Is there any way to display when i want what is happening and also interact with a browser in a docker container controlled by selenium (python)?
I mean I have this scenario:
I want to get a website using tor browser by python selenium and I want to show to a remote client what it's happening on the tor browser and interact with it like insert input text and click buttons
I want to use the selenium webdriver on a linux server running Ubuntu. How can I use selenium on said server without opening a browser, as it doesn't have one? I'm using Selenium with Python and Gecko(Firefox), but I'll be willing to switch to JavaScript or Chrome if I have to.
I attempted to follow this post [here][1]:
how to set proxy with authentication in selenium chromedriver python? to use an authenticated proxy with Chome Webdriver. It doesn't work and I get ERR_TUNNEL_CONNECTION_FAILED from Chrome. Is there a new solution to this or does the code from the linked StackOverflow need to be updated? I am using ChromeDriver v81 for Windows.
I tried, without success, to find a way to use the rotating proxies in Chrome for Selenium. Is there any other library that can I use to open chrome using different proxies every time?
I'm looking for a solution that could help me out automating the already opened application in Chrome web browser using Selenium and Python web driver. The issue is that the application is super secured, and if it is opened in incognito mode as Selenium tries to do, it sends special code on my phone. This defeats the whole purpose. Can someone provide a hacky way or any other work around/open source tool to automate the application.
Selenium doesn't start Chrome in incognito mode, It just creates a new and fresh profile in the temp folder. You could force Selenium to use the default profile or you could launch Chrome with the debug port opened and the let Selenium connect to it. There is also a third way which is to preinstall the webdriver extension in Chrome. These are the only ways I've encountered to automate Chrome with Selenium.
