Public bug reported:

Sometimes we need to set up a local integration CI test env for
debugging purposes. However, I hit this error
'selenium.common.exceptions.InvalidArgumentException: Message: binary is
not a Firefox executable' while running 'tox -e integration' [1] locally
on the ubuntu platform.

Upon investigation, I found that the root cause was because I had
installed firefox via snap rather debian package. Specifying
firefox_bin="/snap/firefox/current/usr/lib/firefox/firefox" for
selenium's WebDriver can fix the problem [2].

I also checked horzion code, although firefox_binary.py#WebDriver[3]
introduced the firefox_binary parameter, but the code calling it did not
pass firefox_binary to it, nor did it pass firefox_binary to selenium's
WebDriver.
