tbselenium not working with Tor Browser 8.0 about tor-browser-selenium

8.0.4 tor & recommended gecko 0.17 also gives me this issue

Please update tbselenium from PyPI or from this repo. Either case you should upgrade to gecko 0.23.

Thanks for reporting. Indeed, upgrading to v8 broke many tests.

In the meantime, please update geckodriver and seleniumto latest if you happen to have out of date versions. As you can see from the Travis test results, a lot of tests actually pass.

I am using the latest selenium version... but I thought we had to use geckodriver v0.17.0 according to the installation instructions. Is that not the case anymore?

It won't be the case any more with TB 8.0. Will be updated to the latest geckodriver version.

I just checked: tbselenium & TB 8.0 work together nicely if you use external tor process, such as 1) system tor via tor_cfg=cm.USE_RUNNING_TOR or 2) stem (see example/stem_simple.py example).

This example works for me with Tor Browser v8.0, geckodriver v0.21.0 and selenium v3.12.0

Given the test failures, we should expect limited functionality (e.g. JSDisableTest.test_disable_js is failing) using an external tor process no?

Sorry for the delayed response. Short answer is, after the pull request I just merged , disabling JavaScript and adjusting security slider became impossible so I removed those tests.

The main issue is that we disable JavaScript or adjust security slider by flipping some prefs. It looks like Tor Browser extensions are not being notified of these pref changes and act indifferently. If you need to disable JavaScript, that can be done by emulating a use visiting about: config:

Other than the removed tests, removed core functionality is pretty reliable.

This is fixed by #110

I am facing the same problem, I also tried to install Selenium 3.3 as you have in the requirements but it says that selenium 3.3 is incompatible with tbselenium. Here you have the log from the installation of selenium 3.3: https://0bin.net/paste/ykQ0JFwr-qO+L6xR#Wx+h6tebNX+V-Wu/+dNOx55IiLIEyHkyp9f3l9T2pFP Let me know if I can do something else to fix this issue for me and other people who may face the same problem
