Public bug reported:

The recent update of Firefox 36, available now on Ubuntu Trusty used on
the gate, broke selenium and all gate-horizon-dsvm-integration are
failing with errors like: WebDriverException: Message: Can't load the
profile. Profile Dir: %s If you specified a log_file in the
FirefoxBinary constructor, check it for details.

See for example: http://logs.openstack.org/60/157760/4/check/gate-
horizon-dsvm-integration/fd3c268/console.html


A new version of Selenium has not been released yet. See the Selenium bug: 
https://code.google.com/p/selenium/issues/detail?id=8399). 


I think this should be solved on infrastructural level (pinning firefox 
version, for example). After some IRC discussion it seems it's not the solution 
which is going to be implemented, and the job will be non-voting instead. This 
means that people can't rely on at all on results from that test (they are not 
even starting) until the new selenium pip packages are available, and we could 
suffer from unexpected issues when the tests are reenabled because of some 
patch which seemed to work locally but not on the gate. That said, who codes 
decides.
