I have been able to set this parameters like download folder and prompt for download in the following manner (Or similar, as I don't have that code right know):

 'extra_capabilities' => {

   'chromeOptions' => {

       'prefs' => {

           'download.default_directory' => '/Users/User/Desktop/my_folder',

           "download.prompt_for_download" => 0,

           "download.directory_upgrade" => 1,

       }

   },

   'binaray' => '/Users/User/Applications/Chromium',

}

I've been trying to do the same with firefox but I have not been able to get those properties anywhere. The only code I've found in other questions is for java using some profile objects which I think it's not available for perl.

This is a simplified version of my attempt but it doesn't seem to work. But it does not generate an exception either:

use Selenium::Firefox;

use strict;

use warnings;

use utf8;

use Selenium::Waiter qw/wait_until/;

$Selenium::Remote::Driver::FORCE_WD3=1;



my $driver = Selenium::Firefox->new(marionette_enabled => 1,

                                    capabilities => {

                                      "browser.download.folderList" => 2,

                                      "browser.helperapps.neverAsk.saveToDisk" => "tcx",

                                      "browser.download.dir" => '/Users/User/Desktop/myFolder/'

                                    } );

$driver->set_implicit_wait_timeout(3000);



my $url_to_download = "http://blablabla.com/blabla.tcx";

$driver->get($url_to_download);



$driver->quit();

$driver->shutdown_binary();

Thanks to the help of @Corion I've been able to make it work. This is the code I've used to create the driver:

my $driver = Selenium::Firefox->new(marionette_enabled => 1,

                                    extra_capabilities => {

                                      'moz:firefoxOptions' => {

                                        'prefs' => {

                                          "browser.download.folderList" => 2,

                                          "browser.helperApps.neverAsk.saveToDisk" => "application/tcx+xml",

                                          "browser.download.dir" => '/Users/User/Desktop/myFolder/'

                                        }

                                      }

                                    } );

In order to get the "browser.helperApps.neverAsk.saveToDisk" property just use the network inspector manually and get the content-type of the response.
