How to auto fill the user name and password in the pop up using selenium in Linux(Ubuntu)
I am using selenium web driver to perform the automation tests for a web application. When I give the URL to the browser it immediately pop ups asking for username and password which I actually want to automate from the script. (This I want to do for Linux platform not for Windows)
I've never done it with Linux, but I'm assuming its the same. Instead of typing url.com/otherstuff/, do username:password#url.com/otherstuff/

I've a test where it handles login system popup using Robot of Java. But because of some issues, other applications or browser instance come to front and Robot could not perform actions on system popup of Windows.
Hence before interacting with system popup using Robot, I want to bring that browser to front on machine. I tried following but it did not help -
((JavascriptExecutor)driver).executeScript("window.focus();");
Could you please suggest how I can bring it to the front?
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'm trying to write a selenium test which :
Connect to a website (which prompt an authentication window)
Click on "cancel" of the authentication window
Do some test stuffs...
But my problem is that : I am not able to cancel the authentication step.
My test should not depend on the environment (I don't want to change the Windows registry keys)
I found this chromium command "--auth-server-whitelist=..." that automatically fills and submit this prompt and I am looking for something that would always refuse the authentication.
Any Ideas ? Suggestions of better ways ?
I have given a scenario of automating putty and Website form.
Putty - Need to run list of commands in linux and extract an IP at end. and then have to open that IP in web Browser.
Web Browser - In Web browser I need to fill a form. (I will use Selenium to fill form).
Here I want to know, Can I automate both putty and Selenium (to fill web Form) as single Script ??
or any other alternative which can be used to automate both putty and web browser form filling..?
When the browser launch is initiated by SeleniumRC, a dialog box always comes to ask for username/password to login to our proxy server (however, it is prepopulated with username/password, all has to be done is just press the OK button).
selenium.open("/");
selenium.type("q", "selenium rc");
selenium.click("btnG");
selenium.waitForPageToLoad("10000");
assertTrue(selenium.isTextPresent("Results * for selenium rc"));
// These are the real test steps
//selenium.stop();
After the first command, the dialog box appears and I want to dispose of that dialog box PROGRAMMATICALLY. Any help?
I don't think you'll be able to address this just by using Selenium, that modal dialog is outside the JavaScript boundaries in which selenium works.
The two alternatives I can think of are:
Using WebDriver (soon to be merged into selenium 2.0): has native support over the browser, which allows you to do that kind of stuff.
Using an OS level automation library just for clicking that prompt and you go back to selenium with the rest. The libs available for this things are language dependent, so you will find a lot of different options as Robot for java or pyWinAuto for python.
Update: New alternative:
You can use autoIT as a simple and fast solution under windows.
