I want to use Selenium Webdriver Chrome in Node.js to go to a web page, fill out an input, click a button and then retrieve the contents of the browser's console. I am able to get the web page, fill out the input, and click the button, but so far I can't figure out how to retrieve the contents of the console. How do I do that?
This is the code I have so far:
const webdriver = require('selenium-webdriver');
const chromeDriver = require('selenium-webdriver/chrome');
const path = require('chromeDriver').path;
const service = new chromeDriver.ServiceBuilder(path).build();
chromeDriver.setDefaultService(service);
const { By, until } = webdriver;
webdriver.promise.USE_PROMISE_MANAGER = false;
const CHROME_BIN_PATH = '/Applications/Google\ Chrome.app/Contents/MacOS/Google\ Chrome';
const options = new chromeDriver.Options();
options.setChromeBinaryPath(CHROME_BIN_PATH);
options.addArguments(
'headless',
'disable-gpu',
);
const main = async () => {
try{
const driver = await new webdriver.Builder()
.withCapabilities(webdriver.Capabilities.chrome())
.forBrowser('chrome')
.setChromeOptions(options)
.build();
await driver.get('http://example.com/some/path.html');
await driver.findElement(By.name('name2')).sendKeys('webdriver');
await driver.findElement(By.name('button2')).click();
const title = await driver.findElement(By.css('title')).getAttribute('innerHTML');
console.log({ title });
const log = GET THE BROWSER'S CONSOLE LOG
console.log(log);
await driver.quit();
} catch (error) {
console.log(error);
}
};
main();
Per the documentation:
driver.manage().logs().get(logging.Type.BROWSER)
.then(function(entries) {
entries.forEach(function(entry) {
console.log('[%s] %s', entry.level.name, entry.message);
});
});
