Docker⁠ image: Firefox and GeckoDriver for headless tests on Alpine Linux

prantlf/geckodriver-headless

This image⁠ is supposed to help testing browser applications in headless Firefox⁠ driven by geckodriver⁠. This image is built automatically on the top of the tag latest from the [Alpine repository], so that it is always based on the latest Alpine Linux⁠. Firefox⁠ and geckodriver have to be updated from time to time by triggering a new build manually.

⁠Install

docker pull prantlf/geckodriver-headless

⁠Use

Run the container in the foreground:

docker logs geckodriver

Stop and remove the container after you stopped testing:

docker kill geckodriver
