kriti Singh for this patch.

  • Support for application bundle paths on macOS

    It is now possible to pass an application bundle path, such as /Applications/Firefox.app as argument to the binary field in moz:firefoxOptions. This will be automatically resolved to the absolute path of the binary when Firefox is started.

    Thanks to Nupur Baghel for this patch.

  • macOS and Windows builds are signed

    With this release of geckodriver, executables for macOS and Windows are signed using the same certificate key as Firefox. This should help in cases where geckodriver previously got misidentified as a virus by antivirus software.

Removed

  • Dropped support for legacy Selenium web element references

    The legacy way of serialising web elements, using {"ELEMENT": <UUID>}, has been removed in this release. This may break older Selenium clients and clients which are otherwise not compatible with the WebDriver standard.

    Thanks to Shivam Singhal for this patch.

  • Removed --webdriver-port command-line option

    --webdriver-port <PORT> was an undocumented alias for --port, initially used for backwards compatibility with clients prior to Selenium 3.0.0.

Changed

  • Refactored Marionette serialisation

    Much of geckodrivers internal plumbing for serialising WebDriver requests to Marionette messages has been refactored to decrease the amount of manual lifting.

    This work should have no visible side-effects for users.

    Thanks to Nupur Baghel for working on this throughout her Outreachy internship at Mozilla.

  • Improved error messages for incorrect command-line usage

Fixed

  • Errors related to incorrect command-line usage no longer hidden

    By mistake, earlier versions of geckodriver failed to print incorrect flag use. With this release problems are again written to stderr.

  • Search system path for Firefox binary on BSDs

    geckodriver would previously only search the system path for the firefox binary on Linux. Now it supports different BSD flavours as well.

0.24.0 (2019-01-28, 917474f3473e)

Added

  • Introduces strictFileInteractability capability

    The new capability indicates if strict interactability checks should be applied to <input type=file> elements. As strict interactability checks are off by default, there is a change in behaviour when using [Element Send Keys] with hidden file upload controls.

  • Added new endpoint GET /session/{session id}/moz/screenshot/full for taking full document screenshots, thanks to Greg Fraley.

  • Added new --marionette-host <hostname> flag for binding to a particular interface/IP layer on the system.

  • Added new endpoint POST /session/{session_id}/window/new for the New Window command to create a new top-level browsing context, which can be either a window or a tab. The first version of Firefox supporting this command is Firefox 66.0.

  • When using the preference devtools.console.stdout.content set to true logging of console API calls like info(), warn(), and error() can be routed to stdout.

  • geckodriver now sets the app.update.disabledForTesting preference to prevent Firefox >= 65 from automatically updating whilst under automation.

Removed

  • ARMv7 HF builds have been discontinued

    We announced back in September 2018 that we would stop building for ARM, but builds can be self-serviced by building from source.

    To cross-compile from another host system, you can use this command:

    % cargo build --target armv7-unknown-linux-gnueabihf

Changed

  • Allow file uploads to hidden <input type=file> elements

    Through a series of changes to the WebDriver specification, geckodriver is now aligned with chromedrivers behaviour that allows interaction with hidden <input type=file> elements.

    This allows WebDriver to be used with various popular web frameworks that—through indirection—hides the file upload control and invokes it through other means.

  • Allow use of an indefinite script timeout for the Set Timeouts command, thanks to reimu.

Fixed

  • Corrected Content-Type of response header to utf-8 to fix an HTTP/1.1 compatibility bug.

  • Relaxed the deserialization of timeouts parameters to allow unknown fields for the Set Timeouts command.

  • Fixed a regression in the Take Element Screenshot to not screenshot the viewport, but the requested element.

0.23.0 (2018-10-03)

This release contains a number of fixes for regressions introduced in 0.22.0, where we shipped a significant refactoring to the way geckodriver internally dealt with JSON serialisation.

Removed

  • The POST /session/{session id}/element/{element id}/tap endpoint was removed, thanks to Kerem Kat.

