Chris, I focused on getting ant checkintests to work first because I saw
more progress there (browser launch, but execution fail) initially. After
downgrading firefox it worked properly with the older selenium setup that
the ant build uses.

I then tried to get maven build working and finally realised that it was a
problem I had earlier with
set webdriver.gecko.driver=path_to/geckodriver.exe
In a windows .bat file

vs. -Dwebdriver.gecko.driver=path_to/geckodriver.exe

On the mvn command line

(I had this before with distributionTargetFolder
It only works with the command line define)

So, I think it probably would have worked like it should without the FF
broswer downgrade for maven, I just did not realise what I was doing wrong
for maven until after I had already addressed the issue for ant.

Hi Greg,

Just because this thread had gotten a little confusing because of the mixup
of Ant and Maven related infos.
Did I understand, that you got the tests working on windows with Maven, but
had to downgrade your firefoxx?

I just checked:
We are using selenium-firefox-driver in version 3.0.1 in the Maven build.
I just checked my firefox and this is in Version 50.1.0 too … eventually I
should update to the latest version … oh … ok … it automatically updated ☹

The latest version of the selenium-firefox-driver is 3.2.0 … would be very
easy to update. Then we probably should get ASF Infra to update the
geckodriver on the Jenkins build agents (and eventually update Firefox).

    That was it. Downgrading firefox worked. Thanks!

    I saw the browser launch and quick test from ant  checkintests,

    I did not see it from the maven build:
    mvn clean install -P build-examples -Drat.skip=true

    ...then I remembered I had an unrelated issue with using
    distributionTargetFolder defined from a locally set environment variable
    (this is Windows, might be windows-specific) for maven

    so... for posterity, this is the maven version that works for me on
windows:

    mvn clean install -P build-examples -Drat.skip=true
    -Dwebdriver.gecko.driver=%cd%/../testing/selenium/firefox/
geckodriver.exe

    where 'testing' in

    testing/selenium/firefox/geckodriver.exe

    is a sibling folder to flex-asjs that I just set up arbitrarily in my
local
    flexjs related directories

    So I now (finally) have the browser tests working. :)
