Fix RuntimeException

in Selenium

Solution

RuntimeException in Selenium often arises from uncaught exceptions within WebDriverListeners or other event handling mechanisms. To fix, implement proper try-catch blocks within your listeners (e.g., using EventFiringDecorator) to handle exceptions gracefully, and log or re-throw them appropriately to avoid masking the root cause of the WebDriver failure. Ensure that uncaught exceptions are not propagating up to the Selenium core, terminating the execution flow unexpectedly.
