Java - Selenium Firefoxdriver does not start when using .jar file

Time:05-06

When I create a .jar file and want to start the firefox webdriver I get an Error. It works if I run it in VS-Code.

SLF4J: Failed to load class "org.slf4j.impl.StaticLoggerBinder".
SLF4J: Defaulting to no-operation (NOP) logger implementation
SLF4J: See http://www.slf4j.org/codes.html#StaticLoggerBinder for further details.
Exception in thread "main" org.openqa.selenium.WebDriverException: Build info: version: '4.1.0', revision: '87802e897b'

I already added SLF4j to my maven dependecies like they said here: java - SLF4J

Here a snippet to recreate the problem:

//selenium
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxOptions;
//webdrivermanager
import io.github.bonigarcia.wdm.WebDriverManager;

public class Test {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        String driversPath = "PATHTODRIVER";
        WebDriverManager.firefoxdriver().cachePath(driversPath).avoidOutputTree().setup();
        FirefoxOptions options = new FirefoxOptions();
        WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver(options);
    }
}

CodePudding user response:

To make a conclusion. If something does not work, try to update your dependencies fixes most problems

In This Case selenium 4.1.0 did not allow to execute firefoxdriver when the app is packed into a jar. It works fine with selenium 4.1.4.
