When trying to access a specific test environment with Chrome, spawned by protractor/ selenium webdriver, a chrome popup is displayed prompting me to select the client certificate to use to authenticate with this site.
There's only one certificate installed - is there any way for this to be autoselected?
Try to add following configuration to Protractor conf.js:
capabilities : {
browserName : 'chrome',
'chromeOptions': {args: ['--test-type']}
}
I use CucumberJs and Gulp to run my e2e tests; However, I need to run them against Microsoft Edge. When I do gulp protractor, it successfully opens up both Chrome and Firefox, since neither of them require any drivers like IEDriver.exe or EdgeDriver.exe.
Could anyone point me to an article or show the steps below if it's simple on how to set up Protractor with Microsoft Edge?
I'm trying to achieve parallelism by executing my tests on multiple browsers; this is what my config looks like:
exports.config = {
framework: 'cucumber',
shardTestFiles: true,
maxInstances: 2,
multiCapabilities: [
{
'browserName': 'MicrosoftEdge',
'platform': 'windows',
}
},
{
'browserName': 'firefox',
loggingPrefs: {
driver: 'DEBUG',
server: 'INFO',
browser: 'ALL'
}
}],
//more configs here
}
I achieved the config right above, to run protractor e2e tests in parallel, using this article: http://blog.yodersolutions.com/run-protractor-tests-in-parallel/
Also one for IE driver would be just as helpful if you don't know how to set up Edge.
UPDATES:
From this link: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/mt188085(v=vs.85).aspx; under the
Enabling WebDriver with Microsoft Edge:
Download a WebDriver language binding of your choice. Currently C# and
Java Selenium language bindings are supported.
I'm not using Java or C#, I am only using Javascript (Protractor); does that mean that the language binding for Javascript currenlty does NOT work for Edge browser?
In other words, we currently cannot automate the Edge browser using Protractor (Javascript)?
Any help much appreciated and I'll update this post if I find anything pertaining to setting up Protractor with Edge, been looking around the web for hours now.
After some struggle, I got Protractor to work on Microsoft Edge on my Windows 10 system.
Note: I'm using the Jasmine2 framework instead of Cucumber, but I believe the steps below should work for Cucumber as well. I'll try with Cucumber later and update here.
Here are the steps:
Get the Microsoft EdgeHTML version number in use in your system. In my case it is 15.15063. Take a note of the release number here. In this case it is 15063.
(Q.: How to get the Microsoft EdgeHTML version number?
A.: Edge browser > ... > Settings > About this app)
download the correct Release of MicrosoftWebDriver.exe from https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/tools/webdriver/
In my case I downloaded Release 15063. If you get the wrong release, then you are likely to run into an error like this error:
"This version of MicrosoftWebDriver.exe is not compatible with the installed version of Windows 10."
place the MicrosoftWebDriver.exe in the folder where the other drivers are like:
C:\Users\yourname\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules\protractor\node_modules\webdriver-manager\selenium\
Adjust your conf.js file. Essentially, this is what conf.js should have:
seleniumAddress: 'http://localhost:4444/wd/hub',
capabilities: // or multiCapabilities:
{
'browserName': "MicrosoftEdge"
}
start the webdriver-manager like this:
C:\your\path>webdriver-manager start --edge C:\Users\yourname\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules\protractor\node_modules\webdriver-manager\selenium\MicrosoftWebDriver.exe
You are all set to run your Protractor tests on the Edge browser.
Good Luck!
In windows to download the MicrosoftEdge Webdriver for the HTML version >= 18 then follow the below steps
Open Command Prompt, issue the following command and wait until operation gets completed
DISM.exe /Online /Add-Capability /CapabilityName:Microsoft.WebDriver~~~~0.0.1.0
Open the File Explorer and navigate to C:\Windows\WinSxS and search for MicrosoftWebDriver and it will display two results, copy the webdriver from the amd64_microsoft-webdriver-server-components10.0.18362.1_none and paste it in
/c/Users/Administrator/AppData/Roaming/npm/node_modules/protractor/node_modules/webdriver-manager/selenium
(Note: Using git bash, it's easy to copy the Webdriver)
In the config file of Edge browser, make the following changes
seleniumArgs:['-Dwebdriver.edge.driver=C:\\Users\\Administrator\\AppData\\Roaming\\npm\\node_modules\\protractor\\node_modules\\webdriver-manager\\selenium\\MicrosoftWebDriver.exe'],
capabilities: {
'browserName': 'MicrosoftEdge',
'maxInstances': 1,
'platformName': 'windows',
'nativeEvents': false,
shardTestFiles: true,
},
Open the command prompt, and navigate to project repo and issue the following command to start the edge session
webdriver-manager start --edge "C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules\protractor\node_modules\webdriver-manager\selenium\MicrosoftWebDriver.exe"
I'm using Angular 9 with Edge 89 within linux
The following config worked for me
exports.config = {
directConnect: true,
chromeDriver: '/path/to/ms-edge/webdriver'
capabilities: {
browserName: 'chrome',
chromeOptions: {
binary: '/usr/bin/microsoft-edge'
}
},
},
Official WebDriver can be found here
Since Edge uses Chromium engine, we can reuse all chrome configs and just replace WebDriver and binary path.
Looks like the Protractor folks are now working on adding Edge support for Protractor. Take a look at the recently opened issue on GitHub.
