I am using webDriver version 18,and I am trying to run my testCases on IE version 8 as I have Window XP.But I am facing this problem:-
ERROR: Unexpected error launching Internet Explorer. Protected Mode must be set to the same value (enabled or disabled) for all zones. (WARNING: The server did not provide any stacktrace information).How to resolve it,if anybody faced this type of problem?
Try the following code:
DesiredCapabilities ieCapabilities = DesiredCapabilities.internetExplorer();
ieCapabilities.setCapability(InternetExplorerDriver.INTRODUCE_FLAKINESS_BY_IGNORING_SECURITY_DOMAINS, true);
WebDriver driver = new InternetExplorerDriver(ieCapabilities);
If that doesn't work you will need a new user created by your IT people that does not have protected mode enabled (if you're unable to modify that value in the Options). I faced the same issue as you, and the above fixed it. Our IT policy is likely a bit more lenient.
Here are a few resources: Same issue with .NET, same issue with Watir, Configuration Settings.
This is a security option in IE. One solution is "INTRODUCE_FLAKINESS_BY_IGNORRING_SECURITY_DOMAINS" to set true in DesiredCapabilities.
The other solution is setting the right options in IE:
Go to InternetOptions in IE
Click on the security tab
There you can see the 4 zones
It is not important which security level is set for every zone. it is more important that every zone has the same security level.

I am using Selenium with ChromeDriver in .NET Core. All tests work fine locally, however fail in TeamCity with the following error:
Starting ChromeDriver 80.0.3987.106 (f68069574609230cf9b635cd784cfb1bf81bb53a-refs/branch-heads/3987#{#882}) on port 24272
Only local connections are allowed.
Please protect ports used by ChromeDriver and related test frameworks to prevent access by malicious code.
...
OneTimeSetUp: OpenQA.Selenium.WebDriverException : Cannot start the driver service on http://localhost:24272/
After the tests have finished, chromedriver.exe isn't terminated. There is nothing in the Windows event log or further details in the build logs, so I'm now stabbing in the dark.
I am using the following arguments, some added out of desperation:
var options = new ChromeOptions();
options.AddArgument("--headless");
options.AddArgument("--remote-debugging-port=9222");
options.AddArgument("--no-sandbox");
options.AddArgument("--no-first-run");
// See https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=737678
options.AddArgument("--disable-gpu");
Driver = new ChromeDriver(options);
Interestingly, the remote debugging port != the port in the first error. Not sure if this means anything. The Chromedriver documentation suggests that options are added without leading --, but removing this doesn't seem to have any effect.
FWIW the TeamCity agent is running as a local Windows service account on Windows Server 2008 R2 (yes, I know).
I want to sync automation result from jenkins to testlink. I tried with Testlink -jenking plugin and testlink-api-client but not worked getting error.
Pre-setup :
$tlCfg-> api-> enabled
$tlCfg-> exec_cfg-> enable_test_automation
From Testlink UI enable automation for the project.
Test code :
TestLinkAPIClient testlinkAPIClient = new TestLinkAPIClient(APIKEY, "http://localhost/testlink/lib/api/xmlrpc/v1/xmlrpc.php");
testlinkAPIClient.reportTestCaseResult(Project, TestPlan, TEST_CASE, Build, notes/comments, teststatus);
output :
"testlink.api.java.client.TestLinkAPIException: The call to the xml-rpc client failed.".

I browsed and try out defined steps from some of the blogs but still facing same issue?. Can anyone help me to resolve this issue or other approach on sync result with testlink ?.
I believe you should follow the documentation(1) written by kino who wrote the plugin.We recently managed to sync automation results from Jenkins to Testlink by following above doc.Our auto tests were written based on testng framework, Hence we used "testng-results.xml" and TestNg method name based result seeking strategy.
We didn't come across an issue as you mentioned. From (2) and (3) you can get the plugin source .My advice is to debug the code after enabling the debug on Jenkins hosted tomcat server. So you can find the actual cause of the issue by yourself.

You can run wireshark and filter on port "tcp port http" to see exact error you get from the server. When it was not working for us we were getting 200 OK with text "XML-RPC server accepts POST requests only."
You can also check /var/log/apache2/error.log for testlink errors.
We fixed the issue by setting following config in config.inc.php and restarting apache.
$tlCfg->api->enabled = TRUE;
$tlCfg->exec_cfg->enable_test_automation = ENABLED;
Environment:

I'm testing a website,which invokes a lot of Advertisement Systems,such as Google AD.
The browser takes a lot of time to connect to external AD links , even all the elements of the page has already been loaded.
If my internet network was not fast when I ran my tests on a webpage,
Selenium would wait for a very long time ,since the AD links responsed slowly.
Under this condition ,Selenium usually waits for over 60 seconds, and throws a timeout exception.
I'm not sure how Senelium works, but it seems that Selenium has to wait for a sign of webpage's full loading, then pulls the DOM to find elements.
I want to make selenium operate elements without waiting for connectiong to external AD links.
Is there a way to do that ? Thank you very much.
I would suggest that you could make use of a proxy. Browsermob integrates well with selenium, very easy to use it:
// start the proxy
ProxyServer server = new ProxyServer(4444);
server.start();
// get the Selenium proxy object
Proxy proxy = server.seleniumProxy();
// This line will automatically return http.200 for any request going to google analytics
server.blacklistRequests("https?://.*\\.google-analytics\\.com/.*", 200);
// configure it as a desired capability
DesiredCapabilities capabilities = new DesiredCapabilities();
capabilities.setCapability(CapabilityType.PROXY, proxy);
// start the browser up
WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver(capabilities);
I'm not sure how Senelium works, but it seems that Selenium has to
wait for a sign of webpage's full loading, then pulls the DOM to find
elements.
It is pretty much like this. The default loading strategy is "NORMAL" which means:
NORMAL of type DOMString
The remote end MUST wait until the "document.readyState" of the frame currently handling commands equals "complete", or there are no
more outstanding network requests other than XMLHttpRequests.
I finally found a simple solution for my condition.
I decide to block these Ad requests and tried some firewall and proxy softwares,for example,
comodo,privatefirewall, etc.
comodo is too heavy and complex ,privatefirewall doesn't support wildcards, and firewall would interrupt tests. At last I choosed a proxy software CCproxy. Trial Version is enough.
I create a rule for localhost ,to make it can request my test website domain only, and all other requests are rejected.
Running a test costs about 1-2 minutes　before and only 30 seconds now ,it's apparently more stable and fast without connecting to the useless Ad links.
Here're configuration steps:
1.launch CCproxy with Administor privilege( you should set it using Adminisrator in the file property)
2.click Options, select AutoStartup,select AutoDetected for Local IP Address. click OK.
3.create a txt file ,input your domains,like " *.rong360.com*;*.rong360.*; "
4.click Account, select PermitOnly for Permit Category;
click New, input 127.0.0.1 for IP Address/Range;
select WebFilter,click the E button at right side to create a filter;
click the ... button,select the text file you create at Step3,
select PermittedSites. click OK
click OK.
5.click OK to return to the main UI of CCproxy.
6.launch IE and config the local proxy with 127.0.0.1:808
other browsers will use this config automatically too.
now you can run the tests again , you'll feel better if have same condition :)
I want to use Selenium Webdriver and I am unable to do so because when I run my code, I get the following exception.
My code is very basic and as follows.
from selenium import webdriver
driver = webdriver.Firefox()
driver.get("http://www.google.com.bh")
assert "Google" in driver.title
driver.close()
Exception Message
selenium.common.exceptions.WebDriverException: Message: '<HTML><HEAD>\n<TITLE>Access Denied</TITLE>\n</HEAD>\n<BODY>\n<FONT face="Helvetica">\n<big><strong></strong></big><BR>\n</FONT>\n<blockquote>\n<TABLE border=0 cellPadding=1 width="80%">\n<TR><TD>\n<FONT face="Helvetica">\n<big>Access Denied (authentication_failed)</big>\n<BR>\n<BR>\n</FONT>\n</TD></TR>\n<TR><TD>\n<FONT face="Helvetica">\nYour credentials could not be authenticated: "Credentials are missing.".

It opens firefox but after that it is unable to connect to google or any other local sites.
The exception is at driver = webdriver.Firefox()
I googled around and I followed the link on SO.
But unfortunately I still get the same error.
I cannot run as the root user. I changed my proxy settings and set No Proxy element for localhost as well as mentioned in the link.
I am using Python 2.7 and have installed selenium 2.31 version.
I also tried setting proxy.
myProxy = "*********:8080"
proxy = Proxy({
'proxyType': ProxyType.MANUAL,
'httpProxy': myProxy,
'ftpProxy': myProxy,
'sslProxy': myProxy,
'noProxy': 'localhost,127.0.0.1,*.abc'
})
driver = webdriver.Firefox(proxy=proxy)
I also tried to set the proxy to system's proxy i.e., in the above code, 'proxyType': ProxyType.SYSTEM
But it again gives the above exception message.
is there a place where I have to set my username and password?
Any help would be appreciated!
Remove proxy settings from all the browsers on the system manually. I had IE, Firefox and Google Chrome.
When I removed the proxy settings of all the browsers and enabled the proxy only on Firefox,it worked without giving any errors. I do not know the exact reason why this works like this, may be got to do with the registry settings on windows which I am not sure about.
After doing the above said, I ran the basic code and it worked fine.
from selenium import webdriver
driver = webdriver.Firefox()
driver.get("http://www.google.com.bh")
assert "Google" in driver.title
driver.close()
I didn't set the proxy explicitly also. By default, it had taken the system's proxy settings. Hope this would help others facing similar issue.
How to handle cross-domain functionality in selenium.can any one explain me plz?
For ex: need to open Google.com and gmail, Using same selenium session object, I was seeing permission denied error , i tried with *iehta, Proxy injection mode as well it didn't work can you help me out..
I found this anwer on stackexchange.com:
You should be able to do so while using browsers with elevated
security privileges like *chrome for firefox. So you could just do
selenium.open("newURL");
in your test. Problem of changing URL is, it change in domain and
normal Selenium browser mode is restricted by Java Script's Same
Origin Policy, as I mentioned above browsers with elevated security
privileges should get you going.
I suppose this is the point where you are trying to load another URL
in same selenium session -
sel.open("www.google.com");
sel.waitForPageToLoad(stimeout);
First - don't use waitForPageToLoad, open api takes care of it.
Now if sel.open does not work then you should definitely encounter
error. Don't keep you method in try catch block and see the error you
encounter....

If can't open two different domains with one selenium object, try using a different object for each domain (e.g. an object called seleniumGoogle and an object calledseleniumGmail).
