757069 - getSessionCapabilities raises MarionetteException: unrecognizedPacketType

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Testing :: Marionette, defect)

Description

[Andrzej Skalski]

Hi,

here is some output from interactive run (Firefox with marionette is up and running via MozRunner and MozProfile in background). m.window* calls are not relevant, but gives weird results, so I decided to post them as well.

    >>> m
    <marionette.marionette.Marionette object at 0x013188B0>
     
    >>> m.window()
    Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "<console>", line 1, in <module>
    TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not callable
     
    >>> m.window
     
    >>> m.get_session_capabilities()
    Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "<console>", line 1, in <module>
      File "E:\mozbase-win32\lib\site-packages\marionette-0.2-py2.7.egg\marionette\m
    arionette.py", line 225, in get_session_capabilities
        response = self._send_message('getSessionCapabilities', 'value')
      File "E:\mozbase-win32\lib\site-packages\marionette-0.2-py2.7.egg\marionette\m
    arionette.py", line 174, in _send_message
        self._handle_error(response)
      File "E:\mozbase-win32\lib\site-packages\marionette-0.2-py2.7.egg\marionette\m
    arionette.py", line 203, in _handle_error
        raise MarionetteException(message=response, status=500)
    MarionetteException: {u'message': u'Actor "conn1.marionette1" does not recognize
     the packet type "getSessionCapabilities"', u'from': u'conn1.marionette1', u'err
    or': u'unrecognizedPacketType'}

Andrzej, can you please make sure to file Marionette bugs into the Marionette component in the future? Thanks.

[Andrzej Skalski]

OK, sorry, I used the wrong bugzilla bookmark.

Comment 3

[Jonathan Griffin (:jgriffin)]

:AutomatedTester, do you have any suggestions on what we should return for session capabilities?  Should we just return an empty object?

Comment 4

[David Burns :automatedtester]

I think that we should try return useful information about the browser. e.g. http://code.google.com/p/selenium/source/browse/trunk/javascript/firefox-driver/js/nsCommandProcessor.js#698

This way we can return details of what the Gecko instance is that we are connected to. This might be good if we are running a test, which hopefully would work cross-platform and cross-device, to know what we are connected to, especially on failure.

this should probably be 'rotatable': rotatable, no?
