I am currently learning about Selenium and attempting to handle an authentication header that has been implemented on a website for security purposes. I am trying to access the site and send data via URL using Selenium, but due to the authentication requirement, I am facing difficulties. I have tested the code below, but unfortunately, it did not work as expected.
//Selenium-WebDriver Java Code for entering Username & Password as shown below:
driver.findElement(By.id("userID")).sendKeys("username");
driver.findElement(By.id("password")).sendKeys("pass");
driver.switchTo().alert().accept();
driver.switchTo().defaultContent();*/
//self.headers = { "Authorization": "Basic xyz=" };
/* driver.switchTo().window("Authentication Required");
driver.findElement(By.id("userID")).sendKeys("username");
driver.findElement(By.id("password")).sendKeys("pass");*/
//selenium.start("addCustomRequestHeader=true");
//selenium.windowMaximize();
//selenium.addCustomRequestHeader( "Authorization","Basic "+"xyx=" );
Any assistance or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.
