This is a disappointment since the Chrome's headless mode achieves > 30% better time than the UI one. The headless mode of Mozilla Firefox performs 3.68% better than the UI version. PhantomJSDriver using (IWebDriver driver = new PhantomJSDriver()) The other headless driver PhantomJS delivers 34.92% better than the Chrome's headless mode. The headless mode of Chrome performs 30.97% better than the UI version. Using (IWebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(options)) Since Chrome 57 you have the headless argument: var options = new ChromeOptions() Sample code is as follows: from selenium import webdriverįrom import OptionsĬHROMEDRIVER_PATH = '/usr/bin/chromedriver'Ĭhrome_options.add_argument("-headless")Ĭhrome_options.add_argument("-window-size=%s" % WINDOW_SIZE)Ĭhrome_options.binary_location = CHROME_PATHĭriver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path=CHROMEDRIVER_PATH,ĭriver.get_screenshot_as_file("capture.png") Chrome has a completely headless version now which eliminates the need to use any third-party libraries to hide the UI window. Like everything else, browsers have also advanced. The initial answer was posted in 2014 and now we are at the cusp of 2018. # Now Firefox will run in a virtual display. Sample Selenium script in Python in a headless mode with PyVirtualDisplay: #!/usr/bin/env pythonĭisplay = Display(visible=0, size=(800, 600)) Then install PyVirtualDisplay from PyPI: pip install pyvirtualdisplay On Ubuntu, first install Xvfb: sudo apt-get install xvfb PyVirtualDisplay needs Xvfb as a dependency. If you are using Selenium web driver with Python, you can use PyVirtualDisplay, a Python wrapper for Xvfb and Xephyr.
