Handling Chrome in Mac for Automation(update off/driver path)





If you are doing Automation on chrome on your Mac system then you face few issues like .
updgrade in you chrome browser which leads to updating chromedriver.

I still work on chrome version 85 to disable the chrome update you need to

Go to application-> search chrome driver -> Right click->show packaged content




 Open contents 




-> go to frameworks->Google chrome framework.framework->versions-> remove folder with name “Current” Its not visible in below screenshot as it already removed


 This will stop updating your chrome driver 


If your you want to update your chrome then search for the updated chrome driver download the version for Mac unzip 
and place it in the folder where your eclipse workspace is created, to do that 
First Go to eclipse Right click on the project-> go to properties

Copy the path

Now press 
command+shift+G. (pointing cursor in desktop)
paste the path  " /Users/priyankac/Documents/workspace"

Now you can copy and paste the chrome driver in the workspace you are working
You can also add the chrome driver at usr/local/bin
To do so got to the top menu and click on "Go"-> "Go to folder"

enter usr/local/bin in search bar and click on "Go"

paste the chrome driver in the  bin




Run the simple code to check if your chrome is working 


public class Multiplewindows {


WebDriver driver;

@Test

public void test1() throws InterruptedException {

System.setProperty("Webdriver.chrome.driver", "chromedriver");

    WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();

   driver.get("https://www.flipkart.com");

   System.out.println(driver.getTitle());

}

}Y
