How to trigger a click on a chrome extension button?

问题

I'm building an automated test suite using Selenium Web Driver. At a certain point I must test how the page works by having a Chrome extension turn on or off. Think of it as you would want to click on the Adblock extension and then click disable for this site. Then, turn it on again. I searched all over the Internet and there is no way to implement this using just Selenium. Do you know how could I perform such an action? (from Java ideally)

On blazemeter is a nice description available, that probably also works for you:

One possible solution is to go with Chrome options and manage the extensions set to the WebDriver. Quick example:

ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
options.addExtensions(new File("/path/to/extension.crx"));
DesiredCapabilities capabilities = new DesiredCapabilities();
capabilities.setCapability(ChromeOptions.CAPABILITY, options);
ChromeDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(capabilities);

If you want to turn those On and OFF in a single test, you can spawn two separate drivers and compare the results, since I'm not sure that session reuse will do the job in this case.

Below is the solution is in Python with pyautogui (I believe it's similar to autoit in java - so you can extend the same solution for java also).

Pre-Condition:

save the extension image in the project folder (I saved it under "autogui_ref_snaps" folder in my example with "capture_full_screenshot.png" name

Python:

Imports needed

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver import ChromeOptions
from Common_Methods.GenericMethods import *
import pyautogui  #<== need this to click on extension

Script:

options = ChromeOptions()
options.add_argument("--load-extension=" + r"C:\Users\supputuri\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Extensions\fdpohaocaechififmbbbbbknoalclacl\5.1_0") #<== loading unpacked extension

driver = webdriver.Chrome(
executable_path=os.path.join(chrome_options=options)
url = "https://google.com/"
driver.get(url)

# get the extension box
extn = pyautogui.locateOnScreen(os.path.join(GenericMethods.get_full_path_to_folder('autogui_ref_snaps') + "/capture_full_screenshot.png"))
# click on extension 
pyautogui.click(x=extn[0],y=extn[1],clicks=1,interval=0.0,button="left")

If you are loading an extension and it's not available in incognito mode then follow my answer in here to enable it.

Can use sikuli(GUI Automation tool) to click on browser addon.

Imports needed:

    import org.sikuli.script.Pattern;
    import org.sikuli.script.Screen;

Script:

    Pattern addon=new Pattern("D:\\My Files\\Addon.jpg");  //image of the addon must be given as a pattern for identifying that on the browser/webpage
    Screen s=new Screen();
    s.hover(addon);
    s.click(addon);
