Cannot set a default profile for the Firefox in Selenium Webdriver 3, because there is no such constructor in the FirefoxDriver class.
Code:
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxProfile;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.ProfilesIni;
import org.testng.annotations.BeforeMethod;
import org.testng.annotations.Test;
public class SeleniumStartTest {
@Test
public void seleniumFirefox() {
System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver", "C:\\Users\\FirefoxDriver\\geckodriver.exe");
ProfilesIni profileIni = new ProfilesIni();
FirefoxProfile profile = profileIni.getProfile("default");
WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver(profile);
driver.get("http://www.google.com");
}
}
Java code a compile error:
Java Code
Maven pom.xml dependencies:
Selenium 3.14.0
Firefox version:
Firefox version 62.0.2
As you are using Selenium 3.14.0 as per the FirefoxDriver Class the valid constructors are:
FirefoxDriver()
FirefoxDriver(FirefoxOptions options)
FirefoxDriver(GeckoDriverService service)
FirefoxDriver(GeckoDriverService service, FirefoxOptions options)
FirefoxDriver(XpiDriverService service)
FirefoxDriver(XpiDriverService service, FirefoxOptions options)
So, as per your code attempts the following is not a valid option to invoke FirefoxDriver()
WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver(profile);
Solution
To invoke invoke FirefoxDriver()
with the default profile you need to use the setProfile(profile)
method to set the FirefoxProfile through an instance of FirefoxOptions()
and you can use the following code block:
Code Block:
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxOptions;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxProfile;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.ProfilesIni;
import org.testng.annotations.Test;
public class A_FirefoxProfile {
@Test
public void seleniumFirefox() {
System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver", "C:/Utility/BrowserDrivers/geckodriver.exe");
ProfilesIni profileIni = new ProfilesIni();
FirefoxProfile profile = profileIni.getProfile("default");
FirefoxOptions options = new FirefoxOptions();
options.setProfile(profile);
WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver(options);
driver.get("http://www.google.com");
System.out.println(driver.getTitle());
}
}

move your setup to @BeforeClass
I'm using this setup, works just fine:
@BeforeClass
public static void setUpClass() {
FirefoxOptions options = new FirefoxOptions();
ProfilesIni allProfiles = new ProfilesIni();
FirefoxProfile selenium_profile = allProfiles.getProfile("selenium_profile");
options.setProfile(selenium_profile);
options.setBinary("C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Mozilla Firefox\\firefox.exe");
System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver", "C:\\Users\\pburgr\\Desktop\\geckodriver-v0.20.0-win64\\geckodriver.exe");
driver = new FirefoxDriver(options);
driver.manage().window().maximize();}
just change paths and profile designation.