Changed

Fixed

  • desiredCapabilities and requiredCapabilities are again recognised on session creation

    A regression in 0.22.0 caused geckodriver to recognise desired and required instead of the correct desiredCapabilities and requiredCapabilities. This will have caused significant problems for users who relied on this legacy Selenium-style session creation pattern.

    Do however note that support for Selenium-styled new session requests is temporary and that this will be removed sometime before the 1.0 release.

  • duration field made optional on pause actions

    A regression in 0.22.0 caused the pause action primitive to require a duration field. This has now been fixed so that pauses in action chains can be achieved with the default duration.

  • Log level formatted to expected Marionette input

    A regression in 0.22.0 caused the log level to be improperly formatted when using Firefox pre-releases. This is now fixed so that the requested log level is correctly interpreted by Marionette.

  • temporary field on addon installation made optional

    A regression in 0.22.0 caused the temporary field for POST /session/{session id}/moz/addon/install to be mandatory. This has now been fixed so that an addon is installed permanently by default.

  • SHA1s in version information uses limited number of characters

    The SHA1 used in --version when building geckodriver from a git repository is now limited to 12 characters, as it is when building from an hg checkout. This ensures reproducible builds.

0.22.0 (2018-09-15)

This release marks an important milestone on the path towards a stable release of geckodriver. Large portions of geckodriver and the [webdriver] library it is based on has been refactored to accommodate using serde for JSON serialization.

We have also made great strides to improving WebDriver conformance, to the extent that geckodriver is now almost entirely conforming to the standard.

Added

  • Support for WebDriver web element-, web frame-, and web window identifiers from Firefox.

  • Added support for the non-configurable setWindowRect capability from WebDriver.

    This capability informs whether the attached browser supports manipulating the window dimensions and position.

  • A new extension capability moz:geckodriverVersion is returned upon session creation.

Changed

  • All JSON serialization and deserialisation has moved from rustc_serialize to serde.

  • The HTTP status codes used for script timeout and timeout errors has changed from Request Timeout (408) to Internal Server Error (500) in order to not break HTTP/1.1 Keep-Alive support, as HTTP clients interpret the old status code to mean they should duplicate the request.

  • The HTTP/1.1 Keep-Alive timeout for persistent connections has been increased to 90 seconds.

  • An invalid session ID error is now returned when there is no active session.

  • An invalid argument error is now returned when Add Cookie is given invalid parameters.

  • The handshake when geckodriver connects to Marionette has been hardened by killing the Firefox process if it fails.

  • The handshake read timeout has been reduced to 10 seconds instead of waiting forever.

  • The HTTP server geckodriver uses, hyper, has been upgraded to version 0.12, thanks to Bastien Orivel.

  • geckodriver version number is no longer logged on startup, as the log level is not configured until a session is created.

    The version number is available through --version, and now also through a new moz:geckodriverVersion field in the matched capabilities.

  • webdriver crate upgraded to 0.37.0.

Fixed

0.21.0 (2018-06-15)

Note that with this release of geckodriver the minimum recommended Firefox and Selenium versions have changed:

  • Firefox 57 (and greater)
  • Selenium 3.11 (and greater)

Added

  • Support for the chrome element identifier from Firefox.

  • The unhandledPromptBehavior capability now accepts accept and notify, dismiss and notify, and ignore options.

    Note that the unhandled prompt handler is not fully supported in Firefox at the time of writing.

Changed

  • Firefox will now be started with the -foreground and -no-remote flags if they have not already been specified by the user in moz:firefoxOptions.

    -foreground will ensure the application window gets focus when Firefox is started, and -no-remote will prevent remote commands to this instance of Firefox and also ensure we always start a new instance.

  • WebDriver commands that do not have a return value now correctly return {value: null} instead of an empty dictionary.

  • The HTTP server now accepts Keep-Alive connections.

  • Firefox remote protocol command mappings updated.

    All Marionette commands changed to make use of the WebDriver: prefixes introduced with Firefox 56.

