Using Selenium Grid to run Safari on MacOS Mojave

I'm trying to do a basic test using Selenium Grid to start Safari on a MacOS.
I have registered the node and its appears in my hub as the following.
Hub Confirmating node is up
browserTimeout: 0
debug: false
host: 10.120.45.211
port: 5558

registerCycle: 5000
remoteHost: http://10.120.45.211:5558

I understand that SafariDriver is now available directly within macOS and i'm using these steps to make sure it setup correctly.
If you haven’t already done so, make the Develop menu available. Choose Safari > Preferences, and on the Advanced tab, select “Show Develop menu in menu bar.” For details, see Safari Help.
Choose Develop > Allow Remote Automation.
Authorize safaridriver to launch the XPC service that hosts the local web server. To permit this, manually run /usr/bin/safaridriver once and follow the authentication prompt.
This is my JAVA code:
package SeleniumGrid;
import java.net.MalformedURLException;
import java.net.URL;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.remote.DesiredCapabilities;
import org.openqa.selenium.remote.RemoteWebDriver;
public class SafariRemoteAccess {
public static void main(String[] args) throws MalformedURLException {
DesiredCapabilities dc = new DesiredCapabilities();
dc.setBrowserName("Safari");
//Point to hub
WebDriver driver = new RemoteWebDriver(new URL("http://localhost:4444/wd/hub"), dc);
// Go to website via NODE
driver.get("https://www.hsbc.co.uk/");
driver.quit();
}
}
When I run the program i getting the following message.
Exception in thread "main" org.openqa.selenium.SessionNotCreatedException: Unable to create session from {

Update
This is the code im using to setup the NODE on the MacOS machine:
java -Dwebdriver.safari.driver=/System/Library/CoreServices/SafariSupport.bundle/Contents/MacOS/safaridriver.exe -jar selenium-server-standalone-3.141.59.jar -role node -hub 10.120.45.245:4444/grid/register -port 5558 -browser "browserName=Safari, platform=MAC, platformName=MAC, maxInstances=1"

It is not clear from your error stack trace if the Selenium Grid is on Mac OS X and to start the Selenium Node you are using the command:
java -Dwebdriver.safari.driver=/System/Library/CoreServices/SafariSupport.bundle/Contents/MacOS/safaridriver.exe -jar selenium-server-standalone-3.141.59.jar -role node -hub 10.120.45.245:4444/grid/register -port 5558 -browser "browserName=Safari, platform=MAC, platformName=MAC, maxInstances=1"
why would you see the error log as (relates to Selenium Grid):
Build info: version: '3.141.59', revision: 'e82be7d358', time: '2018-11-14T08:25:53'
System info: host: 'Mishal-Shahs-MacBook-Pro.local', ip: 'fe80:0:0:0:c9b:214f:9f0:2788%en0', os.name: 'Mac OS X', os.arch: 'x86_64', os.version: '10.14.2', java.version: '1.8.0_202'
Driver info: driver.version: unknown
Then again (first set relates to Mac OS X and second set relates to Windows 10):
Build info: version: '3.141.59', revision: 'e82be7d358', time: '2018-11-14T08:25:53'

Driver info: driver.version: unknown
However the command you have used to initiate the Selenium Grid Node is error prone as it contains both:
platform=MAC
platformName=MAC
Assuming the Selenium Grid Node is being initiated from the Windows 10 box the command should be:
java -Dwebdriver.safari.driver=C:\path\to\safaridriver.exe -jar selenium-server-standalone-3.141.59.jar -role node -hub 10.120.45.245:4444/grid/register -port 5558 -browser "browserName=safari, platform=WINDOWS, maxInstances=1"
Note: Ensure Safari browser is installed within the Windows 10.

How to use execute selenium automation scripts(java) using safari technology preview?

