I have a ruby script that opens a browser. I have it set to open Firefox first and then Chrome if FF fails for some reason – like FF gets updated and Selenium hasn’t caught up yet.

The wait function/definition works fine for FF but always breaks Chrome. Here is the relevant code for the Chrome browser startup:

b = Selenium::WebDriver.for :chrome
b.driver.manage.timeouts.implicit_wait = $BROWSER_IMPLICIT_WAIT

I’m fairly new to Selenium still and I user the wait.until command after declaring something like:

wait = Selenium::WebDriver::Wait.new(:timeout => $BROWSER_EXPLICIT_WAIT)

The above lines of code work fine in Firefox. However, I’d like to run my scripts with both FF and Chrome. Is there a way to do this in Chrome and FF?

Thanks

    See now that you provide the error it gets easier to solve.

    The reason is that – you have named the selenium driver instance as b

    but defining the implicit time as

    b.driver.manage.timeouts.implicit_wait = $BROWSER_IMPLICIT_WAIT

    ie with b.DRIVER, hence the error message – undefined method 'driver' for

    change your command to 

    b.manage.timeouts.implicit_wait = $BROWSER_IMPLICIT_WAIT
