I'd like to use Selenium IDE to automate web app instructional videos and need to turn off the 'Selenium IDE' has started debugging this browser message that appears which will impact the video recording that occurs.

Selenium IDE has started debugging this browser

Checking: chrome://flags/ and searching for debug I can see no relevant flag to alter.

Checking Google shows no solutions either.

If there's no way to turn this off I can probably delay the first step of the Selenium IDE test and then crop the first x seconds off the start of the video.

Help appreciated.

  • Try the --silent-debugger-extension-api flag when launching the browser – Martheen Aug 18 '23 at 07:12
  • Thanks, @Martheen, how do I create a new alias on the desktop as `/Applications/Google\ Chrome.app/Contents/MacOS/Google\ Chrome --silent-debugger-extension-api` (I'm new to macOS) – Steve Aug 18 '23 at 09:25

  • Add an answer if you like @Martheen – Steve Aug 30 '23 at 04:43
  • You're in a better position to add the answer, I would have to reboot to macOS just to verify the syntaxes and menu. – Martheen Aug 30 '23 at 05:56

From this answer:

One way to do this is with AppleScript.

Open AppleScript Editor (/Applications/Utilities/ScriptEditor) and type this in:

do shell script "open '/Applications/Google Chrome.app'  --args --explicitly-allowed-ports=6666"

Save it as an Application.
