I am using Selenium webdriver for testing application. I have firefox 48.0.1 installed windows 10 64 bit. I am using Marionette driver for application testing. However when I have mentioned :
WebDriver driver=new MarionetterDriver();
it gives the error :
Marionette driver cannot resolve to a type.
For the same, I have set
System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver", "D:\\ashwini\\geckodriver.exe");
This issue is may be because you are trying to run code that doesn't compile properly. Try checking for compilation errors before running your app. If you are sure its not a compilation issue try reconfiguring Eclipse with selenium 2
thanks for the reply,
issue is resolved by adding selenium server standalone jar into the project. I have downloaded the latest jar of it n was able to import "org.openqa.selenium.firefox.MarionetteDriver"
You are initializing the wrong WebDriver. You must initialize FirefoxDriver as:
WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
If you are using Selenium Standalone jar version 3.0.0-beta then no need to pass marionette in capabilities. If you are using Selenium Standalone jar less than 3.0.0-beta then you need to pass marionette as capabilities and initialize FirefoxDriver as follows:
DesiredCapabilities capabilities = DesiredCapabilities.firefox();
capabilities.setCapability("marionette", true);
WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver(capabilities);
Tried with geckodriver v 0.10.0. Hope this helps.

I have application where I need to use Selenium with Firefox Webdriver.
I'm using below configurations:
OS : Windows 8
IDE : Eclipse
Selenium 3 and tomcat7.
Mozilla version : 54.0.1
Geckodriver version: 0.18.0
Here is the code snapshot of what I've done so far.
System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver", "C:\\Users\\dalakada1\\Desktop\\dev\\geckodriver.exe");
System.out.println("1");
DesiredCapabilities capabilities = DesiredCapabilities.firefox();
System.out.println("2");
capabilities.setCapability("marionette", true);
System.out.println("3");
try
{
System.out.println("3.5");
//create driver
WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
System.out.println("4");
It doesn't go beyond 3.5.
I searched on Google and could not find anything useful.
Do I need to include geckodriver.exe in web-inf/res?
System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver", "C:\\Users\\vinil\\Downloads\\geckodriver-v0.11.1-win64\\geckodriver.exe");
WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
driver.get("http://www.jobserve.com/in/en/Job-Search/");
driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[#id='ddcl-selInd']/span/span")).click();
Thread.sleep(5000);
driver.quit();
[]
This happens on driver.quit() when you are closing the browser.
It is unfortunately known issue when quitting geckodriver firefox instance, see this links for details.

My code is not launching browser.
Project show running for a long time, but nothing happens. I pushed print and observed that WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(); is not getting executed.
package seleniumautomation;
import org.openqa.selenium.*;
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;
public class seleniumautomation {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver","D:/selenium_java/chromedriver.exe");
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();
driver.navigate().to("https://www.zaakpay.com/");
}
}
After some debugging, I am getting this new error:
I added manifest_vesion, but in every run, it is generating a new file and i am again getting same error.
Download jar from: http://chromedriver.storage.googleapis.com/index.html?path=2.23/
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver",
"<Downloaded file location>");
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();
driver.get("https://www.zaakpay.com/");
Then, it will work.
To use Chrome Browser needs to System.setPropert("webdriver.chrome.driver","PATH")
The ChromeDriver is maintained / supported by the Chromium project iteslf. WebDriver works with Chrome through the chromedriver binary.
Download Link of ChromeDriver : LINK
You need to add chromedriver.exe(can be downloaded from http://www.seleniumhq.org/download/) to your project. Along with it, you need to add following lines in your code:
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", PATH_TO_EXE_FINAL);
capabilities= DesiredCapabilities.chrome();
capabilities.setBrowserName(DesiredCapabilities.chrome().getBrowserName());
Use following code snippet to launch chrome driver.
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", PATH_TO_EXE_FINAL);
ChromeOptions opt = new ChromeOptions();
opt.addArguments("disable-extensions");
opt.addArguments("--start-maximized");
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(opt);
I solved the issue by changing my OS windows 10 language to english. selenium methods can not execute some other languages. If in both IE, geckodriver and chrome you are having the same issue it is language problem I can asuure you
enter image description hereTrying to check the version you installed in web driver and the version you currently use in you chrome
I am using Selenium and trying to initialize the Chrome driver to start without a start up window.
ChromeOptions options= new ChromeOptions();
options.addArguments("--no-startup-window");
//I tried this line also: options.addArguments("--silent-launch");
DesiredCapabilities capabilities = DesiredCapabilities.chrome();
capabilities.setCapability(ChromeOptions.CAPABILITY, options);
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(Capabilities);
I am getting the following exception:
Unknown error: Chrome failed to start: exited normally
Can anybody help me?
