When I run my tests using selenium 3.0.1 with firefox 50, I get the following error, they work fine with other browsers. Also, if I run tests from eclipse using firefox, they also work fine, but an exception is displayed at the end of the test run.

UPDATE for people with simlar problem

I tried this with different versions of Firefox, and here is what I found:

• The only thing that works is Firefox 48.

• Firefox 47 is clearly not supported, as indicated here

• Firefox 49 and 50 have problems so far. You can see here that report on various problems that they have with them.

  UPDATE 2:

gecko, 0.13.0. Firefox 50, .

3: Firefox 53 geckodriver 0.16 3.4
