Selenium lets you set browser arguments for Chromium based browsers. When selecting Chrome, Firefox, and Edge, you can set browser options using ChromeOptions, EdgeOptions, and FirefoxOptions capability as shown below.

```java import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver; import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver; import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeOptions;

        public class ChromeTest {
            public static void main(String[] args) {
                ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
                // Set Chrome capabilities
                options.addArguments("--headless");

                WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(options);
                driver.get("http://example.com");
                // Your test code here
                driver.quit();
            }
        }
    ```
</div>

```java import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver; import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver; import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxOptions;

        public class FirefoxTest {
            public static void main(String[] args) {
                FirefoxOptions options = new FirefoxOptions();
                // Set Firefox capabilities
                options.addArguments("--headless");

                WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver(options);
                driver.get("http://example.com");
                // Your test code here
                driver.quit();
            }
        }
    ```
</div>

```java import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver; import org.openqa.selenium.edge.EdgeDriver; import org.openqa.selenium.edge.EdgeOptions;

        public class EdgeTest {
            public static void main(String[] args) {
                EdgeOptions options = new EdgeOptions();
                // Set Edge capabilities
                options.addArguments("--headless");

                WebDriver driver = new EdgeDriver(options);
                driver.get("http://example.com");
                // Your test code here
                driver.quit();
            }

Desired Capability to Automate IE Mode in Microsoft Edge

LambdaTest's Automation allows you to automate IE Mode in Microsoft Edge on Windows 11. You can pass the below desired capability in your test script and execute your tests.

InternetExplorerOptions browserOptions = new InternetExplorerOptions();
browserOptions.setPlatformName("Windows 11");
browserOptions.setBrowserVersion("11.0");
HashMap<String, Object> ltOptions = new HashMap<String, Object>();
ltOptions.put("username", "Your LambdaTest Username");
ltOptions.put("accessKey", "Your LambdaTest Access Key");
ltOptions.put("project", "Untitled");
ltOptions.put("w3c", true);
browserOptions.setCapability("LT:Options", ltOptions);
