Webdriver - open browser on full screen - firefox

Question

I use Webdriver remotely with firefox.
I want to open my browser on full screen. The browser is opened on full screen, but immediately minimize and moves to other program which open on my OS. When I run my webdriver locally, the broser is opened on full screen, and doesn't minimize (it stays in the browser, and doesn't move to other program). I want that my browser would open on full screen, and stay in the browser, even if I run my test remottley.
The reason is that I used Java Robot, and I have to be in the browser in order that my action would be performed.
Thank you.

Answer 1

I don't know I really understood your question, but have a look at
driver.manage().window().maximize();

Especially handy when combining Sikuli and WebDriver, you need to be absolutely sure that as much as possible is visible on the screen.

((FirefoxDriver)driver).getKeyboard().pressKey(Keys.F11);
If you want to hide the header, please add this in the code.
FirefoxProfile profile = new FirefoxProfile();
profile.setPreference("browser.fullscreen.autohide",true);
profile.setPreference("browser.fullscreen.animateUp",0);
WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver(profile);
((FirefoxDriver)driver).getKeyboard().pressKey(Keys.F11);
driver.manage().window().setSize(new Dimension(1024, 768));
((JavascriptExecutor)driver).executeScript("window.focus()");
Robot robot;
try {
robot = new Robot();
robot.mouseMove(300,300);
robot.mouseMove(250,300);
} catch (AWTException e1) {
e1.printStackTrace();
}

Answer 3

Try this instead:
driver.manage().window().maximize();
((JavascriptExecutor) driver).executeScript("window.focus();");

Answer 4

In Python, you can do something like this. Make sure you use latest Selenium package.
driver = webdriver.Firefox()
driver.maximize_window()
driver.implicitly_wait(30)

Answer 5

in 2022:
from selenium import webdriver
f = webdriver.Firefox()
f.get('https://duckduckgo.com')
f.fullscreen_window()

Answer 6

I stumbled upon the same problem, but I found #Chen 's F11 profile not reliable enough, so I came up with my own solution: by simply making the browser window larger than the screen so the actual content matches up perfectly with the size of the screen.
WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
java.awt.Dimension screenSize = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getScreenSize();
Window window = driver.manage().window();
window.setPosition(new Point(-7, -87));
window.setSize(new Dimension((int) screenSize.getWidth() + 14, (int) screenSize.getHeight() + 94));
