Chrome Webdriver on Mac not opening in foreground

[Alex E]

Hi all, I've got a pretty basic selenium script (python) that launches a chrome browser:

web_driver = webdriver.Chrome(chrome_options=chromeOptions)

web_driver.maximize_window()

web_driver.get("http://stage.mysite.com/login")

I run the test via py.test and PyCharm. I run the code on a windows machine and the browser window pops into the foreground as usual, so I can watch the automation run. 

But on my Mac, OS X El Capitan, same PyCharm version, when I run the same code, the browser launches in the background, so I have to go the dock and bring it manually to the foreground.

No idea if this is a El Capitan issue, a PyCharm issue, etc. Any ideas?? Many thanks

Alex - I've seen the same on my Mac at home, using Python as well as Robot Framework. Same behavior on either Mavericks or El Capitan (just upgraded). Let me know if you find a solution!
