Re: Browser reuse
Thanks for your feedback, really appreciate.
Agree, I'd like to rewrite the server as a common external server where you could set everything what you need, but it requires quite a lot of work and I have no time for that for now. So please be patient.

Browser reuse
Great plugin. Thanks. So far it works without problems for me. However, please consider adding Browser reuse option in properties window. I opened ticket for that #207173. Once again thanks for your work.

Re: selenium and FF 5.0
Theoretically you could try to change the library in the userdir where are modules from UC stored. It would require the same name of the jar and then it could work but not fully sure about that.
I know that it's bad, I have entered an issue for that, but right now not time for rewriting that under Server API.

Re: Selenium 2.0.0 is released!
This is filed as bug 200245.
I put 5 items in there I would like to see if we can address.

Re: Selenium 2.0.0 is released!
I have tried, but the links to enter a new bug keep bringing me back to "My Page". I was able to update another bug I had filed just now, but entering a new bug is not working. I have tried getting at it from two different links now and they both fail the same way. It seems http://netbeans.org/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi is broken at the moment.

Re: Selenium 2.0.0 is released!
I'm not fully sure if this should be still updated since the way how the server is added can be causing issues in your IDE. For now, it's registered like a library and I'm P(slowly) working on registering that as a common server.
Anyway, can you enter new issue for that (contrib / selenium) where we could discuss that? Thanks a lot...

Selenium 2.0.0 is released!
So we can upgrade this to the official release. They are going to post the sources in a few days, so you might want to wait until then and include the full sources and Javadoc for the release. Right now only the Java Client library has sources.
BTW - I was able to create a Java project using existing sources in Netbeans 7.0 that builds for both the server and client jars (with the exception of two test modules for the Java client that I have not been able to resolve some imports). Let me know if you would like to know how to do that.

We need to update to Selenium 2.0RC3 now
I am glad to hear about the reworked plugin. That change would make this a lot easier. They just released 2.0RC3 on the 27th, so if you could update it one more time that would be great. This one adds Firefox 5.0 support features, so it is worthwhile.
It sounds like they are working on an Alpha release now, but the release candidates have been usable.
If you could set it up so the libraries had the source and JavaDoc paths set in them it would also be a big help in using them. I managed to get the JavaDoc downloaded for the java jar, but have not found one for the server jar, although I could download the sources and set that up. Having those set up by the plugin would really aid in programming for it in the IDE and when debugging. If you have a build for it that works in Netbeans maybe you can provide a link where we can download it?
Thanks for providing this plugin.

Re: Please update to Selenium 2.0RC2
Right, 2.0b3 was used. I entered issue for that:
http://netbeans.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=199373
BTW, it's not so easy to replace actual bundled server with the new one now. But I already started working on totally different work flow of this plugin. You would have the server registered as common external server (thru Server API), so you will be able to use any version you would wish then.

Please update to Selenium 2.0RC2
It is unclear just which version of Selenium 2.0 this was based on, but I am guessing 2.0b3 is what was used. They just release 2.0RC2, so can we please get this updated?
It would also be useful to have documentation on how to update it yourself by simply replacing the appropriate files and any related configuration info.