  • Overhaul of Firefox preferences.

    Already deprecated preferences in Firefox versions earlier than 57 got removed.

  • webdriver crate upgraded to 0.36.0.

Fixed

  • Force use of IPv4 network stack.

    On certain system configurations, where localhost resolves to an IPv6 address, geckodriver would attempt to connect to Firefox on the wrong IP stack, causing the connection attempt to time out after 60 seconds. We now ensure that geckodriver uses IPv4 consistently to both connect to Firefox and for allocating a free port.

  • geckodriver failed to locate the correct Firefox binary if it was found under a firefox or firefox-bin directory, depending on the system, because it thought the parent directory was the executable.

  • On Unix systems (macOS, Linux), geckodriver falsely reported non-executable files as valid binaries.

  • When stdout and stderr is redirected by geckodriver, a bug prevented the redirections from taking effect.

0.20.1 (2018-04-06)

Fixed

  • Avoid attempting to kill Firefox process that has stopped.

    With the change to allow Firefox enough time to shut down in 0.20.0, geckodriver started unconditionally killing the process to reap its exit status. This caused geckodriver to inaccurately report a successful Firefox shutdown as a failure.

    The regression should not have caused any functional problems, but the termination cause and the exit status are now reported correctly.

0.20.0 (2018-03-08)

Added

  • New --jsdebugger flag to open the Browser Toolbox when Firefox launches. This is useful for debugging Marionette internals.

  • Introduced the temporary, boolean capability moz:useNonSpecCompliantPointerOrigin to disable the WebDriver conforming behavior of calculating the Pointer Origin.

Changed

  • HTTP status code for the StaleElementReference error changed from 400 (Bad Request) to 404 (Not Found).

  • Backtraces from geckodriver no longer substitute for missing Marionette stacktraces.

  • webdriver crate upgraded to 0.35.0.

Fixed

  • The Firefox process is now given ample time to shut down, allowing enough time for the Firefox shutdown hang monitor to kick in.

    Firefox has an integrated background monitor that observes long-running threads during shutdown. These threads will be killed after 63 seconds in the event of a hang. To allow Firefox to shut down these threads on its own, geckodriver has to wait that time and some additional seconds.

  • Grapheme clusters are now accepted as input for keyboard input to actions.

    Input to the value field of the keyDown and keyUp action primitives used to only accept single characters, which means geckodriver would error when a valid grapheme cluster was sent in, for example with the tamil nadu character U+0BA8 U+0BBF.

    Thanks to Greg Fraley for fixing this bug.

  • Improved error messages for malformed capability values.

0.19.1 (2017-10-30)

Changed

  • Search suggestions in the location bar turned off as not to trigger network connections

  • Block addons incompatible with E10s

Fixed

  • Marionette stacktraces are now correctly propagated

  • Some error messages have been clarified

Removed

  • Removed obsolete socksUsername and socksPassword proxy configuration keys because neither were picked up or recognised

0.19.0 (2017-09-16)

Note that with geckodriver 0.19.0 the following versions are recommended:

  • Firefox 55.0 (and greater)
  • Selenium 3.5 (and greater)

Added

  • Added endpoint:

    • POST /session/{session id}/window/minimize for the Minimize Window command
  • Added preference extensions.shield-recipe-client.api_url to disable shield studies which could unexpectedly change the behavior of Firefox

  • Introduced the temporary, boolean capability moz:webdriverClick to enable the WebDriver conforming behavior of the Element Click command

  • Added crashreporter environment variables to better control the browser in case of crashes

  • Added preference dom.file.createInChild set to true to allow file object creation in content processes

Changed

  • Log all used application arguments and not only -marionette

  • Early abort connection attempts to Marionette if the Firefox process closed unexpectetly

  • Removed deprecated socksProxyVersion in favor of socksVersion

  • Removed ftpProxyPort, httpProxyPort, sslProxyPort, and socksProxyPort because ports have to be set for ftpProxy, httpProxy, sslProxy, and socksProxy using ":"

