How to disable "Mark non-secure origins as non-secure" within selenium tests?

Question

I am running non http url inside of my tests (so migration to https wont be easy) and because of that I am getting an warning inside of browser.

How to disable "Non secure" warning inside of Chrome during selenium tests?

I've tried to play with arguments but nothing works

 args: [
                      'start-maximized',
                      'disable-webgl',
                      'blacklist-webgl',
                      'blacklist-accelerated-compositing',
                      'disable-accelerated-2d-canvas',
                      'disable-accelerated-compositing',
                      'disable-accelerated-layers',
                      'disable-accelerated-plugins',
                      'disable-accelerated-video',
                      'disable-accelerated-video-decode',
                      'disable-gpu',
                      'disable-infobars',
                      'test-type',
                      'disable-extensions',
                      'allow-running-insecure-content',
                      'disable-web-security',
                      'ignore-certificate-errors',
                      'ignore-gpu-blacklist',
                      'no-default-browser-check',
                      'no-first-run',
                      'disable-default-apps'
                  ]

The issue is that I need to resize windows to 420x800 but because of warning browser can't do that.

Can you update the question with the snapshot of the `Non secure` warning? — undetected Selenium, Jun 19 '19 at 07:51
Does [this discussion](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/56457778/chromedriver-err-ssl-protocol-error-despite-ignore-certificate-errors/56504940#56504940) helps you? — undetected Selenium, Jun 19 '19 at 07:58
@DebanjanB I saw it. It looks like a solution when you test https with self generated certificate, in my case its just http — Vova Bilyachat, Jun 19 '19 at 07:59

"Not Secure" SSL Error

As per Fix “Not Secure” SSL Error on Chrome Browser | Remove Warning with the release of Chrome 68, Google started showing all the HTTP sites as Not Secure on Chrome Browser.

Treatment of HTTP pages

HTTP_warning

This feature can be turned On / Off by accessing the page at chrome://flags/#enable-mark-http-as and setting the following attribute:

Mark non-secure origins as non-secure: Changes the UI treatment for HTTP pages on Mac, Windows, Linux, Chrome OS, Android
- Default
- Enabled
- Enabled (mark as actively dangerous)
- Enabled (mark with a Non Secure warning and dangerous on form edits)
- Disabled

Using Selenium to disable this feature you need to use the ChromeOption --allow-running-insecure-content as follows:

Python:

chrome_options = webdriver.ChromeOptions() 
chrome_options.add_argument("start-maximized")
chrome_options.add_argument('disable-infobars')
chrome_options.add_argument('--allow-running-insecure-content')
driver = webdriver.Chrome(chrome_options=chrome_options, executable_path=r'C:\Utility\BrowserDrivers\chromedriver.exe')
driver.get("http://www.legislation.vic.gov.au/")

Its not working, and if you see in original question I do have 'allow-running-insecure-content', — Vova Bilyachat, Jun 20 '19 at 00:05

This does not work for chrome on android devices. It's a bad idea for companies to tell users what and what they can not look at. Tech giants like Google have gone too far and the government is letting it happen.
