Info

The project practices Java Selenium 4.0.x release ChromiumDriver to execute the Chrome DevTools Protocol a.k.a. cdp commands - an entirely different set of API communicated to the Chrome browser family via POST requests to /session/$sessionId/goog/cdp/execute with API-specific payload) feature (many of the cdp methods e.g. the DOM ones like

  • performSearch,
  • getSearchResults
  • getNodeForLocation
  • getOuterHTML
  • querySelectorAll
  • querySelector
  • getAttributes

overlap with classic Selenium in Classic Javascript and there are few specific ones like:

  • addCustomHeaders
  • getFrameTree
  • setGeolocationOverride
  • setDownloadBehavior

to name a few, and various event listeners

This functionality is named in official Selenium Developer Documentation as BiDirectional functionality and BiDi API

The project also exercised other new Selenium 4 API e.g. relative nearby locators whidh did not apear powerful enough yet.

For accessing the Chrome Devtools API with Selenium driver 3.x see cdp_webdriver project

Examples

Async Code Execution by XHR Fetch events in the Browser

xhr_test_capture.png

This test is opening Wikipedia page and hovers over few links using "classic" Selenium Actions class:

driver.findElement(By.id("mw-content-text")).findElements(By.tagName("a")).stream().forEach( (WebElement element ) -> {
    new Actions(driver).moveToElement(element).build().perform();
  }
}

To emphacise that the lambda operates "classic" object,the WebElement type was entered explicitly.

In the @Before -annotated method in the test class, the Fetch API is enabled for all requests

@Before
public void beforeTest() throws Exception {
chromeDevTools = ((HasDevTools) driver).getDevTools();

List<RequestPattern> reqPattern = new ArrayList<>();
reqPattern.add(new RequestPattern(Optional.of("*"), Optional.of(ResourceType.XHR), Optional.of(RequestStage.RESPONSE)));
chromeDevTools.send(Fetch.enable(Optional.of(reqPattern), Optional.of(false)));

(If necessary one can limit to subset of reuests via match pattern). Then in the test method callback is set up:

@Test
public void test() {
	chromeDevTools.addListener(Fetch.requestPaused(),
		(RequestPaused event) -> {
      event.getResponseHeaders().get().stream().map((HeaderEntry entry) -> String.format("%s: %s",
              entry.getName(), entry.getValue())).collect(Collectors.toList());
      Fetch.GetResponseBodyResponse response = chromeDevTools.send(Fetch.getResponseBody(event.getRequestId()));
        String body = new String(Base64.decodeBase64(response.getBody().getBytes("UTF8")));
	System.err.println("response body:\n" + body);
      }
});
// he mouse hover actions to follow

This allows capture every Ajax request response headers,

List<HeaderEntry> headerEntries = event.getResponseHeaders().isPresent() ? event.getResponseHeaders().get() : new ArrayList<>();
List<String> headers = headerEntries.stream().map(entry -> String.format("%s: %s", entry.getName(), entry.getValue())) .collect(Collectors.toList());

along with response status

event.getResponseStatusCode().get()

and body which is usually a base64 encoded JSON with multiple details, processed by browser xhr_logged_capture.png

Fetch.GetResponseBodyResponse response = chromeDevTools.send(Fetch.getResponseBody(event.getRequestId()));
String body = null;
if (response.getBase64Encoded()) {
	try {
		body = new String( Base64.decodeBase64(response.getBody().getBytes("UTF8")));
	} catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e) {
		System.err.println("Exception (ignored): " + e.toString());
	}
} else {
	body = response.getBody();
}

finally the test continues default processing of the request:

chromeDevTools.send(Fetch.continueRequest(
	event.getRequestId(),
	Optional.empty(),
	Optional.empty(),
	Optional.empty(),
	Optional.empty(),
	Optional.empty()));
  • the arguments to the Java adapter method match the Javascript Fetch.continueResponse parameter definition:
requestId
RequestId
An id the client received in requestPaused event.
responseCode
integer
An HTTP response code. If absent, original response code will be used.
responsePhrase
string
A textual representation of responseCode. If absent, a standard phrase matching responseCode is used.
responseHeaders
array[ HeaderEntry ]
Response headers. If absent, original response headers will be used.
binaryResponseHeaders
string
Alternative way of specifying response headers as a \0-separated series of name: value pairs. Prefer the above method unless you need to represent some non-UTF8 values that can't be transmitted over the protocol as text. (Encoded as a base64 string when passed over JSON)

Access Browser Console Logs

Browser console logs may accessed asynchronuosly in asimilar fashion:

@Before
public void beforeTest() throws Exception {
	chromeDevTools.send(Log.enable());
	chromeDevTools.addListener(Log.entryAdded(),
		(LogEntry event) -> System.err.println(
			String.format( "time stamp: %s line number: %s url: \"%s\" text: %s",
	formatTimestamp(event.getTimestamp()),
	(event.getLineNumber().isPresent() ? event.getLineNumber().get() : ""),
	(event.getUrl().isPresent() ? event.getUrl().get() : ""),
	event.getText())));
}

The properties of the event are taken from Log entry object specification One can also confirm the logging event to have expected properties, e.g. message:

@Test
public void test() {
	final String consoleMessage = "Lorem ipsum";
	chromeDevTools.addListener(Log.entryAdded(),
		(LogEntry event) -> assertThat(event.getText(), containsString(consoleMessage)));
	if (driver instanceof JavascriptExecutor) {
		JavascriptExecutor executor = JavascriptExecutor.class.cast(driver);		
		executor.executeScript("console.log(arguments[0]);", consoleMessage);
	}
}

Print to PDF

This API uses CDP command:

public void test1() {
	PrintToPDFResponse response;
	boolean landscape = false;
	boolean displayHeaderFooter = false;
	boolean printBackground = false;
	Page.PrintToPDFTransferMode transferMode = Page.PrintToPDFTransferMode.RETURNASBASE64;
	int scale = 1;

	// Act
	response = chromeDevTools.send(Page.printToPDF(
	Optional.of(landscape),
	Optional.of(displayHeaderFooter),
	Optional.of(printBackground),
	Optional.of(scale),
	Optional.empty(),
	Optional.empty(),
	Optional.empty(),
	Optional.empty(),
	Optional.empty(),
	Optional.empty(),
	Optional.empty(),
	Optional.empty(),
	Optional.empty(),
	Optional.empty(),
	Optional.empty(),
	Optional.of(transferMode)));
	assertThat(response, notNullValue());
	String body = new String(Base64.decodeBase64(response.getData().getBytes("UTF8")));
	assertThat(body, notNullValue());
	String magic = body.substring(0, 9);
	assertThat(magic, containsString("%PDF"));

the browser needs to run headless mode for the call to succeed the alternative call signature is

response = chromeDevTools.send(new Command<PrintToPDFResponse>("Page.printToPDF", ImmutableMap.of("landscape", landscape), o -> o.read(PrintToPDFResponse.class)));
assertThat(response, notNullValue());

for some calls (but not specifically for Page.printToPDF) yet anoher alternavie signature via static method exists

response = chromeDevTools.send(new Command<PrintToPDFResponse>("Page.printToPDF", ImmutableMap.of("landscape", landscape), ConverterFunctions.map("data", PrintToPDFResponse.class)));

Zoom the Browser window

in additon to legacy-like keyboard zoom, the CDP supports Page.setDeviceMetricsOverride method and Emulation.setDeviceMetricsOverride method:

  @Before
  public void before() throws Exception {
    baseURL = "https://www.wikipedia.org";
    driver.get(baseURL);
  }

  @Test
  public void test1() {
    for (int cnt = 0; cnt != deviceScaleFactors.length; cnt++) {
      double deviceScaleFactor = deviceScaleFactors[cnt];
      screenshotFileName = String.format("test1_%03d.jpg",
          (int) (100 * deviceScaleFactor));
      layoutMetrics = chromeDevTools.send(Page.getLayoutMetrics());
      rect = layoutMetrics.getContentSize();
      width = rect.getWidth().intValue();
      height = rect.getHeight().intValue();
      System.err.println(String.format("Content size: %dx%d", width, height));
      chromeDevTools.send(
        // @formatter:off
        Emulation.setDeviceMetricsOverride(
          rect.getWidth().intValue(),
          rect.getHeight().intValue(),
          deviceScaleFactor,
          false,
          Optional.empty(),
          Optional.empty(),
          Optional.empty(),
          Optional.empty(),
          Optional.empty(),
          Optional.empty(),
          Optional.empty(),
          Optional.empty(),
          Optional.empty()
        )
        // @formatter:on
      );
      String dataString = chromeDevTools.send(
        // @formatter:off
        Page.captureScreenshot(
            Optional.of(Page.CaptureScreenshotFormat.JPEG),
            Optional.of(100),
            Optional.empty(),
            Optional.of(true),
            Optional.of(true)
        )
        // @formatter:off
    );
    chromeDevTools.send(Emulation.clearDeviceMetricsOverride());

    byte[] image = base64.decode(dataString);
    try {
      BufferedImage o = ImageIO.read(new ByteArrayInputStream(image));
      System.err.println(String.format("Screenshot dimensions: %dx%d",
          o.getWidth(), o.getHeight()));
      assertThat((int) (width * deviceScaleFactor) - o.getWidth(),
          not(greaterThan(2)));
      assertThat((int) (height * deviceScaleFactor) - o.getHeight(),
          not(greaterThan(2)));
    } catch (IOException e) {
      System.err.println("Exception loading image (ignored): " + e.toString());
    }
    try {
      FileOutputStream fileOutputStream = new FileOutputStream(
          screenshotFileName);
      fileOutputStream.write(image);
      fileOutputStream.close();
    } catch (IOException e) {
      System.err.println("Exception saving image (ignored): " + e.toString());
    }
    }
  }


@After
public void clearPage() {
  chromeDevTools.send(CSS.disable());
  try {
    chromeDevTools.send(DOM.disable());
  } catch (DevToolsException e) {
    // DOM agent hasn't been enabled
  }
  driver.get("about:blank");
}

this test gets gradually magnified out page screen shots:

capture-multi-zoom.png

alternatively use CDP commands for the same:

  @SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
  @Test
  public void test() {
    // Assert
    params = new HashMap<>();
    for (int cnt = 0; cnt != deviceScaleFactors.length; cnt++) {
      double deviceScaleFactor = deviceScaleFactors[cnt];
      filename = String.format("test2_%03d.jpg",
          (int) (100 * deviceScaleFactor));

      try {
        command = "Page.getLayoutMetrics";
        result = driver.executeCdpCommand(command, new HashMap<>());
        System.err
            .println("Page.getLayoutMetrics: " + result.get("contentSize"));
        rect = (Map<String, Long>) result.get("contentSize");
        height = rect.get("height");
        width = rect.get("width");
        command = "Emulation.setDeviceMetricsOverride";
        // Act
        System.err.println(String.format("Scaling to %02d%% %s",
            (int) (100 * deviceScaleFactor), filename));
        params.clear();
        params.put("deviceScaleFactor", deviceScaleFactor);
        params.put("width", width);
        params.put("height", height);
        params.put("mobile", false);
        params.put("scale", 1);
        driver.executeCdpCommand(command, params);

        Utils.sleep(delay);
        command = "Page.captureScreenshot";
        // Act
        result = driver.executeCdpCommand(command,
            new HashMap<String, Object>());

        command = "Emulation.clearDeviceMetricsOverride";
        driver.executeCdpCommand(command, new HashMap<String, Object>());

        // Assert
        assertThat(result, notNullValue());
        assertThat(result, hasKey("data"));
        dataString = (String) result.get("data");
        assertThat(dataString, notNullValue());

        byte[] image = base64.decode(dataString);
        BufferedImage o = ImageIO.read(new ByteArrayInputStream(image));
        assertThat(o.getWidth(), greaterThan(0));
        assertThat(o.getHeight(), greaterThan(0));
        FileOutputStream fileOutputStream = new FileOutputStream(filename);
        fileOutputStream.write(image);
        fileOutputStream.close();
      } catch (IOException e) {
        System.err.println("Exception saving image (ignored): " + e.toString());
      } catch (JsonSyntaxException e) {
        System.err.println("JSON Syntax exception in " + command
            + " (ignored): " + e.toString());
      } catch (WebDriverException e) {
        // willbe thrown if the required arguments are not provided.
        // TODO: add failing test
        System.err.println(
            "Web Driver exception in " + command + " (ignored): " + Utils
                .processExceptionMessage(e.getMessage() + "  " + e.toString()));
      } catch (Exception e) {
        System.err.println("Exception in " + command + "  " + e.toString());
        throw (new RuntimeException(e));
      }
    }
  }

Filter URL

xhr_logged_capture.png Bandwidth improving filtering of certain mask URLs

chromeDevTools.send(Network.enable(Optional.of(100000000), Optional.empty(), Optional.empty()));
chromeDevTools.send(Network.setBlockedURLs(ImmutableList.of("*.css", "*.png", "*.jpg", "*.gif", "*favicon.ico")));
driver.get("http://arngren.net");

one can also log the *.css, *.jpg *.png and *.ico blocking in action:

// verify that
chromeDevTools.addListener(Network.loadingFailed(),
	(LoadingFailed event) -> {
		ResourceType resourceType = event.getType();
		if (resourceType.equals(ResourceType.STYLESHEET)
				|| resourceType.equals(ResourceType.IMAGE)
				|| resourceType.equals(ResourceType.OTHER)) {
			Optional<BlockedReason> blockedReason = event.getBlockedReason();
			assertThat(blockedReason.isPresent(), is(true));
			assertThat(blockedReason.get(), is(BlockedReason.INSPECTOR));
		}
	System.err.println("Blocked event: " + event.getType());
});

finally one can disable filtering:

// set request interception only for css requests
RequestPattern requestPattern = new RequestPattern(Optional.of("*.gif"), Optional.of(ResourceType.IMAGE), Optional.of(InterceptionStage.HEADERSRECEIVED));
chromeDevTools.send(Network.setRequestInterception(ImmutableList.of(requestPattern)));
chromeDevTools.send(Page.navigate(baseURL, Optional.empty(),Optional.empty(), Optional.empty(), Optional.empty()));

Override User Agent

One can call cdp protocol to invoke setUserAgentOverride method and dynmically modify the user-agent header during the test:

  import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;
  import org.openqa.selenium.chromium.ChromiumDriver;

  ChromiumDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();
  driver.get("https://www.whoishostingthis.com/tools/user-agent/");
  By locator = By.cssSelector(".user-agent");
  WebElement element = driver.findElement(locato);
  assertThat(element.getAttribute("innerText"), containsString("Mozilla"));
  Map<String, Object> params = new HashMap<String, Object>();
  params.put("userAgent", "python 2.7");
  params.put("platform", "Windows");
  driver.executeCdpCommand("Network.setUserAgentOverride", params);
  driver.navigate().refresh();
  sleep(100);

  element = driver.findElement(locator);
  assertThat(element.isDisplayed(), is(true));
  assertThat(element.getAttribute("innerText"), is("python 2.7"));

demonstrates that the user-agent is indeed changing

Cookies

The example shows alternative API to collect the cookies available to page Javascript

  Map<String, Object> result = driver.executeCdpCommand("Page.getCookies", new HashMap<String, Object>());
  ArrayList<Map<String, Object>> cookies = (ArrayList<Map<String, Object>>) result.get("cookies");
  cookies.stream().limit(100).map(o -> o.keySet()).forEach(System.err::println);

Capture Screenshot

  String result = driver.executeCdpCommand("Page.captureScreenshot", new HashMap<>());
  String data = (String) result.get("data");
  byte[] image = new (Base64()).decode(data);
  assertThat(ImageIO.read(new ByteArrayInputStream(image)).getWidth(), greaterThan(0));
  (new FileOutputStream("temp.png")).write(image);

Capture Element Screenshot

implements the clipping to viewport functioality

command = "Page.captureScreenshot";
params = new HashMap<String, Object>();
Map<String, Object> viewport = new HashMap<>();
System.err.println("Specified viewport: " + String
    .format("x=%d, y=%d, width=%d, height=%d", x, y, width, height));
viewport.put("x", (double) x);
viewport.put("y", (double) y);
viewport.put("width", (double) width);
viewport.put("height", (double) height);
viewport.put("scale", scale);
params.put("clip", viewport);
result = driver.executeCdpCommand(command, params);
dataString = (String) result.get("data");
assertThat(dataString, notNullValue());
Base64 base64 = new Base64();
byte[] image = base64.decode(dataString);
String screenshotFileName = String.format("card%02d.png", cnt);
FileOutputStream fileOutputStream = new FileOutputStream( screenshotFileName);
fileOutputStream.write(image);
fileOutputStream.close();

Note: some CDP API notably Page.printToPDF are not curently implemented:

unhandled inspector error: {"code":-32000,"message":"PrintToPDF is not implemented"}(..)

Custom Headers

This can be done both at the wrapper methods

    // enable Network
    chromeDevTools.send(Network.enable(Optional.empty(), Optional.empty(), Optional.empty()));
    headers = new HashMap<>();
    headers.put("customHeaderName", "customHeaderValue");
    Headers headersData = new Headers(headers);
    chromeDevTools.send(Network.setExtraHTTPHeaders(headersData));

The validation can be done through hooking assert and log message to the event:

    // add event listener to log that requests are sending with the custom header
    chromeDevTools.addListener(Network.requestWillBeSent(),
        o -> Assert.assertEquals(o.getRequest().getHeaders().get("customHeaderName"), "customHeaderValue"));
    chromeDevTools.addListener(Network.requestWillBeSent(), o -> System.err.println(
        "addCustomHeaders Listener invoked with " + o.getRequest().getHeaders().get("customHeaderName")));

and low level "commands":

    String command = "Network.enable";
    params = new HashMap<>();
    params.put("maxTotalBufferSize", 0);
    params.put("maxPostDataSize", 0);
    params.put("maxPostDataSize", 0);
    result = driver.executeCdpCommand(command, params);
    command = "Network.setExtraHTTPHeaders";

    params = new HashMap<>();
    Map<String, String> headers = new HashMap<>();
    headers.put("customHeaderName", this.getClass().getName() + " addCustomHeadersTest");
    params.put("headers", headers);
    result = driver.executeCdpCommand(command, params);

To test one can e.g. fire a tomcat server with request header logging and send the GET request

driver.get("http://127.0.0.1:8080/demo/Demo");

The actual validation will be done through console logs inspection of the server

DOM Node Navigation

The following somewhat long test exercises steps one has to perform with CDP to get a specific DOM Node focused and act upon:

It appears every node search starts with getting the document:

	@SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
	@Test
	public void getDocumentTest() {
		// Arrange
		driver.get("https://www.google.com");
		String command = "DOM.getDocument";
		try {
			// Act
			result = driver.executeCdpCommand(command, new HashMap<>());
			// Assert
			assertThat(result, hasKey("root"));
			Map<String, Object> data =  (Map<String, Object>) result.get("root");
			assertThat(data, hasKey("nodeId"));
			assertTrue(Long.parseLong(data.get("nodeId").toString()) != 0);
			err.println("Command " + command + " return node: "
					+ new Gson().toJson(data, Map.class));
		} catch (org.openqa.selenium.WebDriverException e) {
			err.println(
					"Exception in command " + command + " (ignored): " + e.toString());
		}
	}

This test logs:

Command DOM.getDocument return node:
{
  "backendNodeId": 1,
  "baseURL": "https://www.google.com/",
  "childNodeCount": 2,
  "children": [
    {
      "backendNodeId": 2,
      "localName": "",
      "nodeId": 10,
      "nodeName": "html",
      "nodeType": 10,
      "nodeValue": "",
      "parentId": 9,
      "publicId": "",
      "systemId": ""
    },
    {
      "attributes": [
        "itemscope",
        "",
        "itemtype",
        "http://schema.org/WebPage",
        "lang",
        "en"
      ],
      "backendNodeId": 3,
      "childNodeCount": 2,
      "children": [
        {
          "attributes": [],
          "backendNodeId": 21,
          "childNodeCount": 12,
          "localName": "head",
          "nodeId": 12,
          "nodeName": "HEAD",
          "nodeType": 1,
          "nodeValue": "",
          "parentId": 11
        },
        {
          "attributes": [
            "jsmodel",
            " ",
            "class",
            "hp vasq",
            "id",
            "gsr"
          ],
          "backendNodeId": 22,
          "childNodeCount": 8,
          "localName": "body",
          "nodeId": 13,
          "nodeName": "BODY",
          "nodeType": 1,
          "nodeValue": "",
          "parentId": 11
        }
      ],
      "frameId": "C3CE739B971DD10AFECA84F6C1554308",
      "localName": "html",
      "nodeId": 11,
      "nodeName": "HTML",
      "nodeType": 1,
      "nodeValue": "",
      "parentId": 9
    }
  ],
  "documentURL": "https://www.google.com/",
  "localName": "",
  "nodeId": 9,
  "nodeName": "#document",
  "nodeType": 9,
  "nodeValue": "",
  "xmlVersion": ""
}

now one can

		command = "DOM.querySelector";
		params.clear();
		params.put("nodeId", nodeId);
		params.put("selector", "img#hplogo");

		try {
			result = driver.executeCdpCommand(command, params);
			assertThat(result, hasKey("nodeId"));
			nodeId = (Long) result.get("nodeId");
			assertTrue(nodeId != 0);
			err.println("Command " + command + " returned  nodeId: " + nodeId);
		} catch (org.openqa.selenium.WebDriverException e) {
			err.println(
					"Exception in command " + command + " (ignored): " + e.toString());
		}
		command = "DOM.getOuterHTML";
		params.clear();
		params.put("nodeId", nodeId);
		
		try {
			result = driver.executeCdpCommand(command, params);
			assertThat(result, notNullValue());
			assertThat(result, hasKey("outerHTML"));
			String dataString = (String) result.get("outerHTML");
			assertThat(dataString, notNullValue());
			err.println("Command " + command + " return outerHTML: " + dataString);
		} catch (Exception e) {
			err.println("Exception in " + command + " (ignored): " + e.toString());
		}
	}

This will log:

Command DOM.querySelector returned  nodeId: 162
Command DOM.getOuterHTML return outerHTML:
<img alt="Google" height="92" id="hplogo"  src="/images/branding/googlelogo/2x/googlelogo_color_272x92dp.png"  style="padding-top:109px" width="272" onload="typeof google==='object'&amp;&amp;google.aft&amp;&amp;google.aft(this)" data-iml="1576602836994" data-atf="1">

collapsing multiple command calls together will lead to somewhat bloated test method

	@Test
	public void multiCommandTest() {
		// Arrange
		baseURL = "https://www.google.com";
		driver.get(baseURL);
		String command = "DOM.getDocument";
		try {
			// Act
			result = driver.executeCdpCommand(command, new HashMap<>());
			// Assert

Selenum release dependency

The selenium-chromium-driver that is only available for Selenum release 4 is the critical dependency jar of this project. The selenium-chromium-driver repository search page.

The devtools and chromium subprojects of selenium client of official seleniumhq/selenium project have no dependencies and can be cloned and built locally allowing one to use CDP API with Selenium 3.x e.g. Selenium 3.13.0. This is currently attempted this way in this project. Moving away form default 4.0.0.alpha maven profiles is a work in progress.

Breaking Changes in Selenium 4.0.0-alpha-7

With Selenium driver release 4.0.0-alpha-7 just to make the project compile changes imported package names need to change all org.openqa.selenium.devtools.browser references with org.openqa.selenium.devtools.v87.browser and similar to other packages inside org.openqa.selenium.devtools were requied. Without this multiple compile errors like:

package org.openqa.selenium.devtools.browser does not exist

are observed

Also the following run time errors indicate that selenium-api-4.0.0-alpha-7.jar was build on JDK 11 and is notloadable in JDK 8.

