from selenium.webdriver.support.ui impo         


        

Answer 1

I got the same error when issuing a URL without the protocol (like localhost:4200) instead of a correct one also specifying the protocol (e.g. http://localhost:4200).

Google Chrome works fine without the protocol (it takes http as the default), but Firefox crashes with this error.
