I am using HAR Export XPI to get the network traffic for the pages traversed using selenium. I am adding the XPI to ffv46 (as cannot add XPI to latest ff browsers). I have used the below mentioned mentioned profile settings -
profile.setPreference("app.update.enabled", false);
profile.setPreference("extensions.netmonitor.har.enableAutomation", true);
profile.setPreference("extensions.netmonitor.har.contentAPIToken", "true");
profile.setPreference("extensions.netmonitor.har.autoConnect", true);
profile.setPreference("devtools.netmonitor.enabled", true);
profile.setPreference("devtools.netmonitor.har.pageLoadedTimeout", "50000");
profile.setPreference("devtools.netmonitor.har.defaultLogDir", "FOLDER_ON_SYSTEM");
profile.setPreference("devtools.netmonitor.har.enableAutoExportToFile", false);
And I am injecting the following javascript to get the HAR file.
function triggerExport() {
var options = {
token: "true",
getData: true,
fileName: "Export_%y%m%d_%H%M%S"
};
HAR.triggerExport(options).then(result => {
console.log(result);
});
};
if (typeof HAR === 'undefined')
{
console.log("Calling Undefined");
addEventListener('har-api-ready', event => {
console.log("har api ready");
console.log(event);
triggerExport();
}, false);
}
else
{
console.log("Calling defined");
triggerExport();
}
But the HAR file is not getting generated. Is there something that I am missing. Also, if i try to type HAR in the FF console I am getting the message as undefined, which is causing the function to fail.
Is there any other setting that I am missing.
Thanks in advance !!!!
Since I had no luck solving this using other suggested solutions (AFAIK browsermob proxy
and XPI weren't updated in quite a while), I created a small npm module to capture selenium tests as HAR files - link
I used the Chrome Dev Tools Protocol to capture Fetch events, you can see my logic here
