I tried running my tests on safari technology preview release 43 (Safari 11.1, WebKit 12605.1.12) using the below desired capabilities in wdio.conf.js.

capabilities: [{
    browserName: 'safari',
    'safari.options': {
        technologyPreview: true
    }
}]

Every time I run the tests, regular version of browser gets opened. Anybody facing similar issue?

Please find the logs below

It appears as if this is a feature that may not "yet" be supported by Selenium in their Safari Driver implementation.

After researching a little I came across this issue with notes from a few days ago.

https://github.com/SeleniumHQ/selenium/issues/4537

Near the bottom per a member of the Selenium Organization:

Reading "technologyPreview" setting from the node config file is not yet implemented, it's an independent issue, we're working on this feature.

dont use safari, but maybe you can open the binary in the same way how you can do it with chrome canary with define the .exe in the binary.

    "browserName": "chromeCanary",
    "platform": "MAC",
    "chromeOptions": {
        "binary": "/Applications/Google\ Chrome\ Canary.app/Contents/MacOS/Google\ Chrome\ Canary"
    },
