With version 2.30, selenium webdruiver has given in built support for Safari browser.
I want to know how to handle SSL Certificates in Safari (which is installed on Windows).
Below piece of code I tried but its not working:
DesiredCapabilities capabilities = new DesiredCapabilities();
capabilities.setCapability(CapabilityType.ACCEPT_SSL_CERTS, true);
capabilities.setBrowserName("SAFARI");
driver = new SafariDriver(capabilities);
driver.get("https://MYDUMMYSITE");
I have countered the same problem. It seems that the Safari browser is using the same certification mechanism as Internet Explorer, and theoretically, you can use it to install certification and it should solve the problem.
Instruction can be found here
This did not work for me, so I used AutoIt script to click on the continue button, compiled the script the EXE and called it from my test.
The script I used:
WinWait("[CLASS:#32770]","",60)
WinActivate("[CLASS:#32770]","")
Send("{SPACE}")
Baiscally, it will wait 60 seconds for the "Safari can't verify the identity of the website" message, set the window on focus and click on the space bar button.

Need to test responsive design for web app. I understand that browser didn't emulate like real device or even device emulator, but i don't need it.
Note: i'm looking for not to run Safari inside emulator, but to activate mobile emulation in Safari
question 1:
Is it possible to start Safari via selenium with predefined mobile emulation, like in Chrome here
Map<String, String> mobileEmulation = new HashMap<>();
mobileEmulation.put("deviceName", "Nexus 5");
ChromeOptions chromeOptions = new ChromeOptions();
chromeOptions.setExperimentalOption("mobileEmulation", mobileEmulation);
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(chromeOptions);
if answer no(assume it will be no), question 2:
is it enough to resize Safari window to required device viewport size?
Setting the browser width isn't enough as many of today's web pages use the useragent as a means to determine the device that is viewing the page. Afaik, there is no way and I've been trying to find a solution to this for a while. Safari doesn't give automated control to set the user agent nor the mobile mode of its desktop browser.
There is a way to do what you want here though: https://webkit.org/blog/9395/webdriver-is-coming-to-safari-in-ios-13/
But the requirement is you need an iPhone connected to your laptop to run the test from and you need to add these capabilities to your configuration
safari:deviceType
safari:useSimulator
Read the man file for safaridriver for more info.
If you need to set the useragent, you can do it via the command line, but you need to reset it after https://tarunlalwani.com/post/selenium-change-user-agent-different-browsers/
I am automating the application using selenium which is enabled with SSO(VIDM) integration which will take my system domain name and password. The moment I hit the application URL, It will process the SSO(VIDM) and displaying the browser pop up with SSL certificate , OK button. I am unable to locate "OK" button as inspect is blocked for that pop up.
Manual Work Around noticed: Able to select that certificate from the pop up with out clicking okay button by placing the cursor in Chrome driver address bar and then perform enter using the system keyboard.Please see the image here
Add the below chromedriver option to launch specific profile.
ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
options.addArguments("user-data-dir=/path/to/your/custom/profile");
ChromeDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(options);
Refer to chromedriver page for more information.

I want to open an application website on Firefox browser using Selenium Webdriver as a different user.
Currently, I am using gecko driver to open that application link, it successfully opens up the browser but unable to open the application link.
But I am able to achieve the same manually by going to Mozilla Firefox icon and clicking on
"Run as different user"
option (as shown in below image) which further open a popup for user credentials and by entering Username and Password of different user there I am able to open the application link in browser.
So, is there any way that I can achieve same process using Selenium Webdriver and opens up my application link.
Thanks in Advance!!
You should rather create Firefox profile by running firefox.exe -p to launch profile manager. Then you can instantiate firefox web driver implementation and configure it to use given profile.
Are you sure that you want to use pre-configured profile? I find much easier to manage to run drivers in private/incognito mode and set cookies manually to configure tests.
You might provide firefox_binary as a parameter for the webdriver:
http://selenium-python.readthedocs.io/api.html
firefox_binary – Instance of FirefoxBinary or full path to the Firefox
binary. If undefined, the system default Firefox installation will be used.
...so, you might use a wrapper script to run firefox as the different user (use sudo in Linux).
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
I have a situation here that we have a webGL dependent application to automate. i have automated the whole application on my laptop, and this application is running fine on chrome on my laptop. but the issue is when i run this application from a seperate machine which is a selenium GRID node. It gives me a message that the application required Webgl and and it ask me to enable the webGL. i have tried different methods like selenium option and ignoring the chrome black list as well.
when i open the browser manually and open the application it runs find and i checked on url chrome://gpu. it shows that the gpu is enaled.
but when i invoke the selenium and run the test cases,. the browser initiates with WebGl as disabled
i found the solution to this. here is the code you can use to enable WebGL for chrome.
DesiredCapabilities capability = DesiredCapabilities.chrome();
ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
**options.addArguments("--ignore-gpu-blacklist");**
capability.setCapability(CapabilityType.ACCEPT_SSL_CERTS, true);
capability.setCapability("chrome.binary", "C:\\Temp\\chromedriver.exe");
capability.setVersion("9999");
capability.setCapability(ChromeOptions.CAPABILITY, options);
return new RemoteWebDriver(HUB_URL,capability);
