The server must process the key sequence as follows:
  * Each key that appears on the keyboard without requiring modifiers are sent \
as a keydown followed by a key up.
  * If the server does not support native events and must simulate key strokes \
with !JavaScript, it must generate keydown, keypress, and keyup events, in that\
 order. The keypress event should only be fired when the corresponding key is \
for a printable character.
  * If a key requires a modifier key (e.g. "!" on a standard US keyboard), the \
sequence is: <var>modifier</var> down, <var>key</var> down, <var>key</var> up, \
<var>modifier</var> up, where <var>key</var> is the ideal unmodified key value \
(using the previous example, a "1").
  * Modifier keys (Ctrl, Shift, Alt, and Command/Meta) are assumed to be \
"sticky"; each modifier should be held down (e.g. only a keydown event) until \
either the modifier is encountered again in the sequence, or the `NULL` \
(U+E000) key is encountered.
  * Each key sequence is terminated with an implicit `NULL` key. Subsequently, \
all depressed modifier keys must be released (with corresponding keyup events) \
at the end of the sequence.

<font size=6>*The !WebDriver Wire Protocol*</font>

<font size=3>*Status:* _DRAFT_</font>

<wiki:toc max_depth="3" />

= Introduction =

All implementations of WebDriver that communicate with the browser, or a \
RemoteWebDriver server shall use a common wire protocol. This wire protocol \
defines a [http://www.google.com?q=RESTful+web+service RESTful web service] \
using [http://www.json.org JSON] over HTTP.

The protocol will assume that the WebDriver API has been "flattened", but there\
 is an expectation that client implementations will take a more Object-Oriented\
 approach, as demonstrated in the existing Java API. The wire protocol is\
 implemented in request/response pairs of "commands" and "responses".

== Basic Terms and Concepts ==

<dl>
<dt>
==== Client ====
</dt>
<dd>The machine on which the !WebDriver API is being used.

</dd>
<dt>
==== Server ====
</dt>
<dd>The machine running the RemoteWebDriver. This term may also refer to a \
specific browser that implements the wire protocol directly, such as the \
FirefoxDriver or IPhoneDriver.

</dd>
<dt>
==== Session ====
</dt>
<dd>The server should maintain one browser per session. Commands sent to a \
session will be directed to the corresponding browser.

</dd>
<dt>
==== !WebElement ====
</dt>
<dd>An object in the !WebDriver API that represents a DOM element on the page.

</dd>
<dt>
==== !WebElement JSON Object ====
</dt>
<dd>The JSON representation of a !WebElement for transmission over the wire. \
This object will have the following properties:

|| *Key* || *Type* || *Description* ||
|| ELEMENT || string || The opaque ID assigned to the element by the server. \
This ID should be used in all subsequent commands issued against the element. ||

</dd>

<dt>
==== Capabilities JSON Object ====
</dt>
<dd>Not all server implementations will support every !WebDriver feature. \
Therefore, the client and server should use JSON objects with the properties \
listed below when describing which features a session supports.

|| *Key* || *Type* || *Description* ||
|| browserName || string || The name of the browser being used; should be one \
of `{chrome|firefox|htmlunit|internet explorer|iphone}`. ||
|| version || string || The browser version, or the empty string if unknown. ||
|| platform || string || A key specifying which platform the browser is running \
on. This value should be one of `{WINDOWS|XP|VISTA|MAC|LINUX|UNIX}`. When \
requesting a new session, the client may specify `ANY` to indicate any \
available platform may be used. ||
|| javascriptEnabled || boolean || Whether the session supports executing user \
supplied JavaScript in the context of the current page. ||
|| takesScreenshot || boolean || Whether the session supports taking \
screenshots of the current page. ||
|| handlesAlerts || boolean || Whether the session can interact with modal \
popups, such as `window.alert` and `window.confirm`. ||
|| databaseEnabled || boolean || Whether the session can interact \
database storage. ||
|| locationContextEnabled || boolean || Whether the session can set and query \
the browser's location context. ||
|| applicationCacheEnabled || boolean || Whether the session can interact with \
the application cache. ||
|| browserConnectionEnabled || boolean || Whether the session can query for \
the browser's connectivity and disable it if desired. ||
|| cssSelectorsEnabled || boolean || Whether the session supports CSS \
selectors when searching for elements. ||
|| webStorageEnabled || boolean || Whether the session supports interactions \
with [http://www.w3.org/TR/2009/WD-webstorage-20091029/ storage objects]. || 
|| rotatable || boolean || Whether the session can rotate the current page's \
current layout between portrait and landscape orientations (only applies to \
mobile platforms). ||
|| acceptSslCerts || boolean || Whether the session should accept all SSL \
certs by default. ||
|| nativeEvents || boolean || Whether the session is capable of generating \
native events when simulating user input. ||


