How to handle proxy authentication using Selenium Webdriver

Answer 1

Hi Rajat, you can set HTTP proxy with Selenium Webdriver using this code snippet:

import org.openqa.selenium.Proxy;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.remote.CapabilityType;
import org.openqa.selenium.remote.DesiredCapabilities;

public class ProxyDemo {

 public static void main(String[] args) {


  // Create proxy class object
  Proxy p=new Proxy();


  // Set HTTP Port to 7777
  p.setHttpProxy("localhost:7777");

  // Create desired Capability object
  DesiredCapabilities cap=new DesiredCapabilities();


  // Pass proxy object p
  cap.setCapability(CapabilityType.PROXY, p);


  // Open  firefox browser
  WebDriver driver=new FirefoxDriver(cap);

  // write your normal automation script here

 }


}
