How to click Allow on Show Notifications popup using Selenium Webdriver

I'm trying to login to Facebook. After a successful login, I get a browser popup:

How with the webdriver can I click Allow and proceed forward?

Solution 1:

Please Follow below steps :

A) USING JAVA :

For Old Chrome Version (<50):

//Create a instance of ChromeOptions class
ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();

//Add chrome switch to disable notification - "**--disable-notifications**"
options.addArguments("--disable-notifications");

//Set path for driver exe 
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver","path/to/driver/exe");

//Pass ChromeOptions instance to ChromeDriver Constructor
WebDriver driver =new ChromeDriver(options);

For New Chrome Version (>50):

//Create a map to store  preferences 
Map<String, Object> prefs = new HashMap<String, Object>();

//add key and value to map as follow to switch off browser notification
//Pass the argument 1 to allow and 2 to block
prefs.put("profile.default_content_setting_values.notifications", 2);

//Create an instance of ChromeOptions 
ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();

// set ExperimentalOption - prefs 
options.setExperimentalOption("prefs", prefs);

//Now Pass ChromeOptions instance to ChromeDriver Constructor to initialize chrome driver which will switch off this browser notification on the chrome browser
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(options);

For Firefox :

    WebDriver driver ;
    FirefoxProfile profile = new FirefoxProfile();
    profile.setPreference("permissions.default.desktop-notification", 1);
    DesiredCapabilities capabilities=DesiredCapabilities.firefox();
    capabilities.setCapability(FirefoxDriver.PROFILE, profile);
    driver = new FirefoxDriver(capabilities);
    driver.get("http://google.com");

B) USING PYTHON :

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options

option = Options()

option.add_argument("--disable-infobars")
option.add_argument("start-maximized")
option.add_argument("--disable-extensions")

# Pass the argument 1 to allow and 2 to block
option.add_experimental_option("prefs", { 
    "profile.default_content_setting_values.notifications": 1 
})

driver = webdriver.Chrome(chrome_options=option, executable_path='path-of- 
driver\chromedriver.exe')
driver.get('https://www.facebook.com')

C) USING C#:

ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
options.AddArguments("--disable-notifications"); // to disable notification
IWebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(options);

Solution 2:

import unittest

from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
from selenium import webdriver
import time

class SendMsgSkype(unittest.TestCase):
    @classmethod
    def setUpClass(cls):

        options = Options()
        options.add_argument("--disable-notifications")

        cls.driver = webdriver.Chrome('./chromedriver.exe', chrome_options=options)

        cls.driver.implicitly_wait(5)
        cls.driver.maximize_window()
        cls.driver.get("https://web.skype.com/ru/")

It works for me. More details here: http://nullege.com/codes/show/src@t@a@[email protected]/21/selenium.webdriver.Chrome

Solution 3:

This not an alert box, so you can't handle it using Alert, this is a chrome browser notification, To Switch off this browser notification you need to create chrome preference map with chrome option as below :-

//Create prefs map to store all preferences 
Map<String, Object> prefs = new HashMap<String, Object>();

//Put this into prefs map to switch off browser notification
prefs.put("profile.default_content_setting_values.notifications", 2);

//Create chrome options to set this prefs
ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
options.setExperimentalOption("prefs", prefs);

//Now initialize chrome driver with chrome options which will switch off this browser notification on the chrome browser
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(options);

//Now do your further steps

Hope it helps..:)
