I need to turn off the Marionette/GeckoDriver logging; is there is any way to do that? I've been searching a lot, but I am not getting the proper answer. The INFO logs were:

How do I turn off this logging?

You can disable the logs by sending them to /dev/null via a system property like so:

System.setProperty(FirefoxDriver.SystemProperty.BROWSER_LOGFILE,"/dev/null");

return new FirefoxDriver();
