How to get chrome browser full screen on a VM while executing test?

[testingzeal]

I am having this issue of browser being not full screen on VMS and causing script failures. I have used this maximize screen and Tool kit and both are not working.

When i login to VM i still see a small browser.

Just an FYI my VM window is full screen but browser is NOT full screen ( I remote desktop to VM thru laptop)

I am talking about CHROME Browser as we run scripts only on CHROME at this point.

here is what i have in code -

Both of them are not working meaning NOT opening browser that fits the screen.

public static WebDriver getChromeBrowser(OperatingSystem os)

throws MalformedURLException {

DesiredCapabilities capability = null;

capability = DesiredCapabilities.chrome();

Toolkit toolkit = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit();

int Width = (int) toolkit.getScreenSize().getWidth();

int Height = (int)toolkit.getScreenSize().getHeight();

 

ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();

options.addArguments(Arrays.asList("allow-running-insecure-content",

"ignore-certificate-errors"));

capability.setCapability(ChromeOptions.CAPABILITY, options);

capability.setCapability("chrome.switches", Arrays.asList("--incognito"));

capability.setBrowserName("chrome");

// capability.setPlatform(org.openqa.selenium.Platform.VISTA);

RunHost.runHost(capability);

Platform platform = setPlatform(os);

// OS setup

if (platform != null) {

capability.setPlatform(platform);

}

try {

RemoteWebDriver driver = new RemoteWebDriver(new URL(TestProperties

.getInstance().getProperty("hub.host", "")), capability);

driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(3, TimeUnit.SECONDS);

driver.manage().timeouts().pageLoadTimeout(60, TimeUnit.SECONDS);

driver.manage().timeouts().setScriptTimeout(60, TimeUnit.SECONDS);

//driver.manage().window().maximize();

driver.manage().window().setSize(new Dimension(Width,Height));

return driver;

} catch (Exception e) {

e.printStackTrace();

}

return null;

}

Have you tried ChromeOptions --start-maximized?

As Bill said, you need to start the browser using the --start-maximized, for example

case CHROME:

                    ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();

                    System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", Constant.vChromeBrowserPath);

                    options.addArguments("--test-type");

                    options.addArguments("--start-maximized");

                    options.addArguments("--lang=en");

                    driver = new ChromeDriver(options);
