Question

I’ve been running my selenium tests using selenium rc for about 6 months and suddenly the firefox windows selenium opens do not close when the test is finished.

I am using a specific firefox profile and had not updated my selenium rc jar. I thought that perhaps the latest build of firefox may have been the problem but I reverted back to firefox 2 and the windows still stay open.

I’m running the test on a Windows box.

I’ve noticed other people seem to be having this problem – just wondering if anyone has a solution?

Thanks,
Gearoid.

Answer 1

Very simple solution in the end – just called SeleniumTestCase’s tearDown() method (ie. we call super.tearDown(); from our base test class)

That closes down all the browser windows successfully.
