Setting specific chrome flags in puppeteer (enable and disable)

Question

I\'m trying to add specific flags of chrome (flags that are found in \"chrome://flags/\") to the running of my browser in the tests.

The flags I\'m trying to enable

Answer 1

Follow these steps, please.

1. puppeteer.defaultArgs() will provide you all default flags. You this method to get them, then filter the array to remove flags that you want to. https://github.com/GoogleChrome/puppeteer/blob/master/docs/api.md#puppeteerdefaultargs

   const args = puppeteer.defaultArgs().filter(arg => arg !== '--enable-asm-webassembly')

2. Now, add some flags to the array.

   args.push('--enable-webgl-draft-extensions', '--shared-array-buffer')

3. Enable ignoreDefaultArgs flag when launch a new instance of browser. Also, provide the list of arguments we made above.

   const browser = await puppeteer.launch({ ignoreDefaultArgs: true, args })
