Property Value

A string with command-line parameters to be applied upon the next launch of the browser.

Example

The code below demonstrates how to use the RunOptions property to start Google Chrome with the --allow-file-access-from-files command-line key. This key should be specified when testing local pages containing HTML frames.

JavaScript, JScript

function SetChromeRunOptions()
{
  // Specify the required command-line key
  Browsers.Item("chrome").RunOptions = "--allow-file-access-from-files";
  Browsers.Item("chrome").Run();
  // Perform the test
  ...
}

Python

def SetChromeRunOptions():
  # Specify the required command-line key
  Browsers.Item["chrome"].RunOptions = "--allow-file-access-from-files"; 
  Browsers.Item["chrome"].Run();
  # Perform the test
  # ...

VBScript

Sub SetChromeRunOptions
  ' Specify the required command-line key
  Browsers.Item("chrome").RunOptions = "--allow-file-access-from-files"
  Browsers.Item("chrome").Run
  ' Perform the test
  ...
End Sub

DelphiScript

procedure SetChromeRunOptions;
begin
  // Specify the required command-line key
  Browsers.Item('chrome').RunOptions := '--allow-file-access-from-files';
  Browsers.Item('chrome').Run;
  // Perform the test
  ...
end;

C++Script, C#Script

function SetChromeRunOptions()
{
  // Specify the required command-line key
  Browsers["Item"]("chrome")["RunOptions"] = "--allow-file-access-from-files";
  Browsers["Item"]("chrome")["Run"]();
  // Perform the test
  ...
}
