Protractor - MouseMove is not supported for Firefox

Question

I am new to protractor and selenium. I am trying to simulate a mouseover on a button and read values ​​such as the value of the mouse pointer and background color. I use mousemove and it works fine in Chrome, but not when I install the browser in Firefox. I believe that webdriver for some reason does not support this.

it('Mouse cursor should change to hand pointer', function() {   
  browser.get('URL');
  var search = element(by.buttonText('SEARCH'));
  browser.actions().mouseMove(search).perform();
  expect(search.getCssValue("cursor")).toEqual('pointer');
});

I get the following error for Firefox:

Message:
 Failed: mouseMoveTo
 Build info: version: '3.1.0',                 
 java.version: '1.8.0_121'
 Driver info: driver.version: RemoteWebDriver  
Stack:  
 UnsupportedOperationError: mouseMoveTo

Any help would be appreciated.

Answer 1

mouseMoveworks great for me. Looks like a problem for you with a combination. Firefox Version - gecko driver version - Protractor Version Suggest you upgrade all 3 to the latest available versions.

• geckodriver-v0.9.0
• Firefox - 45.0
• - 4.0.10
