Answer 1

A note for ruby and webdiriver version 3+

The documentation has examples with native_events IE parameter, even it is written in console at the start point.

Actually the right parameter name is nativeEvent.

Set nativeEvent = false,
and webdriver will use fast JS instead off a slow native click simulation.
