webdriver-w3c v0.0.2 Release Notes

Release Date: 2019-01-01 // about 5 years ago
  • This version introduces significant changes to the API, prompted by changes in the script-monad dependency. The main change is that WebDriver and WebDriverT have been replaced by WebDriverT and WebDriverTT and are a more sensible monad transformer and monad transformer transformer, respectively. The main effect of this is that (1) WebDriver* types take an extra parameter for the effect monad, and (2) functions for working with WebDriver* now have additional Monad and MonadTrans constraints. The library will now only compile with GHC >=8.6 due to a transitive dependency on QuantifiedConstraints.
