Python Windows Authentication username and password is not working
Solution 1:
When you work with Selenium 3.4.0
, geckodriver v0.18.0
, Mozilla Firefox 53.0
through Python 3.6.1
you can bypass the Basic Authentication
popup through embedding the username
and password
in the url
itself as follows.
This solution opens the URL
http://the-internet.herokuapp.com/basic_auth and authenticates with a valid username
and password
credentials.
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.firefox.firefox_binary import FirefoxBinary
binary = FirefoxBinary('C:\\Program Files\\Mozilla Firefox\\firefox.exe')
driver = webdriver.Firefox(firefox_binary=binary, executable_path="C:\\Utility\\BrowserDrivers\\geckodriver.exe")
driver.get("http://admin:[email protected]/basic_auth")
Solution 2:
def test_1_authentication(self):
self.driver.get("https://the-internet.herokuapp.com/basic_auth")
shell = win32com.client.Dispatch("WScript.Shell")
shell.Sendkeys("admin")
time.sleep(3)
shell.Sendkeys("{TAB}")
time.sleep(3)
shell.Sendkeys("admin")
time.sleep(3)
shell.Sendkeys("{ENTER}")
time.sleep(3)
Above code is also properly worked :)
