How to stop the webdriver to close browser

[erdelyizsolt]

I want to stop closing the webdriver after the tests, there is any settings for that in the serenity.conf?
Right now i do not use the cucumber hooks, and during writing the test scenarios, i want to hang the driver before it close the browser....
Thanks!

You mean leave the browser open after the tests have finished?

Yes. I mean somewhere is a driver.quit, or driver.close function coded, and i want to suspend it, temporary. I do not found it (i use serenity.conf file, and extend the PageObject class for my page object files, if that info help)

This isn't currently supported, but if you want to propose a PR I'd be happy to review. But it is generally very hard knowing that you are finishing the last test, so you may end up with lots of open browsers.

Hi,
I want to log-off from my application before driver.close() or quit() is performed. Since browser instance is closed without logging-off from my application after one test is over, so when new browser instance is invoked for next test run, login is restricted as per my application security policy. As it does not allow multiple or concurrent login from the same user.

Due this issue, I am not able to execute whole regression test suite in one go where multiple tests are performed with different browser instance. I also tried to setup "serenity.restart.browser.for.each=never" properly in serenity.conf . After this new browser window is not invoked for next test but log-off does happen.

So the question here is how can I add script for logging off before driver.close or quit()

Please help, Thanks

Create a class that implements AfterAWebdriverScenario, e.g.

public class AfterAWebScenarioEnds implements AfterAWebdriverScenario {
    @Override
    public void apply(EnvironmentVariables environmentVariables, TestOutcome testOutcome, WebDriver webDriver) {
        // DO SOMETHING HERE
    }
}

And add the package to the serenity.extension.packages property in your serenity.conf file, e.g.

serenity.extension.packages="net.serenitybdd.demos.todos.cucumber.steps"

what exactly I need to write inside apply method because I want the browser to stay open and not be closed.
And if you can explain serenity.extension.packages more and what I need to write exactly will help a lot.

Beacause,
I copy pasted below line in serenity.config file but still the browser is getting closed.
serenity.extension.packages="net.serenitybdd.demos.todos.cucumber.steps"

Thanks in advance

Having the browser stay open is not currently supported. However if you need to do something with the browser before the test finishes and the browser closes, that is how you do it.

Please introduce it. Thats very helpful in debugging
