## Historique du projet et usages

geckodriver is Mozilla's WebDriver proxy for controlling Gecko-based browsers such as Firefox from W3C WebDriver-compatible clients.

### Historique du projet

Mozilla's documentation describes geckodriver as a proxy between WebDriver clients and Gecko browsers. It exposes the WebDriver HTTP API and translates commands to Firefox's remote protocol, making it the browser-specific bridge for automation clients.

### Historique d'adoption

The Firefox Source Docs note that Selenium 3 made geckodriver the default WebDriver implementation for Firefox. The same usage documentation explains that FirefoxDriver was discontinued with Firefox 47 because it did not support Gecko's multi-process architecture.

### Modes d'utilisation

Package users install the geckodriver binary and make it available on PATH, or point Selenium clients at it explicitly. The official usage docs also call out container and Snap packaging details, because geckodriver and Firefox need to run in compatible filesystem and runtime environments.

### Pourquoi les passionnés de paquets s'y intéressent

geckodriver matters to package-manager users because it is the small native executable that makes Firefox automation work across Selenium, WebDriver test suites, CI jobs, and browser-compatibility tooling.

### Chronologie

- Firefox 47: FirefoxDriver was discontinued for lack of multi-process Gecko support.
- Selenium 3: geckodriver became the default WebDriver implementation for Firefox.

### Related projects

- Firefox, Gecko, Marionette, Selenium, and the W3C WebDriver protocol are the main adjacent projects named or linked from Mozilla's geckodriver documentation.
