To open chrome console:
var inSim = new WindowsInput.InputSimulator()
inSim.Keyboard.KeyDown(WindowsInput.Native.VirtualKeyCode.LCONTROL);
inSim.Keyboard.KeyDown(WindowsInput.Native.VirtualKeyCode.LSHIFT);
inSim.Keyboard.KeyPress(WindowsInput.Native.VirtualKeyCode.VK_J);
inSim.Keyboard.KeyUp(WindowsInput.Native.VirtualKeyCode.LSHIFT);
inSim.Keyboard.KeyUp(WindowsInput.Native.VirtualKeyCode.LCONTROL);
- What you can do: take a snapshot of the browser (including the opened console).
- What you cannot do: use the
webDriver
(it will crash the test, but if you close the console, the same way you opened it, you will be able to continue) - Why: selenium needs an exclusive connection to DevTools.
Notice - some OS have strict input rules and might prevent the inputSimulator from working when the computer is locked or when you are running this code in a machine which has no keyboard connected to it (a server that is handled remotely)
hope this helps...
