Javascript test : Selenium cookies data url

Question

I have a Behat test running Selenium whenever Javascript is needed. My current Behat test works just fine if Javascript (so Selenium is disable).

At the moment, my only error feedback from Selenium is the following statement :

unknown: Failed to set the 'cookie' property on 'Document': Cookies are disabled inside 'data:' URLs.

What am I doing wrong here ? Some posts talk about cookies but I don't really see where to append them.

Answer 1

You can't set a cookie using the Chrome driver until the page is fully loaded. Use selenium to wait for the page to load and then set cookies.

Answer 2

You will need open page before add cookie:

$capabilities = DesiredCapabilities::chrome();
$host = 'http://localhost:4444/wd/hub'; // this is the default
$this->webDriver = RemoteWebDriver::create($host, $capabilities, 5000);
$this->urnOpen('/');
$cookie = array();
$cookie['name'] = 'NAME';
$cookie['value'] = 'VALUE';
$this->webDriver->manage()->addCookie($cookie);
