I write Webdriver automation regression tests using the FirefoxDriver. The other day, firefox automatically updated itself, and as soon as it did, I could no longer run automation.

I tried restarting my computer, reinstalling firefox- no help. Had to install an older version of firefox and disable updates. Then it worked. So I guess I can no longer update firefox until you fix the problem.


Thanks!

Note: If you are using the IDE instead of the stand-alone, there are more links here: http://seleniumhq.org/download/

How old is that version you're running? It looks as though webdriver.xpi was updated on June 19th, 2012.

See: http://code.google.com/p/selenium/downloads/detail?name=selenium-server-standalone-2.24.1.jar&can=2&q=

In the archive, the XPI file is here: org/openqa/selenium/firefox

Turns out I was using Webdriver 2.22 from the month before. Updated Webdriver and now it is able to open Firefox again. Sorry, my bad.
