Stuck on an issue?

Hello,

Try to use chrome instead of firefox as it is faster and because firefox stop working recently for apparently selenium/splinter/firefox update missmatch of some kind…

I have ubuntu with french locales and chrome seems to be installed with french as a default language… My tests need to be executed in us-en chrome instance to succeed. Even if I set default language to us_en in chrome preferences the instance lauched by browser(‘chrome’) don’t seems to use the default profile preferences but the chrome built one or something.

So, I try many way to pass language specification to chrome instance without succes.

    from splinter.driver.webdriver.chrome.Options import Options
    import splinter
    options = splinter.driver.webdriver.chrome.Options()
    options.add_argument('--lang=en-us')
    browser = Browser('chrome', chrome_options=options)

Inspire by some answer from this SO question : http://sqa.stackexchange.com/questions/9904/how-to-set-browser-locale-with-chromedriver-python

Not working…

    from selenium.webdriver import Chrome
    from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
    from splinter.driver.webdriver import BaseWebDriver, WebDriverElement

    options = Options()
    options.add_argument('--lang=en-us')
    global browser
    browser = BaseWebDriver()
    browser.driver = Chrome(chrome_options=options)

This other option failed with the following error :

              [self.element_class(element, self) for element in elements],
                find_by=find_by, query=query)

E AttributeError: ‘BaseWebDriver’ object has no attribute ‘element_class’

/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/splinter/driver/webdriver/init.py:380: AttributeError

I am not sure if It is me that don’t follow proper API fo BaseWebDriver or if the issue is somewhere else…

I think issues #326 and #382 are relate to mine…

Thanks