</dd>

<dt>
==== Desired Capabilities ====
</dt>
<dd>A Capabilities JSON Object sent by the client describing the capabilities \
a new session created by the server should possess. Any omitted keys implicitly \
indicate the corresponding capability is irrelevant.</dd>

<dt>
==== Actual Capabilities ====
</dt>
<dd>A Capabilities JSON Object returned by the server describing what \
features a session actually supports. Any omitted keys implicitly indicate \
the corresponding capability is not supported.</dd>

<dt>
==== Cookie JSON Object ====
</dt>
<dd>
A JSON object describing a Cookie.

|| *Key* || *Type* || *Description* ||
|| name || string || The name of the cookie. ||
|| value || string || The cookie value. ||
|| path || string || (Optional) The cookie path.^1^ ||
|| domain || string || (Optional) The domain the cookie is visible to.^1^ ||
|| secure || boolean || (Optional) Whether the cookie is a secure cookie.^1^ ||
|| expiry || number || (Optional) When the cookie expires, specified in \
seconds since midnight, January 1, 1970 UTC.^1^ ||

^1^ When returning Cookie objects, the server should only omit an optional \
field if it is incapable of providing the information.</dd>

</dl>

= Messages =

== Commands ==

!WebDriver command messages should conform to the [http://www.w3.org/Protocols/\
rfc2616/rfc2616-sec5.html#sec5 HTTP/1.1 request specification]. Although the \
server may be extended to respond to other content-types, the wire protocol \
dictates that all commands accept a content-type of \
`application/json;charset=UTF-8`. Likewise, the message bodies for POST and PUT\
 request must use an `application/json;charset=UTF-8` content-type.

Each command in the WebDriver service will be mapped to an HTTP method at a \
specific path. Path segments prefixed with a colon (:) indicate that segment \
is a variable used to further identify the underlying resource. For example, \
consider an arbitrary resource mapped as:
{{{
GET /favorite/color/:name
}}}
Given this mapping, the server should respond to GET requests sent to \
"/favorite/color/Jack" and "/favorite/color/Jill", with the variable `:name` \
set to "Jack" and "Jill", respectively.

== Responses ==

Command responses shall be sent as \
[http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec6.html#sec6 HTTP/1.1 response \
messages]. If the remote server must return a 4xx response, the response body \
shall have a Content-Type of text/plain and the message body shall be a \
descriptive message of the bad request. For all other cases, if a response \
includes a message body, it must have a Content-Type of \
application/json;charset=UTF-8 and will be a JSON object with the following \
properties:

|| *Key* || *Type* || *Description* ||
|| sessionId || string|null || An opaque handle used by the server to \
determine where to route session-specific commands. This ID should be included \
in all future session-commands in place of the :sessionId path segment \
variable. ||
|| status || number || A status code summarizing the result of the command. \
A non-zero value indicates that the command failed. ||
|| value || `*` || The response JSON value. ||

=== Response Status Codes ===

The wire protocol will inherit its status codes from those used by the \
InternetExplorerDriver:

|| *Code* || *Summary* || *Detail* ||
|| 0 || `Success` || The command executed successfully. ||
|| 7 || `NoSuchElement` || An element could not be located on the page using \
the given search parameters. ||
|| 8 || `NoSuchFrame` || A request to switch to a frame could not be \
satisfied because the frame could not be found. ||
|| 9 || `UnknownCommand` || The requested resource could not be found, or a \
request was received using an HTTP method that is not supported by the mapped \
resource. ||
|| 10 || `StaleElementReference` || An element command failed because the \
referenced element is no longer attached to the DOM. ||
|| 11 || `ElementNotVisible` || An element command could not be completed \
because the element is not visible on the page. ||
|| 12 || `InvalidElementState` || An element command could not be completed \
because the element is in an invalid state (e.g. attempting to click a \
disabled element). ||
|| 13 || `UnknownError` || An unknown server-side error occurred while \
processing the command. ||
|| 15 || `ElementIsNotSelectable` || An attempt was made to select an element \
that cannot be selected. ||
|| 17 || `JavaScriptError` || An error occurred while executing user supplied \
!JavaScript. ||
|| 19 || `XPathLookupError` || An error occurred while searching for an \
element by XPath. ||
|| 23 || `NoSuchWindow` || A request to switch to a different window could \
not be satisfied because the window could not be found. ||
|| 24 || `InvalidCookieDomain` || An illegal attempt was made to set a cookie \
under a different domain than the current page. ||
|| 25 || `UnableToSetCookie` || A request to set a cookie's value could not \
be satisfied. ||
|| 28 || `Timeout` || A command did not complete before its timeout expired. ||

The client should interpret a 404 Not Found response from the server as an \
"Unknown command" response. All other 4xx and 5xx responses from the server \
that do not define a status field should be interpreted as "Unknown error" \
responses.

