Version compatibility of Firefox and the latest Selenium IDE (2.9.1.1-signed)

Question

I visited https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/selenium-ide/

to install the latest Selenium IDE (v 2.9.1) in Firefox.

My Firefox version is 54 (64-bit) OS: Windows 10 Pro 64-bit (10.0, Build 14393)

But unfortunately "Add to Firefox" button was shown disabled on the site https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/selenium-ide/

On that site NOTE was found as: Note: Selenium IDE will NOT work on Firefox version 55 onwards. Please stay on Firefox version 54 or older.

What can I do to install Selenium IDE on FF 54?

Solution 1

Sad but true, It is no secret by now that Selenium IDE will be deprecated. In fact, it has already stopped working since Firefox 55. Here are some potential replacements that you may consider applying to your project:

• Robot Framework

• Katalon Studio

• Protractor

• TestProject

Good luck and Good bye Legend.

I think Firefox is not supported Selenium IDE after 53 or 54 version, I have read that blog

Solution 3

Firefox 55 doesn't support Selenium IDE 2.9.1. FF 54 and less are OK.

Installation Selenium IDE on FF 54:
1. Open Firefox 54 and visit https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/selenium-ide/
2. Click "Download Anyway" link to download (In my case, it was selenium_ide-2.9.1-fx.xpi)

3. Open .xpi file you download in Firefox 54 -> Click Install and then Restart Now according to following interface:
