Disable cookies in a browser

[testingzeal]

There is a need for me to disable cookies and run the tests using webdriver.

Did any one tried this? 

Please let me know if there is a way to do this.

Give a try to set the preference of "network.cookie.cookieBehavior" to 2 when launching the FF instance.

Or configure FF profile with that already set and launch FF with that profile.

What about IE, can you just preconfigure the IE settings to disable cookies and then launch IE WebDriver and it will take those settings?

Same with Safari, like IE? And Chrome, has settings or profile similar to FF?

I believe this can be used for chrome : http://peter.sh/experiments/chromium-command-line-switches/#disable-restore-session-state

Krishnan,

I never used chrome switches,Is this right way?

DesiredCapabilities capabilities = DesiredCapabilities.chrome();

capabilities.setCapability("chrome.binary", "disable-restore-session-state ");

WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(capabilities);
