ChromeDriver - Disable developer mode extensions pop up on Selenium WebDriver automation

Question

I'm having the following issue: When I'm running my automation tests, I keep getting the following alert "Disable Developer Mode Extension" in Chrome.

Is there a way to remove/disable this?. It is a blocker for me as it is making me fail some tests.

Thanks in advance

Answer 1

Create an object of ChromeOptions class

ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();

 Add a parameter which will disable the extension

options.addArguments("--disable-extensions");

 Start the chrome session

WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(options);

Hope this helps!
