How to get the WebDriver version during test run

0 votes

I am currently writing on a test framework where the report should include the WebDriver version of the test run. 

While using Selenium, there is this getEval("Selenium.version") method but I find no way to read the version when using the WebDriver. 

Can anyone help me with the solution?

Hi friend,

It is possible by reading the VERSION.txt properties file

final Properties p = new Properties();
p.load(getSeleniumResourceAsStream("/VERSION.txt"));
String rcVersion = p.getProperty("selenium.rc.version");
String rcRevision = p.getProperty("selenium.rc.revision");
String coreVersion = p.getProperty("selenium.core.version");
String coreRevision = p.getProperty("selenium.core.revision");
BuildInfo info = new BuildInfo();
String versionString = String.format("v%s%s, with Core v%s%s. Built from revision %s",
    rcVersion, rcRevision, coreVersion, coreRevision, info.getBuildRevision());

Note that it requires a static import:

import static org.openqa.selenium.browserlaunchers.LauncherUtils.getSeleniumResourceAsStream;

Hope this helps
