To run Firefox with Selenium and connected extensions, you'll need to use the FirefoxDriverService and FirefoxOptions. You can also set the path to the Firefox executable and the path to the extensions' .xpi files using the FirefoxBinary and FirefoxProfile classes. Here's an example of how to do this:
Install the required NuGet packages:
Install-Package OpenQA.Selenium.Firefox.WebDriver -Version 3.141.0
Install-Package OpenQA.Selenium.Support.UI -Version 3.141.0
Create a method to add extensions to the Firefox profile:
using OpenQA.Selenium;
using OpenQA.Selenium.Firefox;
using System.IO;
using System.Linq;
public static IWebDriver CreateFirefoxDriverWithExtensions(string[] extensionPaths)
{
var firefoxOptions = new FirefoxOptions();
var firefoxBinary = new FirefoxBinary(Path.GetDirectoryName(FirefoxDriverService.DefaultServicePath));
var firefoxProfile = new FirefoxProfile();
// Add extensions to the Firefox profile
foreach (var extensionPath in extensionPaths)
{
var extensionFile = new FileInfo(extensionPath);
if (extensionFile.Exists)
{
firefoxProfile.AddExtension(extensionPath);
}
}
firefoxOptions.BinaryLocation = firefoxBinary.Path;
firefoxOptions.Profile = firefoxProfile;
// Start the FirefoxDriverService with the specified Firefox binary
var driverService = FirefoxDriverService.CreateDefaultService(firefoxBinary.Path, FirefoxDriverService.DefaultPort);
driverService.EnableVerboseLogging = true;
// Create the FirefoxDriver with the specified options
var driver = new FirefoxDriver(driverService, firefoxOptions);
return driver;
}
Use the CreateFirefoxDriverWithExtensions method in your test code:
using OpenQA.Selenium;
using System;
namespace SeleniumFirefoxExtensionsExample
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
// Paths to the extensions' .xpi files
string[] extensionPaths = new[]
{
@"path\to\extension1.xpi",
@"path\to\extension2.xpi"
};
// Create the FirefoxDriver with connected extensions
using (var driver = CreateFirefoxDriverWithExtensions(extensionPaths))
{
// Set up the WebDriver
driver.Manage().Window.Maximize();
// Navigate to the target web page
driver.Navigate().GoToUrl("https://www.example.com");
// Perform any additional actions as needed
// Close the browser
driver.Quit();
}
}
}
}
In this example, we first create a method called CreateFirefoxDriverWithExtensions that takes an array of extension paths as input. Inside the method, we set up the FirefoxOptions, FirefoxBinary, and FirefoxProfile to include the specified extensions. Then, we start the FirefoxDriverService with the specified Firefox binary and create the FirefoxDriver with the specified options.
In the test code, we call the CreateFirefoxDriverWithExtensions method with the paths to the extensions' .xpi files and use the returned IWebDriver instance to interact with the browser.
Remember to replace "path\to\extension1.xpi" and "path\to\extension2.xpi" with the actual paths to the extensions' .xpi files you want to connect.
