in reply to automate firefox?

WWW::Mechanize::Firefox I believe no longer works,

Hi ,

That would be news, are you sure?

Anyway, there is always WWW::Mechanize::Chrome and WWW::Mechanize::PhantomJS

    Yes and no.

    It depends on an FF add-on called MozRepl.

    But newer versions of FF deactivated the API used by MozRepl.

    So it'll still work with a FF older than v55.

    Update

    https://github.com/bard/mozrepl

    > Key technologies upon which MozRepl depends will be retired from the Mozilla platform in November 2017. If you are relying on MozRepl, please investigate migration paths. The last known compatible version is Firefox 54.
