I have been executing automation scripts for last 6 months without any issues. Suddenly chrome browser shows captcha screen and shows message that please confirm are you human ?.
Below that it states 2 points 1.JavaScript might be disabled 2. your cookies are not supported .I enabled both of the Java script and cookies but no luck.
I tried to execute older version of chrome browser also but I am getting same captcha screen in the older version of browser too.
The good thing is that I am not getting captcha screen in Firefox and edge browser. I am getting it only in the chrome browser.
May I know if chrome has introduced any functionality like if we execute automation scripts and it shows captcha screen because why I am getting this doubt that firefox and edge is not showing captcha screen.

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.
1.Clear IE 11 Browsing history, cookies etc.
2.Close the browser
3.Open the browser
4.Navigate to https://www.parcelforce.com
Expected: The parcelforce.com home page should load properly and quickly in IE11
Actual:
Page does not load properly. Also, on refresh the page takes a lot of time to load. Sometimes it may not load.
This issue is happening with IE11 only. Whenever I hit https://www.parcelforce.com in other browsers say chrome, Firefox, safari, website is loading quickly.
Can anyone suggest me what might be the issue with IE11. Should I need to add any code for IE11 to load website quickly?
Based on your description, I reproduced the problem you described. And I found some other things, when using the address bar and enter key (two or more times) navigation can make the page complete loading. But using ctrl+R or F5 to refresh cannot achieve the same effect. I checked the console in ie11 and did not find any error messages (except warning messages), so I am not sure if it is a compatibility-related issue or other issues in the code.
On the other hand, the Internet Explorer 11 desktop application will be retired and go out of support on June 15, 2022, I recommand that you could use some morden browsers, such as Chromium Edge.

I'm trying to execute Selenium-webdriver code written in Ruby for firefox.
I'm using firefox 45.0.1 because I use ruby 2.1.10 and Selenium-WEbdriver-2.53.4
When I execute Selenium opens firefox, enters address and enters username and password and hits login button.
But after that It stays there with loading symbol near login and also browser says
Transferring data from 34.23.23.2
Selenium is stuck here for 5 minutes and then exists saying timeout and gives below error.
**1.1) Failure/Error:**
#browser.span(:text=>'Login').wait_while_present(10000)

When I manually open firefox new tab when selenium opens the firefox and try to login manually, I see the same issue. But When I open firefox manually from desktop and login it works. Please tell me what I'm I missing here.
I suspect that some websites detect when a automated test is running and behave differently, also when selenium starts up it uses a default profile and when you open it manualy your profile is loaded. Cant say for sure that's your problem.
I am using Firefox 55.0.2 (64-bit) with selenium. The code works fine, however I see an icon in Firefox saying Browser is under remote control and the URL is highlighted in orange as shown in below screen shot.
Is there a way to disable this message in Firefox?
You wouldn't get that in the previous versions of firefox (version 45 or below). Its just an update and cannot be disabled. Even google chrome shows a message(chrome is autmated by a software). or you could just use the previous versions of the browser.
Maybe not related directly to selenium use,
But in case of getting stuck in "under remote control" after having launched firefox with a kind of:
firefox -marionette -foreground -no-remote -profile /path/to/existing/profile
It's because this way it toggles marionette:true in about:config,
Thanks to Firefox Stuck in Remote Control Mode for pointing to this marionette config entry
My web app uses IndexedDB and I'm testing on SauceLabs. Some months back my tests ran but now they block on a browser dialog that says "http://gbserver3.cs.unc.edu/" wants to: store files on this device", with an Allow button.
This is Win7 and Chrome or Firefox. Likely others too.
How can I dismiss or prevent this dialog?
Update: I have discovered that if I don't ask for quota I don't get the popup and my tests succeed. I'd still like to learn how to get rid of that dialog.
we are using Nightwatch.js in our project and we were facing the same issue.
What actually did the trick was using --unlimited-storage switch when launching the browser.
