This node is responsible for configuring a WebDriver Factory. The WebDriver Factory creates new WebDrivers which are required for example by the Start WebDriver node. The node’s configuration allows to select a concrete WebDriver implementation. The following WebDrivers are supported by default:
All WebDrivers except HtmlUnit and the RemoteWebDriver start an actual browser on your machine. This means, that the browser needs to be installed and accessible on your system. Usually, the browsers can be found automatically, in case they are available in the system’s path variable or they are present at system-specific standard locations. See the WebDriver-specific documentations above for more information.
Capabilities for the WebDriver can be configured using the key-value editor. This is relevant when you need a to set specific browser settings or a proxy configuration. Chrome and Firefox can be launched “headless” — use the “Headless” capability snippets to enable.