  • The proxyType noproxy has been replaced with direct in accordance with recent WebDriver specification changes

  • The WindowRectParameters have been updated to return signed 32-bit integers in accordance with the CSS and WebDriver specifications, and to be more liberal with the input types

  • Mapped the FullscreenWindow to the correct Marionette command

  • To make sure no browser process is left behind when the NewSession fails, the process is closed immediately now

  • /moz/addon/install command accepts an addon parameter, in lieu of path, containing an addon as a Base64 string (fixed by Jason Juang)

  • webdriver crate upgraded to version 0.31.0

  • mozrunner crate upgraded to version 0.5.0

Removed

  • Removed the following obsolete preferences for Firefox:
    • browser.safebrowsing.enabled
    • browser.safebrowsing.forbiddenURIs.enabled
    • marionette.defaultPrefs.port
    • marionette.logging

0.18.0 (2017-07-10)

Changed

  • RectResponse permits returning floats for width and height fields

  • New type CookieResponse for the GetNamedCookie command returns a single cookie, as opposed to an array of a single cookie

  • geckodriver now recommends Firefox 53 and greater

  • Version information (--version) contains the hash from from the commit used to build geckodriver

  • geckodriver version logged on startup

  • webdriver crate upgraded to version 0.27.0

  • mozrunner crate upgraded to version 0.4.1

Fixed

  • The SetTimeouts command maps to the Marionette setTimeouts command, which makes geckodriver compatible with Firefox 56 and greater

  • Linux x86 (i686-unknown-linux-musl) builds are fixed

0.17.0 (2017-06-09)

Added

  • Added endpoints:
    • POST /session/{session id}/window/fullscreen to invoke the window manager-specific full screen operation
    • POST /session/{session id}/moz/addon/install to install an extension (Gecko only)
    • POST /session/{session id}/moz/addon/uninstall to uninstall an extension (Gecko only)

Changed

  • Increasing the length of the network.http.phishy-userpass-length preference will cause Firefox to not prompt when navigating to a website with a username or password in the URL

  • Library dependencies upgraded to mozrunner 0.4 and mozprofile 0.3 to allow overriding of preferences via capabilities if those have been already set in the profile

  • Library dependencies upgraded to mozversion 0.1.2 to only use the normalized path of the Firefox binary for version checks but not to actually start the browser, which broke several components in Firefox on Windows

Fixed

  • The [SetWindowRect] command now returns the [WindowRectResponse] when it is done

  • Use ASCII versions of array symbols to properly display them in the Windows command prompt

  • Use SessionNotCreated error instead of UnknownError if there is no current session

0.16.1 (2017-04-26)

  • Session is now ended when closing the last Firefox window (fixes #613)

0.16.0 (2017-04-21)

Note that geckodriver v0.16.0 is only compatible with Selenium 3.4 and greater.

Added

Removed

  • Removed following list of unused endpoints:
    • GET /session/{session id}/alert_text
    • POST /session/{session id}/alert_text
    • POST /session/{session id}/accept_alert
    • POST /session/{session id}/dismiss_alert

  • CookieResponse and CloseWindowResponse fixed to be properly wrapped in a value field, like other responses

  • Allow negative numbers for x and y fields in pointerMove action

  • Disable Flash and the plugin container in Firefox by default, which should help mitigate the “Plugin Container for Firefox has stopped working” problems many users were reporting when deleting a session

  • Preferences passed in a profile now take precedence over set of default preferences defined by geckodriver (fixed by Marc Fisher)

    • The exceptions are the marionette.port and marionette.log.level preferences and their fallbacks, which are set unconditionally and cannot be overridden
  • Remove default preference that disables unsafe CPOW checks

  • WebDriver library updated to 0.25.2

Fixed

  • Fix for the “corrupt deflate stream” exception that sometimes occurred when trying to write an empty profile by @kirhgoph