I wanted some help on running my automation scripts on Safari.
Im running my selenium webdriver scripts on Mac OS(High Sierra) and Safari 11.1.2
I have WebDriver Extension has been added to safari browser and I have enabled the 'Allow Remote Automation'
Here is the way i'm trying to invoke selenium webdriver:
SafariOptions safariOptions = new SafariOptions();
safariOptions.useCleanSession(true);
safariOptions.setUseTechnologyPreview(true);
WebDriver driver = new SafariDriver(safariOptions);
I have also installed Safari technology preview on my machine.
When I run my scripts, it throws below error:
org.openqa.selenium.SessionNotCreatedException: Could not create a session: A browser with name 'safari' version '(null)' could not be found on the system.

Inbetween it also said that "Safari driver requires safari 10 running on OSX EL Capitan or greater"

As occurs with other selenium webdrivers you should specify where is the binary of Safari to run it.
System.setProperty("webdriver.safari.driver", "/mypath/binary");
The path usually is /System/Library/CoreServices/SafariSupport.bundle/Contents/MacOS/safaridriver. And do it before your example lines.
And activate the Safari automation:

You have write wrong xpath :
//a[(text()='Gmail - Google']
True xpath is :
//a[text()='Gmail - Google']
You have add extra "("
If you want to use contains
//a[contains(text(),'Gmail')]
Use unique text instead of Gmail in above xpath

PhantomJS selenium NoSuchElementException

I have created a web crawler with Selenium (using selenium-server-standalone-2.47.1.jar) and phantomJs (phantomjs -v returns 1.9.0 on Ubuntu 14.04). The code was working fine with both with FirefoxDriver and PhantomJSDriver on Windows 10, but only works with FirefoxDriver under Ubuntu 14.04.
Sample code below:
public static void main(String[] args) {
DesiredCapabilities DesireCaps = new DesiredCapabilities();
DesireCaps.setCapability("phantomjs.binary.path", "/usr/lib/phantomjs/phantomjs");
WebDriver driver=new PhantomJSDriver(DesireCaps);
String Url = "https://xxx";
driver.get(Url);
WebElement rootWebElement = driver.findElement(By.id("main"));
List<WebElement> parentElements = rootWebElement.findElements(By.tagName("li"));
//243 , 240 (previous)
for (int i = 106; i < parentElements.size(); i++) {
WebElement href =parentElements.get(i).findElement(By.tagName("z"));
if(href!=null){
Scanner scanner = new Scanner(href.getAttribute("href"));
try {
scanner.parseXML(href.getAttribute("href"));
} catch (Exception e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
}
If you open the provided URL's source.... you can easily see that the tag with id="main" exists...

Post my comment as answer :)
You need to install PhantomJS 1.9.8 from https://bitbucket.org/ariya/phantomjs/downloads

Issue launching Phantomjs Selenium Web Driver

I'm using phantom.js driver for selenium in some java code.
It's a large project so i'll only copy what I think is the relevant code.
I had it working fine with the firefox driver.
I instantiate it here:
Capabilities caps = new DesiredCapabilities();
((DesiredCapabilities) caps).setJavascriptEnabled(true);
((DesiredCapabilities) caps).setCapability("takesScreenshot", true);
((DesiredCapabilities) caps).setCapability("timeoutInSeconds", 20);
((DesiredCapabilities) caps).setCapability(
PhantomJSDriverService.PHANTOMJS_EXECUTABLE_PATH_PROPERTY,
"/Applications/phantomjs-2.0.0-macosx/bin/phantomjs"
);
WebDriver driver = new PhantomJSDriver(caps);
driver.get(base_url+searchQuery.urlString());
Then when I run the program I get a list of errors:
SEVERE: org.apache.commons.exec.ExecuteException: Process exited with an error: 137 (Exit value: 137)
Exception in thread "main" org.openqa.selenium.remote.UnreachableBrowserException: Could not start a new session. Possible causes are invalid address of the remote server or browser start-up failure.

Its seems like it can't get the driver server to start.
