Property webdriver.firefox.profile is ignored for gecko driver

[realtsvk]

I have custom firefox profile for special needs. Previously (with Serenity v. 1.1) I set property "webdriver.firefox.profile" in serenity.properties file, and firefox browser was started with this defined profile.

Today I updated Serenity to latest released version (1.5.3), also I set new firefox ESR (v 52.3.0) and latest gecko driver (v0.18.0).

The problem is that currently firefox with gecko driver is not using custom profile, which indicated in property "webdriver.firefox.profile" in serenity.properties file, instead it uses "firefox_profile=org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxProfile@aa10649}" (as it shown in the log).

Which property I need to set to use custom profile with gecko driver, or it is a bug?

The same property is still passed to the Firefox capabilities when the gecko driver is setup. This could be a geckodriver bug, e.g. SeleniumHQ/selenium#2645

Could you check if you can do this with raw Selenium? I suspect this is a Geckodriver bug.

Sorry for out of topic comment. But I am using Serenity with Cucumber, how can I customize Firefox driver in source code? And how to disable gecko debug log ? I am using Serenity 1.5.3 and my current class as below
@RunWith(CucumberWithSerenity.class) @CucumberOptions(features = "src/test/resources/features/...") public class DefinitionTestSuite { }

Thanks

You can use a provided driver (http://thucydides.info/docs/serenity-staging/#_custom_webdriver_implementations)

I am a using a custom firefox profile below is my code .
public class CustomDriver implements DriverSource {
@OverRide
public WebDriver newDriver() {
ProfilesIni allProfiles = new ProfilesIni();
FirefoxProfile testProfile = allProfiles.getProfile("default");
FirefoxOptions firefoxoptions = new FirefoxOptions();
firefoxoptions.setProfile(testProfile);
System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver", "path to the geckodriver");
return new FirefoxDriver(firefoxoptions);
}
The above code is working fine in my local. I am not sure how to set the system properties to gecko driver when using Jenkins.

This is not a defect but a question - could you please post it on https://serenity-bdd.rocket.chat or on stackoverflow instead?
