Question: Any plans to support newer Edge versions?

[dalgibbard]

Firstly, Hi, and thanks for providing this :)

I was just curious if there's any scope to support a newer edge version, where this currently uses v.89 (and actually doesn't build locally for me, because the package doesn't seem to be in apt anymore)

I've tried various ways to build with v98, but so far no luck. I'm starting to assume that newer Edge versions/drivers just aren't Selenium3 compatible...
When trying with v98, I keep getting:

I get this even if I set JAVA_OPTS=-Dwebdriver.edge.driver=/opt/selenium/msedgedriver too.

Would appreciate your thoughts :)

I was able to get it to work with 95.0.1020.40 edge version. So I think it should be possible but need to find a way to automate the process of getting the latest version

Its fixed now, there was a bunch of json parsing errors, so the image is building successfully.

Oh great! I noticed that the selenium team have a way of fetching the latest stable version in their gridv4 version here, which might help?: https://github.com/SeleniumHQ/docker-selenium/blob/trunk/NodeEdge/Dockerfile.txt

It would also be very handy to have a 'debug' version of the edge image (comes bundled with VNC for debugging and other integrations)?
Edit: that said, we can add that on our side if that's too niche of a requirement for here :) looks like they take the created node image, add vnc, and drop another supervisord config in:
