Freebox Proxy

When using a proxy, Google Chrome warns the user about it at startup. To connect directly, you must disable proxies at system level. That is, go to "Settings" Windows, then - "Network and Internet", in the section "Proxy server" disable the corresponding item.

To use Selenium in an Android Studio project, you can follow these steps

1. Create a New Android Studio Project

Open Android Studio and create a new Android project or open an existing project where you want to use Selenium.

2. Add Dependencies

Open your app's build.gradle file.

Add the Selenium dependency to the dependencies section. You can find the latest version on the Maven Repository.

dependencies {
    // Other dependencies...

    implementation 'org.seleniumhq.selenium:selenium-java:3.141.59'  // Use the latest version
}

Click "Sync Now" in the bar that appears at the top of Android Studio to sync the project and download the Selenium library.

3. Use Selenium in Your Code

You can now use Selenium in your Java code. For example, you can create a WebDriver instance and interact with a web page.

import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;

public class MainActivity {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        // Set the path to the ChromeDriver executable
        System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "/path/to/chromedriver");

        // Create a ChromeDriver instance
        WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();

        // Example: Open Google and print the title
        driver.get("https://www.google.com");
        System.out.println("Title: " + driver.getTitle());

        // Close the browser window
        driver.quit();
    }
}

Make sure to replace "/path/to/chromedriver" with the actual path to the ChromeDriver executable. You can download ChromeDriver from the official site.

4. Configure WebDriver

Depending on the WebDriver you are using (e.g., ChromeDriver, GeckoDriver for Firefox), you may need to configure the path to the WebDriver executable. Set the system property before creating the WebDriver instance.

5. Handling WebDriver in Android

Note that running Selenium directly on Android devices is not straightforward due to differences in the architecture and limitations. If you need to automate interactions with Android apps, you might want to look into tools like Appium, which is designed specifically for mobile app automation.

Remember that Selenium is primarily designed for web automation, and using it for Android app automation may not be the best choice. For native Android app automation, consider tools like Appium or Espresso. If you are working with web views within Android apps, you can still use Selenium for those parts.

Most often it is used on the iPhone just to bypass the blocking of access to certain resources. But also VPN is one of the most effective methods of protecting your confidential information. After all, with VPN all traffic is additionally encrypted, the provider can't read it even if it's intercepted.

A proxy is a service that allows access to websites blocked in different countries, while hiding your own IP address. It is a kind of intermediary between the end server and the owner's computer. A VPN provides an encrypted connection to the network, which not only allows you to keep your privacy, hide your IP address, encrypt Internet traffic, but also bypasses firewalls.

Open the browser settings and go to the "Advanced" section. Click on "System" and then, in the window that opens, click on "Open proxy settings for computer". A window will appear in front of you, showing all the current settings. Another way to find out the http proxy is to download and install the SocialKit Proxy Checker utility on your computer.