This manifests through the runtime exception

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Could not initialize class org.openqa.selenium.net.PortProber
  at org.openqa.selenium.remote.service.DriverService$Builder.build(DriverService.java:401)
  at org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriverService.createServiceWithConfig(ChromeDriverService.java:133)

the usual classpath scan reveals the jar containing the class in question, to be actually present in classpath

find ~/.m2/repository/ -iname 'selenium*jar' |xargs -IX sh -c "echo X; jar tvf X" | tee a

and method signature exception

java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: java.io.FileReader.<init>(Ljava/io/File;Ljava/nio/charset/Charset;)V
  at org.openqa.selenium.net.LinuxEphemeralPortRangeDetector.getInstance(LinuxEphemeralPortRangeDetector.java:36)
  at org.openqa.selenium.net.PortProber.<clinit>(PortProber.java:42)

the method the exception is complainign was added in Java 11

  • when Chromium browser installed via apt, from
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:system76/pop
sudo apt update
sudo apt install -y -q chromium

the tests would work but the browser is quite old version 83.

The latest available version of chromium-broser on http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/c/chromium-browser/ is 112

NOTE: will have to download a few packages to be able to install chromium-browser:

  • chromium-browser_112.0.5615.49-0ubuntu0.18.04.1_amd64.deb
  • chromium-browser-l10n_112.0.5615.49-0ubuntu0.18.04.1_all.deb
  • chromium-codecs-ffmpeg_112.0.5615.49-0ubuntu0.18.04.1_amd64.deb
  • chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extra_112.0.5615.49-0ubuntu0.18.04.1_amd64.deb

and install them in specific order:

dpkg -i chromium-codecs-ffmpeg_112.0.5615.49-0ubuntu0.18.04.1_amd64.deb
dpkg -i chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extra_112.0.5615.49-0ubuntu0.18.04.1_amd64.deb
dpkg -i chromium-browser_112.0.5615.49-0ubuntu0.18.04.1_amd64.deb

[ERROR] bad class file: .m2\repository\org\seleniumhq\selenium\selenium-api\4.14.0\selenium-api-4.14.0.jar
[ERROR] class file has wrong version 55.0, should be 52.0

Current browser version is 121.0.6167.85 with binary path /opt/google/chrome/chrome

make sure to have the google repository added:

echo "deb [arch=amd64] http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/ stable main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google-chrome.list

and the error is cleared:

Debugging File Upload

A textbook File Upload Form looks like below

file upload page

<html>
<head>
<title>File Upload Test</title>
</head>

<body>
<h1>File Upload Test</h1>
<form enctype = "multipart/form-data" action="upload endpoint url" method="POST">
upload file path: <input name="upload file path" type="file">
<input type="submit" value="send file">
</form>
</body>

The requirements for plain browser-driven file upload HTML page are:

  • form must specify the POST method
  • form must specify an enctype of multipart/form-data
  • form must contain an <input type="file"> element

To examine the upload request genetated by the browser, subscribe to `` event:

Map<String, Map<String, Object>> requests = new HashMap<>();
chromeDevTools.send(Network.enable(Optional.empty(), Optional.empty(), Optional.empty()));
chromeDevTools.addListener(Network.requestWillBeSent(),
  (RequestWillBeSent event) ->
    requests.put(event.getRequest().getUrl(), event.getRequest().getHeaders().toJson())
);

and perform the upload:

wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, Duration.ofSeconds(flexibleWait));
wait.pollingEvery(Duration.ofMillis(pollingInterval));
actions = new Actions(driver);
url = "https://ps.uci.edu/~franklin/doc/file_upload.html";
driver.get(url);
element = wait.until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOfElementLocated(By.cssSelector("input[name='userfile']")));

assertThat(element.isDisplayed(), is(true));
Utils.highlight(element);
element.sendKeys(dummy.getAbsolutePath());

element = driver.findElement(By.tagName("form"));
assertThat(element, notNullValue());
assertThat(element.getAttribute("action"), notNullValue());
url2 = element.getAttribute("action");

element = driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("input[type='submit']"));
assertThat(element, notNullValue());
Utils.highlight(element);
requests.clear();
element.submit();
try {
  Thread.sleep(1000);
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
  e.printStackTrace();
}

System.err.println("Captured: ");
