Docs: Drop Selenium and PhantomJS?

[ThomasLandauer]

The docs should give clear recommendations about which tools are best.

• @DavertMik told me already 3 years ago that PhantomJS is deprecated (Overview table for test suites Codeception#4267 (comment)). But it's still mentioned at https://codeception.com/docs/modules/WebDriver#PhantomJS. So my question is: Either remove it completely from the docs? Or just add a big caution box?
• Regarding Selenium I'm not up to date, so my question is: Is anybody still using Selenium Standalone Server (see https://codeception.com/docs/modules/WebDriver#Selenium)? Or everybody Chrome Driver directly? What would be the advantages of using Selenium Standalone? What about GeckoDriver, can it be used directly too?

Either remove it completely from the docs? Or just add a big caution box?

Yes, we should remove it. Could you send PR to docs removing it?

Is anybody still using Selenium Standalone Server

Yes

Or everybody Chrome Driver directly?

I didn't have a good experience with it

[ThomasLandauer]

At the WordPress page, the entire example is based on PhantomJS. Please change that yourself - I haven't used this ever :-)

Do you mean you don't have much experience with it? Or bad experience (i.e. didn't work for you)?

What I don't really understand: The communication flow is between php-webdriver and ChromeDriver. How can it be that this gets better when adding an additional intermediate (Selenium)?

PhantomJS was removed from docs, but isPhantom is still used in various methods and there is phantomjs environment in web.suite.yaml

[ThomasLandauer]

What is web.suite.yaml? Do you mean acceptance.suite.yml?
And do you mean the environment still exists there in principle or that it's (auto-)generated upon installation?
