Question

I’m getting this error:

tests.IntegrationTests.Selenium.RegisterAndLogin (TestFixtureSetUp):
SetUp : OpenQA.Selenium.WebDriverException : Failed to start up socket within 45000

when I carry out the following in my code:

using System;
using System.Text;
using NUnit.Framework;
using OpenQA.Selenium.Firefox;
using OpenQA.Selenium;

namespace ekmProspector.tests.IntegrationTests.Selenium
{
    [TestFixture]
    public class RegisterAndLogin
    {
        private IWebDriver driver;   

        [TestFixtureSetUp]
        public void Init()
        {            

            driver = new FirefoxDriver();
        }
}

Can’t get much simpler really, but the error is fatal. Any ideas?

Answer 1

I got this working in the end, I removed all the package sub-folders which were added by NuGet when installing WebDriver and decided to added these manually. Created a ‘lib’ folder, then unzipped the selenium binaries into that folder. Then added references to all the binaries. Seems to be fine now.
