I would like to write an WebExtension to have a blank private browsing page, inspired by an old extension: https://github.com/iPotable/BlankPrivateBrowsingPage
I thought I could use chrome_url_overrides for any chrome page. So I tried:
{
"manifest_version": 2,
"name": "Blank private browsing page",
"chrome_url_overrides" : {
"chrome://browser/content/aboutPrivateBrowsing.xhtml": "index.html"
},
"version": "0.1"
}
But it seems that it can be used only for certain chrome pages, right?
See: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Add-ons/WebExtensions/manifest.json/chrome_url_overrides
A second option that I tried was a UserScript:
// ==UserScript==
// #name Blank aboutPrivateBrowsing page
// #include chrome://browser/content/aboutPrivateBrowsing.xhtml
// ==/UserScript==
window.location.href="about:blank";
But seems that Greasemonkey can not handle chrome URLs.
Can anyone think of another solution?
Currently, you cannot override about:newtab in private mode. However, what you should be able to do inside a WebExtension:
Listen for tab opens of about:privatebrowsing using the tabs API https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Add-ons/WebExtensions/API/tabs/onCreated
Create a new tab using browser.tabs.create({}) (without URL, it will create an empty tab) and close the previous tab (using the tabid).
Then you will have more or less the same.
Code:
function handleUpdated(tabId, changeInfo, tabInfo) {
if(changeInfo.favIconUrl){
//console.log("favIconUrl updated is " + changeInfo.favIconUrl);
if (tabInfo.incognito && changeInfo.favIconUrl.indexOf("privatebrowsing") > -1){
//console.log("opening about:blank..");
browser.tabs.update({url: "about:blank"});
}
}
}
browser.tabs.onUpdated.addListener(handleUpdated);
The code above sadly gives a noticable graphical glitch. Instead of favIconUrl you can probably use tab.title == "New Tab" as well (but that will only work for English versions of Firefox).

I am using the ReportViewer in my WPF application and I am trying to get a custom protocol to work with the application. So I get the ability to open sub-programs inside my application when a url is clicked inside the ReportViewer.
When I click on the custom-protocol-url (inside the ReportViewer) nothing happens.
When I open the same report via the Web-Browser, my URL works flawlessly.
It seems like the ReportViewer doesn't allow custom protocols? Has anyone experienced that aswell? Is there any documentation on that?
http, https and mailto are working in the ReportViewer.
I am just adding an Action in the Report pointing to my url
customurl://123
Url definition:
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\customurl]
#="URL: customurl Protocol"
"URL Protocol"=""
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\customurl\shell]
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\customurl\shell\open]
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\customurl\shell\open\command]
#="\"C:\\Extra Programme\\TestAlert.exe\" \"%1\""
Testalert (just the test-program by microsoft):
static string ProcessInput(string s)
{
// TODO Verify and validate the input
// string as appropriate for your application.
return s;
}
static void Main(string[] args)
{
Console.WriteLine("Alert.exe invoked with the following parameters.\r\n");
Console.WriteLine("Raw command-line: \n\t" + Environment.CommandLine);
Console.WriteLine("\n\nArguments:\n");
foreach (string s in args)
{
Console.WriteLine("\t" + ProcessInput(s));
}
Console.WriteLine("\nPress any key to continue...");
Console.ReadKey();
}
I have looked into the code of ReportViewer and found an if statement, that checks if the url starts with either http:// or https:// or mailto:.
It gets this information with Uri.UriSchemeHttp, Uri.UriSchemeHttps and Uri.UriSchemeMailto
So you could overwrite eg. Uri.UriSchemeHttp with "customurl" (if your url is customurl://123) before rendering the report.
var field = typeof(Uri).GetField("UriSchemeHttp");
field.SetValue(null, "customurl");
The more elegant solution would be, to use a webbrowser control and just show the SSRS Web-Page
I'm using Behat 3 and PhantomJS 2. Currently I have a scenario defined as such:
#javascript
Scenario: I visit the blog through the Blog & Events menu.
Given I am an anonymous user
And I am on the homepage
And I follow "Link Text"
Then I should be on "/path-to-page"
When I run this with Goutte it's fine. When I run this with vanilla Selenium, it's fine (it launches a browser I can see). However, when I configure Selenium to point the webdriver host to PhantomJS, it explodes on Then I should be on "/path-to-page" claiming it's still on /.
If I add the following wait step:
#javascript
Scenario: I visit the blog through the Blog & Events menu.
Given I am an anonymous user
And I am on the homepage
And I follow "Link Text"
And I wait 4 seconds
Then I should be on "/path-to-page"
Then my scenario passes in the green, all good.
Is there a way to get PhantomJS to wait for the page to load before checking the current path? I don't want to depend on arbitrary timeouts. I need a headless solution and PhantomJS seems to be pretty well supported, but if I can't do something as simple as clicking a link and verifying the page that was loaded without adding random waiting steps everywhere, I might need to re-evaluate my decision.
Try using this implicit wait in your feature context. In my experience it has helped.
/**
* #BeforeStep
*/
public function implicitlyWait($event)
{
// Set up implicit timeouts
$driver = $this->getSession()->getDriver()->getWebDriverSession();
$driver->timeouts()->implicit_wait(array("ms" => 10000));
}
I was having the same issue, and doing something like this fails because its using the state of the current url:
$this->getSession()->wait(10000, "document.readyState === 'complete'");
So my workaround for this was adding a variable to the page every time a step is done. When I link is clicked, the variable will no long exist, this will guarantee that am working with a different page.
/**
* #AfterStep
*/
public function setStepStatus()
{
$this->getSession()->evaluateScript('window.behatStepHasCompleted = true;');
}
/**
* #When /^(?:|I )wait for the page to be loaded$/
*/
public function waitForThePageToBeLoaded()
{
$this->getSession()->wait(10000, "!window.behatStepHasCompleted && document.readyState === 'complete'");
}
You can always make use of a closure function to encapsule your steps, just as mentioned in the docs. Through it, you can get your steps to run when they're ready. Let's implement a spinner function:
public function spinner($closure, $secs) {
for ($i = 0; $i <= $secs; $i++) {
try {
$closure();
return;
}
catch (Exception $e) {
if ($i == $secs) {
throw $e;
}
}
sleep(1);
}
}
What we're doing here is wait for a number of seconds for the closure function to run successfully. When the time's run out, throw an exception, for we want to know when something's not behaving correctly.
Now let's wrap your function to assert you're in the right page within the spinner:
public function iShouldBeOnPage($wantedUrl) {
$this->spinner(function() use($wantedUrl) {
$currentUrl = $this->getSession()->getCurrentUrl();
if ($currentUrl == $wantedUrl) {
return;
}
else {
throw new Exception("url is $currentUrl, not $wantedUrl");
}
}, 30);
What we're doing here is wait up to 30 seconds to be on the url we want to be after clicking the button. It will not wait for 30 secs, but for as many secs we need until current url is the url we need to be at. Applying it in your function within the *Context.php will result in it being applied in every step you call it within your Gherkin files.
I have a scenario like when I click on a link it opened in new tab. Using Selenium WebDriver how can we handle it.
As per my knowledge we can't switch to new tab but when I search in Web, got some below solutions.
ArrayList<String> tabs2 = new ArrayList<String> (driver.getWindowHandles());
driver.switchTo().window(tabs2.get(1));
driver.close();
driver.switchTo().window(tabs2.get(0));
Unfortunately, every given solution contains driver.getWindowhandles(). But AFAIK even when a browser has multiple tabs it always returns only one handle.
My scenario is, when I click on one button it opens in new tab.Could any one please provide some solution to
Switch between Tabs or
How to open that tab in new window.
When your new tab has opened,then after that you are in any certain tab of the window.Now, you can use keys.chord(keys.ctrl,keys.tab) for switching between tabs. By using keys, we can take the keyboard i/p.
Write a method to switch the handle of a driver to a new window/tab based on the windows title:
public void SwitchHandleToNewWindow(IWebdriver driver, string windowTitle)
{
ReadOnlyCollection<string> handles = driver.WindowHandles;
foreach(string handle in handles)
{
driver.SwitchTo().Window(handle);
if(driver.Title.Contains(windowTitle))
{
return;
}
}
}
The code is straight forward, so implementation is straightforward too. If you want to switch to a new tab then you do something like : SwitchHandleToNewWindow(driver,"Test Page")
I am new to selenium. Actually I am working on some cookie validation project, which requires me to manually check the cookies present before and after clicking on some consent link in multiple browsers (Firefox, ie, chrome, safari).
