How to set Profile in FirefoxDriver, using geckodriver.exe in C#

[Piyush Ratnam]

Hi,

I am working on Selenium using C#. Since we are using  latest selenium3.0 .dlls with GeckoDriver. But Unfortunately we are unable to load the URL properly due to 

"Trusted Certificated Exception" in Firefox Driver. For that previously I used this below option to set the Profile and it was working fine.

FirefoxProfile ffprofile = new FirefoxProfile(@"C:\Users\piyushrx\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox/Profiles\xq6onaon.Piyush");

driver = new FirefoxDriver(ffprofile);

But now, with the introduction of GeckoDriver, I am unable to do so. Here is why -

FirefoxDriverService service = FirefoxDriverService.CreateDefaultService(@"c:\CPP Files\", "geckodriver.exe");

driver = new FirefoxDriver(

service

);

Since, I can't pass to arguments in Firefoxdriver { i.e. 

FirefoxDriver(

service,

ffprofile 

); } which is no acceptable. 

Please let me know any solution for the same.

Here is the code that I use. I added the NuGet Package in Visual Studio so I don't need to specify the path of the geckodriver.exe.

case "Firefox":

                    if (Driver == null)

                    {

                        var driverService = FirefoxDriverService.CreateDefaultService();

                        driverService.HideCommandPromptWindow = true;

                        driverService.SuppressInitialDiagnosticInformation = true;

                        FirefoxOptions options = new FirefoxOptions();

                        options.AddAdditionalCapability(CapabilityType.AcceptSslCertificates, true);

                        driver = new FirefoxDriver(driverService, options, TimeSpan.FromSeconds(30));                        

                    }

                    break;
