I'm trying to launch a specific URL using Firefox. But I'm only able to open Firefox browser and not able to launch that URL.
class BrowserHelper
{
IWebDriver driver;
string path = Path.Combine(Environment.CurrentDirectory, @"gecko\\");
public void Navigate(string url)
{
path = path.Replace(@"\", @"\\");
var driverService = FirefoxDriverService.CreateDefaultService(path);
driverService.HideCommandPromptWindow = true;
if (driver == null)
{
driver = new FirefoxDriver(driverService);
}
driver.Url = url;
driver.Navigate().GoToUrl(driver.Url);
driver.Manage().Window.Maximize();
}
}
class Realtest
{
BrowserHelper BH = new BrowserHelper();
public void test()
{
string search ="apple";
BH.Navigate("https://www.google.com/search?q=" + search);
}
}
Here's the final URL I want to launch: https://www.google.com.sg/search?q=apple
Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.
I have tried the below code (in Java), and it's working fine by launching the browser and loading the URL also.
System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver","Drivers/geckodriver.exe");
WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
driver.get("https://www.google.com.sg/search?q=apple");
So I feel the problem is with geckodriver version and FireFox browser installed in your local machine. I would suggest you update FireFox and geckodriver to the latest version.
There is also a pretty easy solution using the command line with c#.
Simply execute the following command to open a new Firefox Tab with the given URL:
start firefox wikipedia.de
You can also start a new Firefox instance if you wish:
start firefox -new-instance wikipedia.de
Last but not least the .Net Code to execute the commands in CLI:
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(new System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo()
{
Arguments = "/c start firefox wikipedia.de",
CreateNoWindow = true,
FileName = "CMD.exe"
});
There is also a lot of other stuff that can be done with Firefox commandLine paramters. You an find all of them here: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Command_Line_Options?redirectlocale=en-US&redirectslug=Command_Line_Options
This also works with chrome and opera, simply call
start opera wikipedia.de
instead of firefox.
You do not need to set driver.Url
, remove that line.
driver.Navigate().GoToUrl(url);
driver.Manage().Window.Maximize();
Also, if you simply want to launch a single URL without interacting with the page, then Selenium is overkill.