Previously in the phase 1 project I ran a qtp script to treat the firefox as a window object and capture screenshots, but that is quite troublesome if the resolution changes or any minor look-n-feel changes. Also it is quite difficult to manage and it works on firefox only and I needed to write the same script again for chrome and safari. Apart from this since QTP is licensed product and currently we are using seat license so I can't run it on multiple machines to speed up execution.
So I thought moving to Selenium. As of now my requirement is:
1. open the page - take the screenshot once page loaded.
2. check the cookies using firebug or any other way - take the screenshot
3. click the link to close the consent - take screenshot once consent closed.
4. refresh the page and again check the cookies using firebug - take screenshot
So I done some research on selenium and found that I can validate the cookies using verifyCookie but still I need screenshot of firebug window for cookies. So I got stuck here.
please help me out here..
I found some possible way to do this on Firefox but now I was looking forward for something similar for Chrome if that possible. Thanks
Selenium cannot interact with firefox extensions, or the browser in the way you want it to.
What you can do is collect a list of cookies on the page by doing:
driver.manage().getCookies()
This will give you a list of all cookies that are visible to Selenium. Please note that this is the same as the cookies that are visible in the JavaScript console (Not all cookies are visible via JavaScript, for example cookies set with the HTTPOnly attribute) using:
document.cookie
I would suggest you use getCookies() to programatically validate the cookies.
In selenium IDE if you want to take screenshot of the page use captureEntirePageScreenshot command
captureEntirePageScreenshot | D:\\test.png |
D:\\test.png - path of file where you want to save the file
Got some solution

might be useful.
I have a link on my app UI that launches a URL using System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(). If the user clicks the link several times, it opens several tabs.
Is there a way, maybe a command-line option, to still use the default web browser, but have it just reopen the same tab if the URL is already open? It would be OK if it doesn't work with every possible browser out there, but nice if it at least works with IE, Firefox and Chrome.
I doubt it, but since I didn't see any other questions/answers on this topic, I figured I'd ask.
This is somewhat of a workaround but it might get you started. I have used the System.Diagnostics.Process.ProcessId.
As an example I have used IE, I will explain later why I did this. The code is just "quick and dirty" but I just made it as proof of concept.
I have created a basic WinForm app with one button that will open google in IE, if it has already been opened by the application it will not be opened again.
I added the System.Diagnostics reference.
public int ProcessID;
public Form1()
{
InitializeComponent();
}
private void MyButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (ProcessID == null)
{
StartIE();
}
else
{
if (!ProcessIsRunning())
{
StartIE();
}
}
}
private bool ProcessIsRunning()
{
bool ProcessRunning = false;
foreach (Process p in Process.GetProcesses())
{
try
{
if (p.Id == ProcessID)
{
ProcessRunning = true;
}
}
catch { }
}
return ProcessRunning;
}
private void StartIE()
{
System.Diagnostics.Process proc = new System.Diagnostics.Process();
proc.StartInfo.FileName = "iexplore.exe";
proc.StartInfo.Arguments = "http://www.google.be";
proc.Start();
ProcessID = proc.Id;
}
This does not completely do what you requested but it might be a good start. There are a few reasons why I did it this way and what possible options are..
If you would use the url as the Filename, it would indeed open up the webpage in the default browser, it would however not return a processID. This is why the snippet shows usage of IE. (If you would use this option, you could use the System.IO.File.Exists to make sure the desired browser is installed)
If you would like to use this option, you can query the registry to pick up what te default browser is, if you have that you could launch that from the value obtained from the registry. If you then change the process.startinfo.filename to this value, then you will launch the default browser but you will still obtain a processId so this might be the way forward. You can check how to do this over here: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en/netfxbcl/thread/b200903e-ce69-4bd4-a436-3e20a7632dc4
Showing the internet window if it would already be opened, can be done by using the SetForegroundWindow property. As this is already documented in this article, I did not add it in this snippet.
I hope this helps to get you on your way.
