Problem Description - Upon clicking a link on the page, popup got blocked automatically.
file = new File("tools/chromedriver.exe");
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", file.getAbsolutePath());
caps.setCapability("ignoreZoomSetting", true);
caps.setCapability("nativeEvents", false);
driver = new ChromeDriver(caps);
Environment used – Selenium WebDriver – 2.43.0 ChromeDriver, Windows 7
Note – it is working fine on Firefox & IE, this issue is happening on Chrome only.
Please assist on this.
This is a Chrome Option to disable all popups for the site
Open Chrome.
Find a page that has pop-ups blocked for you.
At the end of the address bar, click the pop-up blocker icon chrome op-up
locked.
Click the link for the pop-up window you'd like to see.
To always see pop-ups for the site, select Always show pop-ups from [site].
Once you have this set use the profile it is saved against to load for the test
Another option is to open the site and Shift F5 to do a Cache Refresh
Load a Profile. The code below is C# and you haven't specified a language. Please see the links provided for Java examples
ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
userDataPath = "C:/Users/user_name/AppData/Local/Google/Chrome/User Data";
options.AddArguments("user-data-dir=" + userDataPath);
options.AddArguments("--start-maximized");
driver = new ChromeDriver("pathToChromeDriver", options);
You can pass the chromeOption to allow pop-up as shown in below:
Map<String, Object> prefs = new HashMap<String, Object>();
prefs.put("profile.default_content_setting_values.popups", 1);
ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
options.setExperimentalOption("prefs", prefs);
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(options);

I am using the below code to enable popup blocker. But this doesn't work.
Map<String, Object> prefs= new HashMap<String,Object>();
prefs.put("profile.default_content_setting_values.popups", 2);
ChromeOptions coptions= new ChromeOptions();
coptions.setExperimentalOption("prefs", prefs);
driver= new ChromeDriver(coptions);
I found a simple walkaround for this problem. We can find the window popups via WindowHandles and using a loop, we can switch to that window, close it and return back to the parent window. This also helps when the number of popup ads is varying.
When I run a browser with extension a pop up arise that says "Disable developer mode" to do so my script clicks on Disable, it opens a new tab with url "chrome://extensions/"
Now to click on checkbox of developer mode it always give an error "Unable to locate element."
driver.findelement(By.id("toggle-dev-on"));

Here is the solution for your Question:
As per best practices to work with Selenium 3.4.0 you must download the latest chromedriver v2.29 from here, update your Google Chrome to 58.x.
Updating your chromedriver to v2.29 will solve your issue of Disable developer mode
To work with Google Chrome you can take help of ChromeOptions Class as follows:
ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
options.addArguments("start-maximized");
options.addArguments("disable-infobars");
options.addArguments("--disable-extensions");
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(options);
driver.get("https://gmail.com");
Let me know if this solves your Question.
You need to modify the appropriate browser profile to have JS disabled. Like for FireFox/Chrome you can tell Selenium which profile to use.
Chrome :
Map prefs = new HashMap();
prefs.put("profile.default_content_setting_values.notifications", 2);
ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
options.setExperimentalOption("prefs", prefs);
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(options);
FireFox :
FirefoxProfile ffprofile = new FirefoxProfile();
ffprofile.setPreference("dom.webnotifications.enabled", false);
WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver(ffprofile);
Hope this will work out for your case.
I have included firebug when launching firefox driver and it works very fine with latest selenium web driver 3.0 but meanwhile it also opens new firebug tab every time when launching browser.
As code says, i have included firebug file and added this extension in created profile. Is there any way to close the firebug tab automatically after launching the browser? If there is no automatic way then i need to use tweak to close window named "Firebug" right?
Code:
File file = new File("./firebug-2.0.17-fx.xpi");
System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver", config.getStringProperty("geckodriver.path"));
DesiredCapabilities capabilities = DesiredCapabilities.firefox();
FirefoxProfile profile = new FirefoxProfile();
profile.addExtension(file);
capabilities.setCapability(FirefoxDriver.PROFILE, profile);
capabilities.setCapability("marionette", true);
webDriver = new FirefoxDriver(capabilities);
You can set the "showFirstRunPage" flag to "false" in your porfile.
FirefoxProfile profile = new FirefoxProfile();
profile.setPreference("extensions.firebug.showFirstRunPage", false);
Here is a link to all firebug preferences you can set.
Firebug Preferences
An other solution is to set the "currentVersion" to a big number like this.
profile.setPreference("extensions.firebug.currentVersion", "999");
I prefer the first on ;)
I was looking for automatically closing Firebug window but i think its not possible so posting an answer to handle opened windows after launching firebox browser with firebug capabilities, unfortunately you need to deal with extra lines of code due to this issue :)
Below solution it works fine, just use it like below:
Working code:
File file = new File("./firebug-2.0.17-fx.xpi");
System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver", config.getStringProperty("geckodriver.path"));
DesiredCapabilities capabilities = DesiredCapabilities.firefox();
FirefoxProfile profile = new FirefoxProfile();
profile.addExtension(file);
capabilities.setCapability(FirefoxDriver.PROFILE, profile);
capabilities.setCapability("marionette", true);
webDriver = new FirefoxDriver(capabilities);
// Close the firebug window
Thread.sleep(4000); // Firebug window takes time to open it
Set <String> windows = webDriver.getWindowHandles();
String mainwindow = webDriver.getWindowHandle();
for (String handle: windows) {
webDriver.switchTo().window(handle);
if (!handle.equals(mainwindow)) {
webDriver.close();
}
}
webDriver.switchTo().window(mainwindow);
Point 1. If I launched normal chrome driver without loading any profile then it would block all exe (keep/discard)
Point 2. When I provided my chrome profile, these are my observations:
Clean exe downloading normally
Download error exe giving same dialogue on chrome driver as normally on chrome browser
Issue is here: those exe which are througing alert of keep/decline popup normally ...those are normally downloading on driver.

