Matthias, Thanks for the details. Would you mind logging this -- and Richard's workaround -- in Jira so that we can be sure to get it fixed?

Hi Bret, thanks for investigating. Here are some scenarios on my box using irb: A) firefox already running irb(main):001:0> require 'rubygems' => true irb(main):002:0> require 'firewatir' => true irb(main):003:0> b = Watir::Browser.new TypeError: exception class/object expected from /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/firewatir-1.6.2/lib/firewatir/ firefox.rb:1078:in `raise' from /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/firewatir-1.6.2/lib/firewatir/ firefox.rb:1078:in `js_eval' from /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/firewatir-1.6.2/lib/firewatir/ firefox.rb:195:in `get_window_number' from /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/firewatir-1.6.2/lib/firewatir/ firefox.rb:162:in `initialize' from /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/commonwatir-1.6.2/lib/watir/ browser.rb:65:in `new' from /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/commonwatir-1.6.2/lib/watir/ browser.rb:65:in `new' from (irb):3 firefox shows a popup box telling me that only one instance of firefox can run simultaneously.

[wtr-general] Re: firefox on mac not quitting
Thanks, Richard, for your solution. I came up with a similar
workaround:
system("echo 'tell application \"Firefox\" to quit' | osascript -")
But I would need a little more code around it to make sure it only
runs when the tests are executed on a mac.

[wtr-general] Re: firefox on mac not quitting
I use appscript to quit Firefox like this:
in browserfactory.rb
---
require 'firewatir'
require 'appscript'
class BrowserFactory
def get_new_browser
# close Firefox if it's running
if Appscript.app('System Events').processes['Firefox'].exists()
Appscript.app('Firefox').quit
end
FireWatir::Firefox.new(:profile => 'firewatir')
end
def quit_browser
Appscript.app('Firefox').quit
end
end
in some_cucumber_steps.rb, which requires browserfactory (implicitly,
thanks to cucumber)
---
Before do
@browser_factory = BrowserFactory.new
@b = @browser_factory.get_new_browser
end
After do
@browser_factory.quit_browser
end
...
It would be nice if the APIs matched for the different flavors of
Watir, but for my current app, I'm only testing with FF on Mac, so
this works for me.

[wtr-general] Re: firefox on mac not quitting
Short answer: no. Dave Hoover says this is browser.quit in SafariWatir. Similar is IE.close_all. We need to figure out what to do to be consistent. Regardless, this problem should not be causing your scripts not to return. Can you provide more information? Something else may be happening.
