function DriverInterface::start

Starts driver.

Once started, the driver should be ready to visit a page.

Calling any action before visiting a page is an undefined behavior. The only supported method calls on a fresh driver are

  • visit()
  • setRequestHeader()
  • setBasicAuth()
  • reset()
  • stop()

Calling start on a started driver is an undefined behavior. Driver implementations are free to handle it silently or to fail with an exception.

Return value

void

Throws

DriverException When the driver cannot be started
