Introduction
In this article, we will explore how to configure application pools in Microsoft Edge using Puppeteer, a popular Node.js library for automating web browsers. Specifically, we will cover the steps to launch Microsoft Edge and handle website prompts for two different websites.
Prerequisites
To follow this guide, ensure you have the following prerequisites installed:
- Node.js (https://nodejs.org/en/download/)
- Microsoft Edge
- Puppeteer package:
npm install puppeteer
Launching Microsoft Edge with Puppeteer
To launch Microsoft Edge using Puppeteer, we need to create a new JavaScript file and write the necessary code. Here's an example:
const puppeteer = require('puppeteer');
async function launchEdge() {
const launchOptions = {
args: ['--no-sandbox'],
executablePath: 'C:/Program Files (x86)/Microsoft/Edge/Application/msedge.exe',
};
const browser = await puppeteer.launch(launchOptions);
return browser;
}
launchEdge().then((browser) => {
// Continue with your tests here
}).catch((err) => {
console.error(err);
});
Handling Website Prompts
To handle website prompts in Microsoft Edge using Puppeteer, we need to use the page.evaluate() function. Here's an example:
const page = await browser.newPage();
await page.goto('https://example.com');
await page.evaluate((message) => {
const confirmButton = document.querySelector('button[type="button"]');
confirmButton.click();
}, 'someMessage');
Configuring Application Pool for Two Websites
To configure application pool for two websites in Microsoft Edge using Puppeteer, we need to modify the launch options to open multiple browser instances:
const puppeteer = require('puppeteer');
async function launchEdges() {
const launchOptions = {
args: ['--no-sandbox'],
executablePath: 'C:/Program Files (x86)/Microsoft/Edge/Application/msedge.exe',
};
const browsers = await Promise.all([
puppeteer.launch(launchOptions),
puppeteer.launch(launchOptions),
]);
return browsers;
}
launchEdges().then((browsers) => {
// Continue with your tests here
}).catch((err) => {
console.error(err);
});
Handling Website Prompts for Two Websites
To handle website prompts for two websites, we need to modify the page.evaluate() function to accept a page number as an argument:
const page1 = await browsers[0].newPage();
await page1.goto('https://website1.com');
const page2 = await browsers[1].newPage();
await page2.goto('https://website2.com');
async function handlePrompt(message, pageNumber) {
const confirmButton = document.querySelector('button[type="button"]');
await pageNumber === 1
? confirmButton.click()
: confirmButton.nextElementSibling.click();
}
await Promise.all([
page1.evaluate((message, pageNumber) => handlePrompt(message, 1)),
page2.evaluate((message, pageNumber) => handlePrompt(message, 2)),
]);
