If you are using Watir 6.9 you can try:

omg3r = Watir::Browser.new :firefox, profile: 'omg3r', headless: true

Answer 2

example your browser is in case statement as firefox-remote

when "firefox-remote" options = Selenium::WebDriver::Firefox::Options.new(args: ['-headless']) browser = Watir::Browser.new :firefox, options: options