  • Allow preferences in moz:firefoxOptions to be both positive- and negative integers (fixed by Jason Juang)

  • Allow IPv6 hostnames in the proxy configuration object

  • i686-unknown-linux-musl (Linux 32-bit) build fixed

  • Log messages from other Rust modules are now ignored

  • Improved log messages to the HTTPD

0.15.0 (2017-03-08)

Added

Changed

  • All HTTP responses are now wrapped in {value: …} objects per the WebDriver specification; this may likely require you to update your client library

  • Pointer move actions element key changed to origin, which lets pointer actions originate within the context of the viewport, the pointers current position, or from an element

  • Now uses about:blank as the new tab document; this was previously disabled due to bug 1333736 in Marionette

  • WebDriver library updated to 0.23.0

Fixed

  • Aligned the data structure accepted by the Set Timeouts command with the WebDriver specification

0.14.0 (2017-01-31)

Changed

  • Firefox process is now terminated and session ended when the last window is closed

  • WebDriver library updated to version 0.20.0

Fixed

  • Stacktraces are now included when the error originates from within the Rust stack

  • HTTPD now returns correct response headers for Content-Type and Cache-Control thanks to Mike Pennisi

0.13.0 (2017-01-06)

Changed

  • When navigating to a document with an insecure- or otherwise invalid TLS certificate, an insecure certificate error will be returned

  • On macOS, deducing Firefox location on the system will look for firefox-bin on the system path (PATH environmental variable) before looking in the applications folder

  • Window position coordinates are allowed to be negative numbers, to cater for maximised window positioning on Windows

  • WebDriver library updated to version 0.18.0

Fixed

  • Check for single-character key codes in action sequences now counts characters instead of bytes

0.12.0 (2017-01-03)

Added

  • Added Take Element Screenshot command

  • Added new Status command

  • Added routing for the Get Timeouts command, but it is not yet implemented in Marionette, and will return an unsupported operation error until it is

Changed

  • Synced Firefox preferences with those used in Mozilla automation

  • Default log level for debug builds of Firefox, which used to be DEBUG, changed to INFO-level

  • Clarified in README that geckodriver is not supported on Windows XP

  • Added documentation of supported capabilities to README

  • Included capabilities example in the README

0.11.1 (2016-10-10)

Fixed

0.11.0 (2016-10-10)

Added

  • Introduced continuous integration builds for Linux- and Windows 32-bit binaries

  • Added commands for setting- and getting the window position

  • Added new extension commands for finding an elements anonymous children and querying its attributes; accessible through the /session/{sessionId}/moz/xbl/{elementId}/anonymous_children to return all anonymous children and /session/{sessionId}/moz/xbl/{elementId}/anonymous_by_attribute to return an anonymous element by a name and attribute query

  • Introduced a moz:firefoxOptions capability to customise a Firefox session:

    • The binary, args, and profile entries on this dictionary is equivalent to the old firefox_binary, firefox_args, and firefox_profile capabilities, which have now all been removed

    • The log capability takes a dictionary such as {log: "trace"} to enable trace level verbosity in Gecko

    • The prefs capability lets you define Firefox preferences through capabilities

  • Re-introduced the --webdriver-port argument as a hidden alias to --port

Changed

  • firefox_binary, firefox_args, and firefox_profile capabilities removed in favour of the moz:firefoxOptions dictionary detailed above and in the README

  • Removed --no-e10s flag, and geckodriver will from now rely on the Firefox default multiprocessing settings (override using preferences)

  • Disable pop-up blocker in the default profile by @juangj

  • Changed Rust compiler version to 1.12 (beta) temporarily because of trouble linking Musl binaries

  • Replaced env_logger logging facility with the slog package, causing the RUST_LOG environment variable to no longer have any affect

  • Updated the WebDriver Rust library to version 0.15

Fixed

  • Corrected link to repository in Cargo metadata

  • Verbosity shorthand flag -v[v] now works again, following the replacement of the argument parsing library in the previous release
