Proposals/Decisions

  • Selenium Manager Beta/Dev - It was agreed that the user should have to specify a non-production browser version in order for it to be used. There was a brief discussion about what the bindings would need to do in order to support this in code.

  • Re-add logging endpoints to Grid - It was agreed not to implement logging features at this time, but that an error shouldn’t be thrown for a valid method asking about supported logs.

CI Health

  • Tests are green!
  • Some flakiness in JS test before hook that needs to be investigated
  • Related: p0deje has done a bunch of work on improving CI with hermetic Ruby & Python implementations, Windows testing support in Ruby, and general caching improvements

Selenium 4.7

Milestone 4.7

Discussed some Python bugs that will require a 4.6.1 release soon.

Projects in Progress

Also discussed TamsilAmani’s work to better document Ruby testing with Bazel, and how it would be nice to improve documentation in all the languages.

  • Add More support to CI (#11305)
  • Add TouchActions API to Selenium (#10808)
