Selenium webdriver ignores virtualdisplay under MacOS #99
Description
I'm running MacOs 15.3.1 with Python 3.9.6 and Quartz. If I execute the following code, the Firefox browser window shows on the normal screen and not in the virtual screen. In general the virtual screen exists as it is listed (ps -ef | grep Xvfb).
import time
from pyvirtualdisplay import Display
from selenium import webdriver
display = Display(visible=0, size=(800, 600))
display.start()
# now Firefox will run in a virtual display.
# you will not see the browser.
browser = webdriver.Firefox()
browser.get('http://www.google.com')
time.sleep(30)
browser.quit()
display.stop()
However, this works fine, The message box is opened in the virutal screen.
from easyprocess import EasyProcess
from pyvirtualdisplay import Display
with Display(backend="xvfb") as disp:
with EasyProcess(["xmessage", "hello"]) as proc:
proc.wait()
Is there anything I can do?
