Firefox needs very long to start with @firebug

Opened this issue · 1 comments

Hey there

When I have tagged a scenario with @firebug and then I run cucumber, then it takes way longer until Firefox is started. Isn't there any way to speed things up?

Thanks.

Hmmm I tried to be super-intelligent, paused the execution of a story (by starting a debugging session), and tried to install Firebug. Then I hoped the next time I'd execute the story it would be there again. But it wasn't - otherwise your gem wouldn't make much sense, anyway. ;)

Just out of curiousity: what exactly does Selenium do? Create a "new Firefox" every time it's launched? And where did I install this Firefox to, then, and is it still there somewhere (and should be removed)?