I am loading chrome profile by this pattern
ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
options.addArguments("user-data-dir="+userProfile);
options.addArguments("--start-maximized");
options.addArguments("test-type");
DesiredCapabilities capabilities = DesiredCapabilities.chrome();
capabilities.setCapability(ChromeOptions.CAPABILITY, options);
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(options);
So this is the main Issue
One more thing: Actually these popups are not html pages. These are over layer on chrome so any technique to spy those using any other free tool? or selenium?
Try this maybe
((JavascriptExecutor) driver).executeScript("window.confirm = function(msg) { return true; }");
I am trying to send F11 to ChromeDriver, however it does not respond to it. When I press F11, it turns Chrome into fullscreen mode. When I send F11 through ChromeDriver, it does not. This is the same for any F-key in ChromeDriver. It works fine with FirefoxDriver and IEDriver, just not ChromeDriver. Is there any way I could get ChromeDriver into fullscreen mode ?
Note : Fullscreen mode is different from maximized mode, as it hides all toolbars.
I was able to solve it using kiosk mode, which keeps the browser in full screen
ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
options.addArguments("--kiosk");
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(options);
The argument is changed:
ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
options.addArguments("start-maximized");
Another option is change the startup script of google-chrome, set start-maximized as default.
ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
options.addArguments("--start-fullscreen");
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(options);
if you use RemoteWebDriver:
ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
options.addArguments("--start-fullscreen");
DesiredCapabilities capabilities = DesiredCapabilities.chrome();
capabilities.setCapability(ChromeOptions.CAPABILITY, options);
Instance = new RemoteWebDriver(new URL(<SeleniumServerURL>), capabilities);
driver.manage().window().fullscreen();
In my case, i fix the differences between selenium webdriver coordinates and screen absolute coordinates (root cause: chrome tab, header and address field size are ignored by selenium .getcoordinate mechanism) by this way:
String shortcutGoToFullScreen = Keys.chord(Keys.F11);
WebDriver.findElement(By.tagName("body")).sendKeys(shortcutGoToFullScreen);
Only one problem, that this fullscreen mode became non full after any page code updates. So, it should be used carefully )
Use --start-fullscreen argument to Specify the browser should start in fullscreen mode, like if the user had pressed F11 right after startup.
ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
options.addArguments("--start-fullscreen");
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(options);
You can change the behavior as you prefer by providing arguments to ChromeOptions.
Following link gives you in detail view of arguments and their behaviour. Hope it helps.

With Powershell/Selenium I wrote the script:
$Driver = Start-SeChrome -Fullscreen -StartUrl "https://........."
This worked perfectly for me
