Selenium invalid argument

Question

I'm trying to set up codeception.

When running any acceptance tests i get the following error:

> 1) FirstCest: Test
 Test tests\acceptance\FirstCest.php:tryToTest
 [Facebook\WebDriver\Exception\InvalidArgumentException] invalid argument

 - WebDriver
 - Asserts
 - \Helper\Acceptance
 config:
 WebDriver:
 url: 'www.google.com'
 browser: 'chrome'
 window_size: 1280x1280
 wait: 10

Im running chrome 81.

and I start my selenium-standalone server like so

java -jar .\selenium-server-standalone-3.141.59.jar

What argument am I mmissing ?

Thank you.

• Nico Haase: Why is this tagged with Composer?
• Naktibalda: Random guess - you missed http:// part of the url.

Answer 1

WebDriver url parameter must be a valid URL and start with a scheme - http:// or https://.
