Support different webdrivers

Open GreatBahram opened this issue 3 years ago • 5 comments

Hi Bob,

How is it going? Have you thought of supporting different web drivers?

I did a bit of research, and it turns out they support the same functionality, but it turns out it requires a different configuration for each of them.

Thanks,

Yo, not necessarily, do you see certain benefits adding this?

For me, it is easier to work with Mozilla things rather than things made by Google. Secondly, I feel the geckodriver is available on most Linux platforms.

But I understand there are a couple of hassles to make this work, so if you feel it is not worth it, let's leave it as it is.

Ah good point, did not consider that, might be worth the effort then. Is it hard to add? The selenium interface should work the same right?

I didn't spend much time there, but, unfortunately, I spotted some differences at first glance.
