Hi,

The app uses jqGrid 5.1.0 and I’m working on automating tests for that app.  One of the tests that’s been giving me a lot of problems is the Search widget and filling in the fields of the widget.

Because the app I’m working on is a GWT app (now using JQuery for some its pages), we are forced to develop in Firefox v24.   I have no control over that…

The problem I’m having is that the browser’s focus doesn’t want to be set to the search field (an <input> tag) field via Selenium automation .     The problem doesn’t seem to happen when the automation uses the latest Chrome driver.  Note: I don’t seem to have a problem when my automation uses the latest Chrome driver version.

I think the problem stems from a focus call in the jqGrid library where Selenium’s sendKeys() call doesn’t put the focus in the field.

Is there a maximum version of jqGrid we can use with Firefox 24?

Thanks,

Mark
