unable to Pass FirefoxProfile parameter In webdriver to use preferences to download file

问题

public class download {
    public static WebDriver driver;

    public static void main(String[] args) throws InterruptedException {

        System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver", "/home/ranjith/Downloads/geckodriver");
        //driver = new FirefoxDriver();

        FirefoxProfile profile = new FirefoxProfile();

        profile.setPreference("browser.download.dir", "/home/ranjith/Downloads");
        profile.setPreference("browser.download.folderList", 2);

        profile.setPreference("browser.helperApps.neverAsk.saveToDisk", "application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet");        
        profile.setPreference( "browser.download.manager.showWhenStarting", false );
        profile.setPreference( "pdfjs.disabled", true );

        driver = new FirefoxDriver(profile); 

        driver.get("http://toolsqa.com/automation-practice-form/");
        driver.findElement(By.linkText("Test File to Download")).click();

        Thread.sleep(5000);

        //driver.close();
    }
}

asking to remove argument profile to match FirefoxDriver in eclipse can you help to sort out this problem.

Error is thrown on this line

driver = new FirefoxDriver(profile);

回答1:

As per the Selenium JavaDoc of FirefoxDriver Class, FirefoxDriver(profile) method is no more supported as a valid Constructor.

Instead it is being encouraged to use the FirefoxOptions Class which extends MutableCapabilities i.e. org.openqa.selenium.MutableCapabilities

So as you are creating a new FirefoxProfile on each execution through driver = new FirefoxDriver(profile);, you have to use the setProfile() method from the FirefoxOptions Class which is defined as :

public FirefoxOptions setProfile(FirefoxProfile profile)

Your code block will be :

System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver", "/home/ranjith/Downloads/geckodriver");
FirefoxProfile profile = new FirefoxProfile();
profile.setPreference("browser.download.dir", "/home/ranjith/Downloads");
profile.setPreference("browser.download.folderList", 2);
profile.setPreference("browser.helperApps.neverAsk.saveToDisk", "application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet");        
profile.setPreference( "browser.download.manager.showWhenStarting", false );
profile.setPreference( "pdfjs.disabled", true );
FirefoxOptions opt = new FirefoxOptions();
opt.setProfile(profile);
driver = new FirefoxDriver(opt);
