GEB v2.3.1 example project test fails with Chrome Version 73.0.3683.103 (Official Build) (64-bit)

[Beezer]

I just cloned GEB and tried to run the example as per the readme.

With Chrome this fails with a extension error.

I went there to lodge an issue but it said for usage errors to come to this site.

So when I follow the README:

I know there is a fix for it, which then reduces the capabilities by switching it off:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/43571119/loading-of-unpacked-extensions-is-disabled-by-the-administrator?rq=1

But that is hardly a cause for celebration.

Wondered if anyone thinks this should be in the issue tracker of the Geb project?

ext {
    // The drivers we want to use
    drivers = ["firefox", "chrome", "chromeHeadless"]

    ext {
        groovyVersion = '2.4.16'
        gebVersion = '2.3.1'
        seleniumVersion = '3.14.0'
        chromeDriverVersion = '73.0.3683.68'
        geckoDriverVersion = '0.24.0'
    }
}

thanks in advance.

This is not a Geb issue but an issue with setup on your machine so you did the right thing by writing here and not creating an issue in the tracker. 

As per the stackoverflow thread you linked to, you are getting the popup because an extension has not been loaded as it was disabled by the administrator in your organisation. To be honest I do not understand why you seem to have objections against applying the workaround by changing the code instantiating the driver in GebConfig.groovy of the example project to disable the automation extension. What are you expecting to happen otherwise?

Thanks,

Marcin
