Headless is not working for me

[Nikita Chavan]

Hi,

I am trying to make the test case headless so I used "--headless = new" chrome option as well. still After running the code chrome window is opening. Headless is not working for me.

Can someone help?

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.service import Service
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By

#headless mode
chrome_options = Options()
chrome_options.add_argument("--headless = new")
chrome_options.add_argument("--disable-gpu")
#Invoke Chrome browser
service_obj = Service(executable_path="C:/Users/nchavan/PycharmProjects/Python Testing RXO/RXO/chromedriver.exe")
driver = webdriver.Chrome(service=service_obj)

You are creating an `Options` object, but you don't use it when starting Chrome. Add `options=chrome_options` to the constructor.

Also, remove the spaces in the argument. (--headless=new)

"--headless = new"  ❌ (invalid argument)
  That extra space before and after = causes the Chrome driver to ignore the headless mode.

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.service import Service
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options

chrome_options = Options()
chrome_options.add_argument("--headless=new")
chrome_options.add_argument("--disable-gpu")

service_obj = Service(executable_path="C:/Users/nchavan/PycharmProjects/Python Testing RXO/RXO/chromedriver.exe")

driver = webdriver.Chrome(service=service_obj, options=chrome_options)

driver.get("https://example.com")
print(driver.title)
driver.quit()
