Unable to maximize Safari browser on MAC with Selenium Webdriver

Question

We are using Selenium with Java to automate our Web application. We have working code to run automated test scripts on Windows operating system for the three browsers (IE, Chrome, Firefox - Latest version).

We have got the requirement to run automated test scripts on MAC operating system - Safari browser.

Environment Details:

MAC OS version : macOS Sierra version 10.12.5

Safari browser version : 10.1.1(12603.2.4)

Selenium standalone server version : 3.4.0

Java version : 1.8.0_112

Connected MAC VM with VNC viewer (Sys admin team provided MAC VM for our testing).

While executing test scripts on MAC, below code is not maximizing Safari browser, which is working fine for other browsers(IE, Chrome and Firefox) on Windows. Due to this we are unable to locate some of the controls on application.

driver.manage().window().maximize();

We are not getting any exception, code is executing but not performing any action.

Please help to overcome Safari browser maximize issue on MAC.

Really I thought my issue got resolved with this solution, tried code to maximize Safari browser, but getting exception.

Code:

 SafariOptions options = new SafariOptions();
options.setUseCleanSession(true);
driver = new SafariDriver(options);
JavascriptExecutor jse = (JavascriptExecutor)driver;
String screenWidth = jse.executeScript("return screen.availWidth").toString();
String screenHeight = jse.executeScript("return screen.availHeight").toString();
int intScreenWidth = Integer.parseInt(screenWidth);
int intScreenHeight = Integer.parseInt(screenHeight);
org.openqa.selenium.Dimension d = new org.openqa.selenium.Dimension(intScreenWidth, intScreenHeight);
driver.manage().window().setSize(d);

Exception:

Answer 1

Safari browser maximize issue got resolved after upgrading Safari version to 11.0(12604.1.35)

And the working code is

driver.manage().window().maximize();
