Selenium：在Internet Explorer中将文件下载到指定的文件夹，而无需直接链接，没有Windows窗体，没有AutoIt或Robot

Question

我经常遇到一个问题，如何在IE中下载文件。 与Firefox的Chrome相比，您不能仅指定所需的文件夹，而是将所有文件下载到该文件夹​​。 您还需要与本机Windows窗体等进行交互。

有多个选项，例如使用AutoIt，使用键盘命令，Robot等。但是所有这些选项都不稳定，它们需要显式等待，使用冗余库以及在并行运行测试时不适当。 另一个问题是，如果文件不是通过直接链接下载的，而是从javascript命令生成的或从服务器接收的，并且无法从html提取的，该怎么办。

所有这些问题都可以解决，在这里我将展示如何做到。 解决方案是用C＃编写的，我相信同样可以在Java中实现

方法DownloadFileIexplore将文件下载到指定的filePath（文件夹+文件名），例如DownloadFileExplore（“ C：\\ my_folder \\ report.xslx”）

    public void DownloadFileIexplore(string filePath)
    {
        //Click the link.
        //Simple click can be used instead, but in my case it didn't work for all the links, so i've replaced it with click via action: 
        new Actions(Browser.Driver).MoveToElement(Element).Click(Element).Perform();

        //Different types of element can be used to download file.
        //If the element contains direct link, it can be extracter from 'href' attribute.
        //If the element doesn't contains href or it's just an javascript command, link will be extracted from the browser http requests.
        //
        string downloadUrlOrLink = Element.GetAttribute("href") != null && !Element.GetAttribute("href").Contains("javascript")
            ? Element.GetAttribute("href")
            : GetRequestUrls().Last() ?? GetLinkInNewWindowIexplore();
        if (downloadUrlOrLink == null)
        {
            throw Log.Exception("Download url cannot be read from the element href attribute and from the recent http requests.");
        }

        /// the last step is to download file using CookieWebClient
        /// method DownloadFile is available in the System.Net.WebClient, 
        /// but we have to create new class CookieWebClient, that will be inherited from System.Net.WebClient with one overriden method
        new CookieWebClient(GetCookies()).DownloadFile(downloadUrlOrLink, filePath);
    }


    /// <summary>
    /// this method returns all the http requests sent from browser.
    /// the latest requests was send when link (or button) was clicked to download file
    /// so we will need just to get last element from list: GetRequestUrls().Last().
    /// or, if the request for file downloading isn't the last, find the required request by part of url, in my case it was 'common/handler', e.g.:
    /// GetRequestUrls().LastOrDefault(x => x.Contains("common/handler")) 
    /// <summary>
    public List<string> GetRequestUrls()
    {
        ReadOnlyCollection<object> requestsUrls = (ReadOnlyCollection<object>) 
            Driver.ExecuteScript("return window.performance.getEntries().map(function(x) { return x.name });");
        return requestsUrls.Select(x => (string) x).ToList();
    }

    /// <summary>
    /// In some cases after clicking the Download button new window is opened in IE.
    /// Driver.WindowHandles can return only one window instead of two.
    /// To solve this problem reset IE security settings and set Enable Protected Mode for each zone.
    /// </summary>
    private string GetLinkInNewWindowIexplore()
    {
        /// here it would be better to add waiting till new window is opened.
        /// in that case we have to calculate number of windows before click and send this number as argument to GetLinkInNewWindowIexplore()
        /// and wait till number will be increased by 1 
        var availableWindows = Driver.WindowHandles;
        if (availableWindows.Count > 1)
        {
            Driver.SwitchTo().Window(availableWindows[availableWindows.Count - 1]);
        }
        string url;
        try
        {
            url = Driver.Url;
        }
        catch (Exception)
        {
            url = Driver.ExecuteScript("return document.URL;").ToString();
        }
        Driver.SwitchTo().Window(Driver.WindowHandles[0]);
        return url;
    }

    public System.Net.CookieContainer GetCookies()
    {
        CookieContainer cookieContainer = new CookieContainer();
        foreach (OpenQA.Selenium.Cookie cookie in Driver.Manage().Cookies.AllCookies)

            });
        }
        return cookieContainer;
    }

    private readonly CookieContainer _cookieContainer;

    public CookieWebClient(CookieContainer cookieContainer)
    {
        _cookieContainer = cookieContainer;