== Error Handling ==

There are two levels of error handling specified by the wire protocol: invalid \
requests and failed commands.

=== Invalid Requests ===

All invalid requests should result in the server returning a 4xx HTTP \
response. The response Content-Type should be set to text/plain and the \
message body should be a descriptive error message. The categories of invalid \
requests are as follows:

<dl>
<dt>*Unknown Commands*</dt>
<dd>If the server receives a command request whose path is not mapped to a \
resource in the REST service, it should respond with a `404 Not Found` message.

</dd>
<dt>*Unimplemented Commands*</dt>
<dd>Every server implementing the WebDriver wire protocol must respond to \
every defined command. If an individual command has not been implemented on \
the server, the server should respond with a `501 Not Implemented` error \
message. Note this is the only error in the Invalid Request category that does \
not return a `4xx` status code.

</dd>
<dt>*Variable Resource Not Found*</dt>
<dd>If a request path maps to a variable resource, but that resource does not \
exist, then the server should respond with a `404 Not Found`. For example, if \
ID `my-session` is not a valid session ID on the server, and a command is sent \
to `GET /session/my-session HTTP/1.1`, then the server should gracefully \
return a `404`.

</dd>
<dt>*Invalid Command Method*</dt>
<dd>If a request path maps to a valid resource, but that resource does not \
respond to the request method, the server should respond with a `405 Method \
Not Allowed`. The response must include an Allows header with a list of the \
allowed methods for the requested resource.

</dd>
<dt>*Missing Command Parameters*</dt>
<dd>If a POST/PUT command maps to a resource that expects a set of JSON \
parameters, and the response body does not include one of those parameters, \
the server should respond with a `400 Bad Request`. The response body should \
list the missing parameters.

</dd>
</dl>

=== Failed Commands ===

If a request maps to a valid command and contains all of the expected \
parameters in the request body, yet fails to execute successfully, then the \
server should send a 500 Internal Server Error. This response should have a \
Content-Type of `application/json;charset=UTF-8` and the response body should \
be a well formed JSON response object.

The response status should be one of the defined status codes and the response \
value should be another JSON object with detailed information for the failing \
command:

|| Key || Type || Description ||
|| message || string || A descriptive message for the command failure. ||
|| screen || string || (Optional) If included, a screenshot of the current \
page as a base64 encoded string. ||
|| class || string || (Optional) If included, specifies the fully qualified \
class name for the exception that was thrown when the command failed. ||
|| stackTrace || array || (Optional) If included, specifies an array of JSON \
objects describing the stack trace for the exception that was thrown when the \
command failed. The zeroeth element of the array represents the top of the \
stack. ||

Each JSON object in the stackTrace array must contain the following properties:

|| *Key* || *Type* || *Description* ||
|| fileName || string || The name of the source file containing the line \
represented by this frame. ||
|| className || string || The fully qualified class name for the class active \
in this frame. If the class name cannot be determined, or is not applicable \
for the language the server is implemented in, then this property should be \
set to the empty string. ||
|| methodName || string || The name of the method active in this frame, or \
the empty string if unknown/not applicable. ||
|| lineNumber || number || The line number in the original source file for the \
frame, or 0 if unknown. ||

= Resource Mapping =

Resources in the WebDriver REST service are mapped to individual URL patterns. \
Each resource may respond to one or more HTTP request methods. If a resource \
responds to a GET request, then it should also respond to HEAD requests. All \
resources should respond to OPTIONS requests with an `Allow` header field, \
whose value is a list of all methods that resource responds to.

If a resource is mapped to a URL containing a variable path segment name, that \
path segment should be used to further route the request. Variable path \
segments are indicated in the resource mapping by a colon-prefix. For example, \
consider the following:
{{{
/favorite/color/:person
}}}
A resource mapped to this URL should parse the value of the `:person` path \
segment to further determine how to respond to the request. If this resource \
received a request for `/favorite/color/Jack`, then it should return Jack's \
favorite color. Likewise, the server should return Jill's favorite color for \
any requests to `/favorite/color/Jill`.

Two resources may only be mapped to the same URL pattern if one of those \
resources' patterns contains variable path segments, and the other does not. In\
 these cases, the server should always route requests to the resource whose \
path is the best match for the request. Consider the following two resource \
paths:

  # `/session/:sessionId/element/active`
  # `/session/:sessionId/element/:id`

Given these mappings, the server should always route requests whose final path \
segment is active to the first resource. All other requests should be routed to\
 second.
