Answer 1

You won't be able to use Firefox 50.1.0 with the jmeter-plugins-webdriver- 1.4.0

As you can see from ie Maven Repository WebDriver Sampler plugin version 1.4.0 depends on Selenium libraries 2.52.0 and according to Selenium changelog you can use the following Firefox versions:

This driver has been tested with Firefox 44 (current release), 43 (immediately prior release), 38 (current ESR release), and 31 (immediately prior ESR release).

So the options are in:

1. Downgrade your Firefox to version 44.
2. Manually upgrade your Selenium Java libraries to version 3.0.1

Answer 2

Yes, It is common when you use firefox different versions. Downgrade firefox to some versions like 44 or 45. Actually firefox 45.0 worked for me. And most important is the firefox should be installed in default directory (in windows "C:\\Program Files\\Mozilla Firefox" this will be the default). Hope it should work fine with you.
