For Chrome I have this code :

    List<String> capabilityValue = new List<string>();
    capabilityValue.Add("--start-maximized");
    capabilities = DesiredCapabilities.Chrome();
    capabilities.SetCapability("chrome.switches", capabilityValue);
    capabilities.Platform = new Platform(platform);
    WebDriver driver = new WebDriver ("www.google.com", capabilities);

I try to replace chrome.switches with firefox.switches. For Mozilla Firefox this doesn't work.

Can anyone know how can I open site as maximized?

    I don't understand why some guys gave negative votes to this, the accepted answer has 4+ and the post 2k views already. So the replacement with `firefox.switches` was naive but the question utility remains. – Leo Gallucci Jan 17 '14 at 13:23

For Firefox use - 

driver.Manage().Window.Maximize();

You can check this link for more details - How do I maximize the browser window in Selenium WebDriver (Selenium 2) using C#?

  • Doesn't work for me .I receive an error message : Unexpected error . – Cr123 May 18 '12 at 08:50
  • @Cr123 upgrade your webdriver to the latest version. – Aleh Douhi May 18 '12 at 20:45
  • This actually works with Chrome too as of now. If you get `Unexpected error` upgrade selenium-webdriver to latest. FYI the javascript syntax for this is `browser.manage().window().maximize();` – Leo Gallucci Jan 17 '14 at 13:20

Firefox doesn't have a command line parameter to open the window maximized but you could specify the window size explicitly instead. E.g. this should set window size to 800x600:

capabilityValue.Add("-width");
capabilityValue.Add("800");
capabilityValue.Add("-height");
capabilityValue.Add("600");

  • it works If I put driver.Manage().Window.Size = new System.Drawing.Size(1152,864).But how to get max width and max height? – Cr123 May 18 '12 at 09:16
