NAME

Selenium::Remote::Driver::Firefox::Profile - Use custom profiles with Selenium::Remote::Driver

VERSION

version 0.2201

DESCRIPTION

You can use this module to create a custom Firefox Profile for your Selenium tests. Currently, you can set browser preferences and add extensions to the profile before passing it in the constructor for a new Selenium::Remote::Driver.

METHODS

set_preference

Set string and integer preferences on the profile object. You can set multiple preferences at once. If you need to set a boolean preference, see set_boolean_preference().

    $profile->set_preference("quoted.integer.pref" => '"20140314220517"');
    # user_pref("quoted.integer.pref", "20140314220517");

    $profile->set_preference("plain.integer.pref" => 9005);
    # user_pref("plain.integer.pref", 9005);

    $profile->set_preference("string.pref" => "sample string value");
    # user_pref("string.pref", "sample string value");

set_boolean_preference

Set preferences that require boolean values of 'true' or 'false'. You can set multiple preferences at once. For string or integer preferences, use set_preference().

    $profile->set_boolean_preference("false.pref" => 0);
    # user_pref("false.pref", false);

    $profile->set_boolean_preference("true.pref" => 1);
    # user_pref("true.pref", true);

get_preference

Retrieve the computed value of a preference. Strings will be double quoted and boolean values will be single quoted as "true" or "false" accordingly.

    $profile->set_boolean_preference("true.pref" => 1);
    print $profile->get_preference("true.pref") # true

    $profile->set_preference("string.pref" => "an extra set of quotes");
    print $profile->get_preference("string.pref") # "an extra set of quotes"

add_extension

Add an existing .xpi to the profile by providing its path. This only works with packaged .xpi files, not plain/un-packed extension directories.

    $profile->add_extension('t/www/redisplay.xpi');

SYNPOSIS

    use Selenium::Remote::Driver;
    use Selenium::Remote::Driver::Firefox::Profile;

    my $profile = Selenium::Remote::Driver::Firefox::Profile->new;
    $profile->set_preference(
        'browser.startup.homepage' => 'http://www.google.com',
        'browser.cache.disk.capacity' => 358400
    );

    $profile->set_boolean_preference(
        'browser.shell.checkDefaultBrowser' => 0
    );

    $profile->add_extension('t/www/redisplay.xpi');

    my $driver = Selenium::Remote::Driver->new(
        'firefox_profile' => $profile
    );

    $driver->get('http://www.google.com');
    print $driver->get_title();
