Scenario :
There is a button/link on a page opened in chrome browser and after clicking on a button/link it will navigate to the other link and opens in systems default browser i.e. Internet Explorer.
How to change the focus from chrome browser to internet explorer in selenium?
This is not possible.
You are starting your Chrome browser using the Chromedriver. You cannot handle Internet Explorer with your Chromedriver. You would need to use the IEDriver.
But as you did not start Internet Explorer using Selenium you would need to re-use an existing session. This is officially not supported see.
Nevertheless Tarun Lalwani was able to achieve this. See here and here.
I would suggest to save the link of the button/link before clicking on it and then start a new session using Internet Explorer and navigate to the saved link.
Help, please, dv question Selenium ChromeDriver.
Can I work in an already open Chrome browser? Or is it possible to open a new tab in an already open Chrome browser and work in it?
No, I do not believe this is possible.
They go to reasonable lengths to make Chrome display that it is being controlled by test software and presumably attaching to an existing browser window would create a vector for people to highjack the browser of unwitting users.
Chrome browser allows folder upload (using browse dialog) and recently post version 65 we are seeing a security popup which states that do you trust this site for uploading the files from folder.
This popup is causing the Automation to fail, is there any way to handle it using Selenium? like by using certain capability to bypass it or clicking it?
I already tried Alert accept/dismiss but it doesn't work as it seems that its not an alert. I also tried UIAutomation but it seems that elements are enclosed within the browser without any classname/ID's.
For the time being I have given a workaround of sending Keyboard Tab key and Enter keys.
Is there a proper way to bypass this dialog?
Any help will be appreciated.

I have created an application in selenium wherein it opens IE browser and enters user id and password by usind selenium's IE driver. However I want to prevent user from inspecting the auto data filled by selenium in the form. User can easily inspect the data using developer tools. So I want to know the way to disable developer tools options in selenium opened webpages.
Your help is highly appreciable.
Thanks.
Instantiate an instance of OpenQA.Selenium.Interactions.Actions then perform keystrokes for the F12 control. This should toggle on/off the developer tools in Chrome, IE, and Firefox.
I would also include a check to see if one of the controls from the devtools is there before toggling this, just to be sure that you don't turn them on instead of off.
c#:
OpenQA.Selenium.Interactions.Actions actions = new OpenQA.Selenium.Interactions.Actions([Instance of IWebDriver goes here]);
actions.SendKeys(OpenQA.Selenium.Keys.F12).Perform();
The application I am testing requires pop-up to be enabled. When a launch a new Firefox profile I get the browser message
Firefox prevented this site from opening a pop-up window
with a button on the right called Options. I can manually click the Options button and select to Allow popups from ....
Question is how can I use profile.setPreference to set to allow popups from my website and also not show this Firefox message?
You can save your current Firefox prifile with allowed popups and load it from file like in this case: https://stackoverflow.com/a/6830109/1165331
save you current working profile with popups via browser and loat it.
