DevTools
A Chrome DevTools protocol binding that maps WebDriver commands into Chrome DevTools commands using Puppeteer
This package provides a low level interface to run browser automation scripts based on the WebDriver protocol. If you are looking for a tool to automate Chrome or Firefox you should look up Puppeteer. This is suppose to be used by the WebdriverIO package in order to run its automation on the Chrome DevTools protocol.
Install
To install this package from NPM run:
$ npm i devtools webdriverio
Example
The following example demonstrates how WebdriverIO can be used with the devtools
package as automation binding using the automationProtocol
option:
const { remote } = require('webdriverio')
let browser;
(async () => {
browser = await remote({
automationProtocol: 'devtools',
capabilities: {
browserName: 'chrome'
}
})
await browser.url('https://webdriver.io')
await browser.call(async () => {
const puppeteerBrowser = browser.getPuppeteer()
const page = (await puppeteerBrowser.pages())[0]
await page.setRequestInterception(true)
page.on('request', interceptedRequest => {
if (interceptedRequest.url().endsWith('webdriverio.png')) {
return interceptedRequest.continue({
url: 'https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/10379601/29446482-04f7036a-841f-11e7-9872-91d1fc2ea683.png'
})
}
interceptedRequest.continue()
})
})
await browser.refresh()
await browser.pause(2000)
await browser.deleteSession()
})().catch(async (e) => {
console.error(e)
await browser.deleteSession()
})