You need to download the binary first from selenium website, download binary according to your specifications:-
http://chromedriver.storage.googleapis.com/index.html?path=2.19/
Now set below code so selenium script will know the path of your binary
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver","./src\\lib\\chromedriver.exe");
So the code should be like this:-
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver","./src\\lib\\chromedriver.exe");
ChromeOptions options= new ChromeOptions();
options.addArguments("--no-startup-window");
//I tried this line also: options.addArguments("--silent-launch");
DesiredCapabilities capabilities = DesiredCapabilities.chrome();
capabilities.setCapability(ChromeOptions.CAPABILITY, options);
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(capabilities);
Hope it will help you :)
I think the flag you are looking for is --headless
This feature has just been implemented in chrome 57
--no-startup-window is used for hosting background apps, see this page and as mentioned in the other answers doesn't launch a window which is why the webdriver can't talk to it.
--headless does launch a window, but doesn't make it visible.
I am using Selenium and trying to initialize the Chrome driver to start without a start up window.
According to Selenium GitHub (Strange error, chromedriver with --no-startup-window), Selenium requires JavaScript and Chrome window to work:
Much like --disable-javascript, the chromedriver will not work if you use --no-startup-window.
It needs to launch a window to establish the connection with the AutomationProxy.
I'm having the following issue:
When I'm running my automation tests, I keep getting the following alert "Disable Developer Mode Extension" in Chrome.
Is there a way to remove/disable this?. It is a blocker for me as it is making me fail some tests.
Thanks in advance
Did you try disabling the developer extensions with command line param?
Try with the following Selenium WebDriver java code:
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "D:\\chromedriver.exe");
ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
options.addArguments("--disable-extensions");
driver = new ChromeDriver(options);
I cannot disable extensions because I'm developing & testing one.
What I'm doing to dismiss this popup is the following:
I load chrome with my extension using Selenium.
I then immediately create a new window (via the SendKeys(Control-N) method). This predictably brings up the "Disable Developer Mode Extensions" popup after 3 seconds in the new window.
I can't tell programmatically when it pops up (doesn't show in screenshots) so instead I simply wait 4 seconds.
Then I close the tab via driver.Close(); (which also closes this new window). Chrome takes that as "cancel", dismissing the popup, leaving the original window and tab.
I find this necessary because the popup interferes with normal selenium browser interaction, like SendKeys, which I'm using to switch tabs and windows.
As of Chromedriver v2.33, the correct way to avoid this message is to pass load-extension to the excludeSwitches argument of the chromeOptions object. The following Java code should do the trick, although I haven't tested it, as I am running Python:
ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
options.setExperimentalOption("excludeSwitches", Collections.singletonList("load-extension"));
As others have pointed out, the culprit is probably the Chrome Automation Extension, which is loaded automatically by Chromedriver when it launches Chrome.
Chromedriver v2.33 introduced the new switch to prevent the extensions from being loaded:
Updates to excludeSwitches capability that now allows to exclude --load-extension switch.
I suspect that this solution does not require you to disable all extensions. You should still be able to manually load others.
This has been automatically fixed with a combination of ChromeDriver.exe V2.23 + Chrome 53.0.
To understand which chrome version will work with which driver, we can use the following well detailed doc: https://sites.google.com/a/chromium.org/chromedriver/downloads
Enjoy Automated Testing!!
I worked around this issue by using AutoIT.
First, you'll need to create the script.
closechromewarning.au3:
WinWaitActive("[CLASS:Chrome_WidgetWin_1]")
Send("{ESC}")
The script needs to be compiled to a .exe, then place the .exe in the path so it can be run.
Function that closes the warning, using c# syntax:
public void CloseChromeDialog()
{
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(5000);
Process.Start(#".\closechromewarning.exe");
}
Sleep(4000) did work, but I upped it to Sleep(5000) just to be sure.
Calling CloseChromeDialog():
if(browser == chrome) //pseudo code
CloseChromeDialog();
resolved in chrome 54 and chromedriver 2.25
I too faced this problem. The solution is, if you are using maven then just add:
-Dchrome.switches=--disable-extensions
It will disable all the extensions and you will not face this problem.
I am using selenium Webdriver 2.53 and chrome version 56.0.2924.87 and the chrome driver.exe which I am using is 2.27. with this combination it is working with the
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "./utilities/chromedriver.exe");
ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
options.addArguments("--disable-extensions");
DesiredCapabilities caps = new DesiredCapabilities().chrome();
caps.setCapability(ChromeOptions.CAPABILITY, options);
driver = new ChromeDriver(caps);
Try to add setProperty above ChromeDriver instance
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver","C:/[PATH]/chromedriver.exe");
driver = new ChromeDriver(capabilities);
pywinauto works
import pywinauto
window_title = "Disable Developer Mode Extensions"
app = pywinauto.Application().connect(name_re=window_title)
win_ext = app.window(name=window_title)
win_ext.close()
This is because one of your extensions is running in developer mode. Go through your extension list and disable extensions one-by-one until you find the culprit(s).
