# Experimental WebDriver BiDi Support
[WebDriver BiDi](https://w3c.github.io/webdriver-bidi/) is a new cross-browser
automation protocol that adds browser-driven events to WebDriver. Here are the
resources if you want to learn more about WebDriver BiDi:
- [WebDriver BiDi - The future of cross-browser automation](https://developer.chrome.com/articles/webdriver-bidi/)
- [WebDriver BiDi: 2023 status update](https://developer.chrome.com/blog/webdriver-bidi-2023/)
## Automate with Chrome and Firefox
Firefox support has almost reaching feature parity with the previous CDP-based
implementation. To see which features are fully supported with WebDriver BiDi we
used the [Puppeteer test suite](https://puppeteer.github.io/ispuppeteerwebdriverbidiready/). Currently,
we still have fewer than
[60](https://puppeteer.github.io/ispuppeteerwebdriverbidiready/firefox-delta.json)
tests that are failing with Firefox and WebDriver BiDi compared to the previous
CDP implementation in Firefox but we also have more than
[82](https://puppeteer.github.io/ispuppeteerwebdriverbidiready/firefox-delta.json)
new tests that work with WebDriver BiDi and that didn't work with CDP.
For Chrome, around 68% of the tests are currently passing with WebDriver BiDi so
the CDP-based implementation remains more powerful. Some of the Puppeteer
functionality is relying on CDP even with WebDriver BiDi enabled. Therefore, the
test pass rate is currently higher than that one of Firefox.
Example of launching Firefox with WebDriver BiDi:
```ts
import puppeteer from 'puppeteer';
const browser = await puppeteer.launch({
product: 'firefox',
protocol: 'webDriverBiDi',
});
const page = await browser.newPage();
...
await browser.close();
```
Example of launching Chrome with WebDriver BiDi:
```ts
import puppeteer from 'puppeteer';
const browser = await puppeteer.launch({
product: 'chrome',
protocol: 'webDriverBiDi',
});
const page = await browser.newPage();
...
await browser.close();
```
