Answer 1

You are using selenium version that doesn't support Firefox version 32.

And since currently there is no selenium java package version that claiming support for Firefox 32, you need to downgrade your browser. In your case, downgrade it to Firefox 28 , which is listed as supported by selenium 2.42.2.

Answer 2

Please upgrade to 2.43.1 [ http://www.seleniumhq.org/download/] . The new version works for FF32.

Answer 3

You can follow link below in the future for check supported versions FF vs. WebDriver. I use it if I want to update browser or webdriver library.
