Need to allow geolocation in chrome and firefox (running in browserstack)

[Jose Sanchez]

So I have this case where I need to test a geolocation service and I need to give browser permission to access to my location, when I run the tests a popup or notification shows up. I need to set geo location permission to enabled or something. How can I do this? (beware I need to test this in chrome and firefox running in browserstack)

Thanks

Hi,

If you get a pop up everytime you run the tests, just add .acceptAlert() when the pop up appears. This applies only if there is a pop up with Yes and No OR Ok and Cancel OR Accept and Decline etc buttons on it.

You can find the method here - http://nightwatchjs.org/api#acceptAlert

Thanks & Regards,

Simon

Thanks for your answer Simon, but that doesn't work because is a pop from the browser and not from the website.

Yes it should work.

I tried the same site just to check but i did not get the pop up while the test ran. The geo location was automatically enabled and it displayed my current location.

Whereas if i manually navigate to the site on another chrome browser window i get the popup. Weird.

May be selenium auto handles it.

Thanks & Regards,

Simon

Well, my selenium doesn't handle it then. I need a way to tell selenium to handle but for now I don't know how.
