| v2.21.0 (In Progress) |
| ======= |
| |
| WebDriver: |
| * Significant stability improvements in firefoxdriver. |
| |
| Grid: |
| * Significant changes in the timeout strategy between hub, nodes and browser. |
| See http://code.google.com/p/selenium/wiki/Grid2 section on timeouts. |
| Compatibility note: It is recommended to at least update the nodes |
| to 2.21. Upgrading only the hub will effectively disable the |
| browser-death timeout. |
| |
| * Content length issue solved |
| * Improvements in thread dumps in both hub and node, |
| possible to corrolate the two. |
| |
| Server: |
| * -Dwebdriver.server.browser.timeout=<timeoutInSeconds> added to |
| differentiate between browser hang and client gone (which is |
| webdriver.server.session.timeout as before) |
| See http://code.google.com/p/selenium/wiki/RemoteWebDriverServer |
| for further details. |
| |
| |
| v2.20.0 |
| ======= |
| |
| WebDriver: |
| * RemoteWebDriver.setLogLevel is no longer a static method. |
| * Introduce a timeout for page loads. This needs to be used in |
| conjunction with the unstable page load detection. |
| * Adding alertIsPresent ExpectedCondition. |
| * Turning off password saving in the Android driver. |
| * FIXED: 3391: scroll containing elements, not just windows. |
| * FIXED: 2211: Allow the http client factory to discover the proxy |
| for traffic between the http command executor and the webdriver |
| server via the normal system properties. |
| |
| WebDriverJS: |
| * Refactored the WebDriverJs promise manager to use a proper tree to |
| track scheduled tasks. |
| * In webdriver.Builder, default to http://localhost:4444/wd/hub if a |
| server URL is not specified. |
| |
| Grid: |
| * JDK 1.6.1_31 recommended for maximum stability |
| * The HUB is now upgraded to run with Jetty 7.6.1. |
| * Making the id for proxy final, and allowing it to be specified |
| from the registration request. If the id isn't in the request, the |
| remote host is used as an id, as it was before. |
| * FIXED: 3096: Memory leak in selenium hub. |
| |
| RC: |
| * More work on SSL certs. Should work cleanly in Firefox now. |
| * FIXED: 1982: Clear an input element in such a way as to avoid |
| firing any events when emulating typing in selenium |
| emulation. Fixes issue 1982. |
| |
| Atoms: |
| * Submit a form when the enter button is pressed in its input |
| element. |
| * Add a "mouse pixel scroll" event to the atoms events module. |
| * Adding a public "mouseOver" action and a little internal |
| refactoring around the mouseOver functionality. |
| |
| |
| v2.19.0 |
| ======= |
| |
| WebDriver: |
| * Server-side implementation of the webdriver-backed selenium. |
| * "sendKeys" works in the webdriver-backed selenium when using |
| safari. |
| * Implement local/session storage for iOS driver. |
| * Exceptions now thrown when an alert occurs during script |
| execution. |
| * Native events implemented for Firefox 10. |
| * Renamed the experimental "fast" page loaded strategy "unstable" |
| and disable queuing of commands when it's enabled. |
| * Corrections to javadocs. |
| * Disabled native events for Firefox 8 as it's deprecated by |
| Mozilla. |
| |
| RC: |
| * Update cybervillains certificate (thanks to Ivan De Marino and |
| Mark Watson @ Neustar) |
| * Default to using the native xpath engine in selenium-backed |
| webdriver instances. |
| * Correctly fire events when outside a firefox extension |
| |
| WebDriverJS: |
| * Return a promise from webdriver.WebDriver.prototype.quit() so |
| users may register callbacks. |
| * Small tweaks so WebDriverJs works as expected in IE7/8. |
| |
| Known Issues: |
| * Holding down a modifier key and clicking with Firefox 10 on |
| Windows does not work reliably when using native events. |
| |
| |
| v2.18.0 |
| ======== |
| |
| WebDriver: |
| * FIXED: 3169: Getting value attribute on option elements. |
| * Alert handling in Firefox and IE: Throwing UnhandledAlertException |
| if an alert is present during an operation. The unhandled alert is |
| also dismissed to mitigate repeat exceptions. |
| * Better handling of getText invocations on SVG elements. |
| * FIXED: 3253: Clicking stopped working on Firefox 4. |
| * Android Driver now supports Flash, Geolocation. |
| * FIXED: 1371: iPhone Driver now supports frame switching. |

| android version (issue 3142) |
| * FIXED: 3167: Sending empty keys to a text field no longer throws |
| * FIXED: 3173: Using ChromeOptions no longer causes stack exhaustion |
| * FIXED: 3169: getAttribute("value") falls back to the text of |
| option tags, if no value attribute is specified |
| * Updated operadriver to version 0.9 |
| |
| Maven: |
| |
| * NOTE: We have removed our dependency on the operadriver from our |
| pom, because it creates a circular dependency. To use the |
| operadriver, add the following dependency to your own pom.xml |
| file: |
| |
| <dependency> |
| <groupId>com.opera</groupId> |
| <artifactId>operadriver</artifactId> |
| <version>0.9</version> |

| |
| v2.16.0 |
| ======= |
| |
| WebDriver: |

| * The FirefoxDriver now enables apps to use offline storage by |
| default. |
| * ChromeDriver allows setting the chrome driver's environment more |
| easily. |
| * RemoteWebElement implementations now guarantee that the ID used to |
| identify them. This allows "hashCode" and "equals" to be local |
| operations in Java. |

| fields unless annotated with a @FindBy. |
| * By default, clicks will now be in the middle of elements. |

| instead of trying to explicitly trigger it at the appropriate |
| times. This makes debugging much simpler. |

| |
| Grid: |
| * It's now a beautiful butterfly. |
| |
| RC: |
| * IE HTA mode will now close the final window. |

| empty profile. |
| * Added the beginning of infrastructure for gathering logs from |
| webdriver tests. |
| * Added an UnreachableBrowserException. |

| |
| |
| v2.13.0 |
| ======= |
| Dependency change: |
| * Selenium/webdriver java dependencies now use apache commons-exec |
| (http://commons.apache.org/exec/) version 1.1. If you are using manual |
| dependency management you will need to add this to your project. |
