So typically I do these steps to run a test

  1. Start selenium grid (java -jar selenium-server-standalone-2.39.0.jar -role hub // java -jar selenium-server-standalone-2.39.0.jar -role node)
  2. Run a test script (node test.js // nightwatch test.js | node test.js)
  3. Webdriver kicks off browser and starts test

These scripts used to work and after revisiting them after a couple months I found they are now broken. I am unsure what the problem is as I have not changed any code. Any help is greatly appreciated.

FYI

Selenium version: 2.39.0 | OS: Mac Yosemite | Browser: Firefox | Browser version: 34.0.5

After 'starting' the server and going to 

http://localhost:4444/

i get

"You are using grid 2.39.0 Find help on the official selenium wiki : more help here default monitoring page : console"

but when trying to run a night watch script or even 'nightwatch help' it fails and then gives me the error - 'Connection refused! Is selenium server started?' (node scripts also give me a white screen)

Turns out this webdriver doesn't like the newer versions of firefox.

If you are experiencing issues go grab Firefox v 28.0 https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/28.0/mac/en-GB/
