I want to write a script to scrap some data from aliexpress, so I need to be logged in first, When I try to login, Aliexpress ask for slide to verify sometimes, I made an script to do this in an automated way using selenium actions, but it gives the following error:
Screenshot of error
Well, I tried to it manually, But I am getting the same error, so it seems somehow aliexpress is detecting that its running in an automated environment, so please can you help me to avoid that.
Resources I used:
I used chrome_driver with brave browser and chrome but both didn't work.

I'm using MS Edge browser (Version 109.0.1518.78) along with Selenium to do some automated UI testing with my corp environment.
Trouble is, the tests are always prompting challenging me to login.
Now here's the confusion: when i use Edge normally, the browser uses my profile settings to auto-authenticate me. However, when running the tests (via Visual Studio), an Edge browser instance is started WITHOUT my profile.
First thing I tried:
I have tried following various example without any success, such as this one from SO. Using this example i added these 2 arguments like this:
This didn't do anything. So I'm wondering if maybe the arguments have changed? The edge driver documentation is worthless when it comes to this.
Second thing I tried:
I tried creating edge driver service with arguments of my edge driver path.
Unfortunately, i get a driver initialization error saying something about "msedge.exe".
Summary
The summarize, my problem is that my selenium tests are starting an edge browser instance without my default corp profile. therefore i am forced to manually login, which is what i want to avoid.
Note that occassionally things will work fine as expected. Then suddenly the next day it reverts to this default behavior again. I am no sure what is going on!
I am writing a selenium test which generates to many redirects error; yet, I can manually perform the test. The test fills in a userid and password and presses a login button. I had implemented this test on Chrome 96; however, it doesn't seem to work on chrome 99. I am using selenium 4.1.1. Additionally, the site switched to http/2 during this period. I appreciate any ideas on what the issue might be.
I'm trying to scrape my own banking information by automating the process using Selenium in Ruby.
I'm running into a bizarre situation where performing the exact same sequence in the browser (whether just the normal browser or private/incognito) works fine, but when I try to log in under a Selenium-controlled browser I get back a strange 500 error from the server.
I've noticed the browser console logs also look different in terms of certain logging messages related to cookies, JS errors, libraries being loaded, etc.
I have found an answer on SO mentioning one possible difference in Chrome being a specific "cdc" string that might be detectable, but is there some kind of corresponding difference in Firefox/Geckodriver that could be used to detect the fact that I'm trying to automate the browser?
I'm not really sure where to look, because my understand was that running via Selenium should basically have identical behaviour to running via the browser itself.
Would love some guidance on what mechanisms may be in play to explain the difference in behaviour!
As part of a testing project, I am trying to run a chrome instance as different user ('UserA') using Selenium and C#. I have tried all suggestions I could find, but nothing works. No matter what I do, the Chrome instance that is opened during the test, runs as the user logged into the machine and not as 'UserA'. Everything runs locally.
I am fairly new to this, so any advice/suggestion is appreciated
I'm not sure if there is a term for what I'm trying to do. I currently have a test suite using codeception for a php application. What I would like to do is be able to either of the following:
watch the browser automation in an actual browser
take over the browser at a specific point ( Sort of like a hand over from the script to the browser to allow me to continue to run a session )
Is this possible? If so what is it called in the selenium documentation
a) Selenium runs the actual browser and you can see what it is doing unless you configured Selenium to run some headless browser (but I don't know anything about headless browsers supported by Selenium);
b) Use Codeception's pauseExecution method to stop execution at specific point.
Documentation:
Pauses test execution in debug mode. To proceed test press “ENTER” in
console.
This method is useful while writing tests, since it allows you to
inspect the current page in the middle of a test case.
