Prompt-less file downloads on Chrome no longer works with image `3.141.59-20200719` and above. · Issue #1095 · SeleniumHQ/docker-selenium (original) (raw)

💥 Regression Report

Starting with node-chrome:3.141.59-20200719 downloading a file in Chrome bring up a modal/prompt asking for the save location. This error does not occur in node-chrome:3.141.59-20200525 and lower. Not sure if it coincides with a few other changes in the 3.141.59-20200719 image. Chrome was also bumped from v83 to v84. But when I test locally with v84 I can still do silent downloads.

Chrome options that enable prompt-less downloads -

Map<String, Object> chromePrefs = new HashMap<>(); ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions(); chromePrefs.put("download.default_directory", downloadPath); chromePrefs.put("download.prompt_for_download", false); options.setExperimentalOption("prefs", chromePrefs); MutableCapabilities chromeCapabilities = new MutableCapabilities(); chromeCapabilities.setCapability(ChromeOptions.CAPABILITY, options);

Last working version

Expected behavior

I should be able to download a file without the save-as prompt/modal from a web page in Chrome inside a running docker-selenium container.
