NVD Concedes Inability to Keep Pace with Surging CVE Disclosures in 2025
Security experts warn that recent classification changes obscure the true scope of the NVD backlog as CVE volume hits all-time highs.
package for implementing webdriver BIDI. The alpha has basic class to create, subscribe and listen to events. Currently, the development of this package is ongoing and the next release will include a simple API for subscribing to and listening to multiple events. This will make it easier for developers to interact with the WebDriver BIDI protocol and handle multiple events within their applications.
npm i wd-bidi@latest
Here is the sample code on implementation. Get complete code from github.
require('chromedriver');
const {Builder} = require('selenium-webdriver');
const Chrome= require('selenium-webdriver/chrome');
const opts = new Chrome.Options();
const {BiDi, BrowsingContext } = require('wd-bidi');
describe('BrowserContext: Create and listen to event', ()=> {
let driver;
before(async ()=> {
driver = await new Builder()
.forBrowser('chrome')
.setChromeOptions(opts.set('webSocketUrl', true))
.build();
})
it('should listen browserContext events', async () => {
const caps = await driver.getCapabilities();
let WebSocketUrl = caps['map_'].get('webSocketUrl')
const conn = new BiDi(WebSocketUrl.replace('localhost', '127.0.0.1'));
// Subscribe to events
const browsingContext = new BrowsingContext(conn);
await browsingContext.events.contextCreated();
// create a tab
await browsingContext.create({type: 'tab'})
// print the subscription result
console.log(await browsingContext.events.eventSubscriptionData)
})
after(async ()=> await driver.quit())
})
require('chromedriver');
const {Builder, By} = require('selenium-webdriver');
const Chrome= require('selenium-webdriver/chrome');
const opts = new Chrome.Options();
const { Session, BiDi, Log} = require('wd-bidi');
describe('Log Events', ()=> {
let driver;
before(async ()=> {
driver = await new Builder()
.forBrowser('chrome')
.setChromeOptions(opts.set('webSocketUrl', true))
.build();
})
it('should listen to log events', async () => {
const caps = await driver.getCapabilities();
let WebSocketUrl = caps['map_'].get('webSocketUrl')
const conn = new BiDi(WebSocketUrl.replace('localhost', '127.0.0.1'));
const log = new Log(conn);
// Subscribe to log events
await log.events.entryAdded();
await driver.get('https://www.selenium.dev/selenium/web/bidi/logEntryAdded.html');
//generic log
await driver.findElement(By.id('consoleLog')).click();
await driver.sleep(1000);
console.log(log.events.eventSubscriptionData)
// console error
await driver.findElement(By.id('consoleError')).click();
await driver.sleep(1000);
console.log(log.events.eventSubscriptionData)
//js exception
await driver.findElement(By.id('jsException')).click();
await driver.sleep(1000);
console.log(log.events.eventSubscriptionData)
// log with stacktrace
await driver.findElement(By.id('logWithStacktrace')).click();
