How to handle authentication popup with Selenium WebDriver using Java

Question

I'm trying to handle authentication popup using the code below:

FirefoxProfile profile = new FirefoxProfile(); profile.setPreference("network.http.phishy-userpass-length", 255); profile.setPreference("network.automatic-ntlm-auth.trusted-uris", "x.x.x.x"); driver = new FirefoxDriver(profile); baseUrl="http://" + login + ":" + password + "@" + url; driver.get(baseUrl + "/"); 

When I execute the test, the page shows the authentication popup and still loading for a until I click cancel button. A that moment, I can access to the next page ,this mean that the authentication success but still always show the authentication popup

Answer 1

The Alert Method, authenticateUsing() lets you skip the Http Basic Authentication box.

WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 10);       Alert alert = wait.until(ExpectedConditions.alertIsPresent());      alert.authenticateUsing(new UserAndPassword(username, password)); 

As of Selenium 3.4 it is still in beta

Right now implementation is only done for InternetExplorerDriver

Answer 2

Don't use firefox profile and try below code:

driver.get("http://UserName:[email protected]"); 

If you're implementing it in IE browser, there are certain things which you need to do.

In case your authentication server requires username with domain like "domainuser" you need to add double slash / to the url:

//localdomain\user:[email protected]
