SeleniumLibrary 6.2.0 is a new release with compatibility fixes for recent selenium versions and some bug fixes. SeleniumLibrary supports Python 3.8 through 3.11, Selenium 4.12.0 through 4.15.2 and Robot Framework 5.0.1 and 6.1.1.

Most important enhancements

Remove deprecated headless option for chrome and firefox. (#1858)

If one specified either headlesschrome or headlessfirefox as the browser within the Open Browser keyword, then the library would handle setting this option with the underlying Selenium driver. But the methods to do so were deprecated and then removed in Selenium v4.13.0. Thus one was not getting a headless browser in these instances. This resolves that issue.

Resolve issue with service log_path now log_output. (#1870)

Selenium changed the arguments for the service log within v4.13.0. This change allows for a seamless usage across versions before and after v4.13.0.

Execute JavaScript converts arguments to strings. (#1843)

If any ARGUMENTS were passed into either the Execute Javascript or Execute Async Javascript then they were converted to strings even if they were of some other type. This has been corrected within this release.
