Customize and configure ChromeDriver sessions for Selenium tests on BrowserStack Automate.
A ChromeDriver session i.e. a test running on the Chrome browser, can further be customized and configured using ChromeOptions. BrowserStack supports the full complement of ChromeOptions.
Refer to the following sample capability declaration example where ChromeOptions is being used to start Chrome in incognito mode:
platforms:-os: OS X
osVersion: Big Sur
browserName: Chrome
browserVersion: latest
chrome:driver: 112.0.5615.28
chromeOptions:args:- incognito
---start-maximized
BrowserStack SDK is a plug-n-play solution that takes care of all the integration steps for you. Using the BrowserStack SDK is the recommended integration method for your project. To know more, visit the SDK core concepts page.
