seleniumgrid

This project shows how to use Selenium Grid with different browsers. It contains minimal working configuration that probably should be improved for production use.

From version 3.x Selenium uses geckodriver for interactions with Firefox browser and this driver supports Firefox version 55 and greater (see Gecko Supported Firefoxen).

But it is possible to use older Firefox without marionette.

Sample Setup

Web Driver usage in JAVA code

Set "marionette" capability of required web driver to false (see SeleniumGridTest class).
