I use xpather and "CSS and Xpath Checker" extentions in Chrome to identify and select elements when creating scripts
because my app does not load in firefox (only Chrome and I.E. are supported)
However when running the test these extensions are not loaded in Chrome.
How can I make Webdriver load these extentions when running scripts.
I've seached the forum but all the examples refers to loading .crx files.
These two extensions do not hava a .crx extension.
Has anyone got speciic experience with these two extensions in Chrome.

You'd want to get the extension's CRX file following these methods:

The particular extension you refer to has source code available as well:


so you could also just get the source there and manually build the CRX file using the Chrome extensions - developer mode feature (using default / your own private key).

I've used your link to download the CRX files for both of my Chrome extensions.
I'm now able to load them using Chrome Options Addextensions.
Your help is very much appreciated.
