Is it possible to define where to find browser exe's?

[jadiaz]

I am using Firefox Aurora as default browser and I am receiving the following error

Additional information: Cannot find Firefox binary in PATH or default install locations. Make sure Firefox is installed. OS appears to be: OpenQA.Selenium.Platform

My guess is Selenium is looking for the regular firefox browser. Is it possible to define where to find firefox?

This worked for me.

open canopy
open OpenQA.Selenium.Firefox

let aurora = new FirefoxDriver(FirefoxBinary("""C:\Program Files (x86)\Aurora\firefox.exe"""), FirefoxProfile())
browser <- aurora
browsers <- browsers @ [browser]
url "http://www.google.com"

If it works for you too, I will add better support for the constructor of Firefox that takes the firefox binary so you it will read something more like:

start Firefox(FirefoxBinary("""C:\Program Files (x86)\Aurora\firefox.exe"""), FirefoxProfile())

or maybe

start Firefox("""C:\Program Files (x86)\Aurora\firefox.exe""")

and you wont have to do the two lines setting browser and browsers

Works great but
reporter <- new LiveHtmlReporter() :> IReporter
is erroring out.

It will suffer the same problem and isn't as easily worked around. I will get a new build out tonight with fixes for this.

In the short term you could try chrome (requires chromedriver.exe to be downloaded)

start chrome
reporter <- new LiveHtmlReporter(Chrome, configuration.chromeDir) :> IReporter 

or use what you have now with FF Aurora and dont use LiveHtmlReporter

Now available in canopy 0.9.8
https://github.com/lefthandedgoat/canopy/wiki/Change-Log

start aurora
reporter <- new LiveHtmlReporter(aurora) :> IReporter 

If your Aurora is not installed to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Aurora\firefox.exe"

Then you can use this code

let aurora = FirefoxWithPath(@"C:\Your\Path\firefox.exe")
start aurora
reporter <- new LiveHtmlReporter(aurora) :> IReporter

Wow. Fast. Thanks!
