Starting ChromeDriver in Verbose mode - Node / JS

Question

I'm attempting to update 'node-huxley' to start Chrome Web driver in verbose mode, to hopefully avoid the issues caused by upgrading to OSX Mavericks.

The code in question is as follows:

browser = webdriver.Capabilities.chrome();

driver = new webdriver.Builder()
    .usingServer(serverUrl)
    .withCapabilities(browser)
    .build();

I'm struggling to find documentation on how to add command arguments ('--verbose') to the Chrome Driver.

Answer 1

You can start chromedriver in verbose mode by doing the following:

cd <location of chromedriver>

mv chromedriver chromedriversilent

cat <<EOF>chromedriver
echo "running chromedriversilent --verbose $*"
\$(dirname \$0)/chromedriversilent --verbose $*
EOF

chmod +x chromedriver

open chromedriver
