Use custom webdriver profile

Question

Use custom webdriver profile

Closed this issue 8 years ago · 9 comments

Is there a way to use a custom driver profile with Zukini (like mentioned at this link)?
https://github.com/featurist/coypu#using-a-custom-selenium-webdriver-profile

Background to this is that our tests are breaking when using Chrome on TeamCity. We've worked out we solve this by adding the "no-sandbox" flag to ChromeOptions and using that driver. But I can't see how we can create our own BrowserSession with our custom driver in Zukini.

Many thanks.

Yes, you should be able to add a case in the Hooks.cs file in the
GetBrowser() method:

    /// <summary>
    /// Helper method to retrieve the browser based off of the string

that is passed in.
///

    /// <param name="browserName">Name of the browser.</param>
    /// <returns></returns>
    /// <exception cref="System.ArgumentException"></exception>
    private Browser GetBrowser(string browserName)
    {
        switch (browserName.ToLower())
        {
            case "firefox":
                return Browser.Firefox;
            case "chrome":
                return Browser.Chrome;
            case "ie":
            case "internetexplorer":
                return Browser.InternetExplorer;
            default:
                throw new ArgumentException(String.Format("Specified

browserName '{0}' is not valid.", browserName));
}
}

You could modify this code to accept another browser name (e.g.
"customfirefoxdriver". Then in the case, instead of returning one of the
default Browsers, return your custom Browser that uses your custom profile.

I can look at simplifying this and providing an example but that should do
the trick.

Let me know if you run into issues.

Thanks,

Mike

Hi @MikeMugu - Thanks for getting back to me.

I'm probably missing something, but I think I need to be able to create a coypu BrowserSession with this new custom profile, not just change the Browser in the SessionConfiguration. Going by the note at the bottom of the link I mentioned

When you pass a custom driver, the Driver and Browser settings in ConfigurationSettings are ignored

Changing the Browser in the method you picked out above would only change the type in the ConfigurationSettings that are being ignored?

Ah, I will have to take a closer look. Let me try to get you a working example this weekend if that works?

That would be fantastic - thank you.

Hello s-kavanagh,

I have published a new version of Zukini up that provides examples on how
to provide your own Chrome/Firefox driver. The example shows how to set the
no-sandbox flag in Chrome. Take a look at the Hooks.cs file that is located
in the Examples project. The commit is here:

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks,

Mike

Sure - good luck. It was a tricky one, took me a little while to figure out
what to do there. Hope it helps.
