Using selenium for acceptance tests?
It usually run fine, until I got bad magic number error when trying to run any version:
invalid file (bad magic number): Exec format error
It is quite confusing message, basically it means that it cannot be executed. Solution is to execute it using java with -jar option:
java -jar selenium-server-standalone-3.0.1.jar
To make it easier, selenium bootstrap file can be created to launch it:
#!/bin/bash java -jar /usr/local/bin/selenium-server-standalone-3.0.1.jarThis file can be named, for example
/usr/local/bin/selenium
with jar file located in same directory.
