How to Maximize window in chrome using webDriver (python)

Question

Is there a way to maximize the chrome browser window using python selenium WebDriver?

Note: I am using Chrome Driver 23.0 Any solution on this would be greatly appreciat

Answer 1

try this, tested on windows platform and it works fine :

from selenium import webdriver
browser = webdriver.Chrome('C:\\Users\\yeivic\\Downloads\\chromedriver')
browser.fullscreen_window()
browser.get('http://google.com/')

Answer 2

You could use ChromeOptions and set suitable argument:

options = ChromeOptions()
options.add_argument("--start-maximized")
driver = ChromeDriver(options)

Answer 3

Nothing worked for me except:

driver.set_window_size(1024, 600)
driver.maximize_window()

I found this by inspecting selenium/webdriver/remote/webdriver.py. I've never found any useful documentation, but reading the code has been marginally effective.

Answer 4

Try

ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
options.addArguments("--start-fullscreen");

Answer 5

This works for me, with Mac OS Sierra using Python,

options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
options.add_argument("--kiosk")
driver = webdriver.Chrome(chrome_options=options)

Answer 6

Try this:

driver.manage().window().maximize();