Download the correct release of EdgeHTML webdriver ( https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/tools/webdriver/ ), then settup the conf.js as:
seleniumArgs: ['-Dwebdriver.edge.driver=C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft Web Driver\\MicrosoftWebDriver.exe'],
Capabilities: {
'browserName': 'MicrosoftEdge',
'maxInstances': 1,
'platformName': 'windows',
'nativeEvents': false,
}
Now Microsoft Edge is supported on Mac Operating System. So to setup in Mac follow below steps
Download the MicrosoftEdge WebDriver from the following link according to version of the edge browser configured in Mac
https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/tools/webdriver/
Unzip the folder and copy the Unix executable file to following path
/usr/local/lib/node_modules/protractor/node_modules/webdriver-manager/selenium/MicrosoftWebDriver
In the config file add SeleniumArgs attribute and capabilities
seleniumArgs : ['-Dwebdriver.edge.driver=/usr/local/lib/node_modules/protractor/node_modules/webdriver-manager/selenium/MicrosoftWebDriver'],
capabilities: {
browserName: 'MicrosoftEdge',
platformName: 'Mac OS X',
browserVersion: '79.0.309.65',
maxInstances: 1,
shardTestFiles: true,
elementScrollBehavior: 1,
nativeEvents: false
},
In order to start the web driver with Edge Session, use below command..
java -jar -Dwebdriver.edge.driver=/usr/local/lib/node_modules/protractor/node_modules/webdriver-manager/selenium/MicrosoftWebDriver /Users//Desktop/Project/node_modules/webdriver-manager/selenium/selenium-server-standalone-3.141.59.jar -port 4444
Edge won't work with directconnect: true. Please refer below example.
directConnect: false,
multiCapabilities: [
{
browserName: 'chrome',
chromeOptions: {
args: ['--disable-popup-blocking'],
}
},
{
browserName: 'firefox'
},
{
browserName: 'MicrosoftEdge'
}
],
jvmArgs: [
'-Dwebdriver.chrome.driver=./src/driver/chromedriver_87.0.4280.20.exe',
`-Dwebdriver.edge.driver=${edgeDriver}`,
'-Dwebdriver.gecko.driver=./src/driver/geckodriver-v0.28.0.exe'
],
Use below code outside config if using mac
const edgeDriver =
process.platform === 'darwin'
? './src/driver/edgedriver_mac64_87.0.664.47/msedgedriver'
: './src/driver/msedgedriver.exe';
Task: Debug other extensions using chrome debugger api.
Expected Output: http request logs made by other installed extensions.
Method: Running chrome webdriver with selenium in python setting flag chromeopts.add_argument('--silent-debugger-extension-api' ). Inside my extension, On event chrome.management.onInstalled using following code
chrome.debugger.attach({ extensionId: info.id }, version, onAttach.bind(null, info.id));

To debug the background page of another extension, you need to set two flags:
--silent-debugger-extension-api
To allow debugging of background pages.
--extensions-on-chrome-urls
To allow debugging of other extensions.
I am trying to use Chrome browser with my Test cases. Same tests work fine with Firefox and PhantomJs.
However , Chrome browser starts but never opens a page.
I have installed
1. Chromdriver : port=9515 version=19.0.1068.0
2. Chrome : Version : 37.0.2062.120 (64-bit)
3. Selenium: Version : 2.42.1
4. RobotFramework : Version : 2.8.5
I think I have Paths variables configured accordingly as well.
google-chrome , starts Chrome
chromedriver , starts chromeDriver
Following line is responsible for starting chrome and opening page.

Can someone point something I am missing ?
Anyother way of debuging the problem ? Any Clue will be good.
Have you put chromedriver in your PATH ?
And do you run the test with current user or with root ?
Selenium needs chromedriver to call chrome, so you can download it from google.com and put it in /usr/bin, or just update your PATH environment variable.
Then, on Debian, root can't (otherwise with errors) call google-chrome browser, so try it with your account.
Hope it helpful.
NODE,
Please re-check your web driver, delete chrome web driver and download new web driver: Here
Check your VARIABLE NAME again! Do NOT use the "-" character to set a variable name like ${MY-URL}! You should change it => ${MY_URL}
You can try to turn of UAC or/and Firewall and try again.
As i know, when you use selenium2library, you don't need to set path to web driver(!?)
Hope it helpful.
I'm trying to use the new Socket API for Chrome extensions, and I'm encountering a confusing error. The manifest for my sample app looks like this:
{
"name":"Yet Another Socket App",
"version":"0.0.1",
"manifest_version":2,
"permissions":[
"experimental", "socket"
],
"app":{
"launch":{
"local_path":"index.html"
}
}
}
The app is loading (i.e., no error alerts), but a warning appears beneath its entry in chrome://extensions: 'socket' is not allowed for specified package type (theme, app, etc.).
Notes: index.html exists and is a simple HTML document (and chrome.socket is indeed undefined within it). I have enabled experimental APIs via chrome://flags. I am running the Dev channel of Chrome (v22.0.1229.6 dev) on Ubuntu.
Is this a momentary hiccup in socket support (this is the Dev channel, after all), or am I setting up my app incorrectly somehow? Also, I had to uninstall Chrome Stable to install Dev; is it possible that apt-get purge google-chrome-stable and rm -rf ~/.config/google-chrome was insufficient to clear out every piece of the Stable channel?
I had the same problem trying to recreate this example from Google:
http://developer.chrome.com/trunk/apps/app_network.html
Chrome always said
Invalid value for 'permissions[1]'
The correct manifest file is available in their sample App:
https://github.com/GoogleChrome/chrome-app-samples/tree/master/udp
After changing permissions in manifest.json to
"permissions": [
"experimental",
{"socket": [
"udp-send-to"
]},
"app.window"
]
I can now access the socket object in Chrome version 23 or higher:
var socket = chrome.socket || chrome.experimental.socket;
