I need to allow the geo location during my karate web automation test. I was going through this documentation https://github.com/intuit/karate/tree/master/karate-core It has information on handling dialog boxes and popup but they don't seem to be working for the geo location pop up

Thanks to the comment above, looks like for Chrome you can use the addOptions to pass disable-geolocation:

* configure driver = { type: 'chrome', addOptions: [`disable-geolocation`] }

I guess it would be similar for other browsers. If needed please consider submitting a PR to the project.

Also note that we are working on Karate Robot that may be able to solve this in the future.

    Thanks Peter. I used that with below config and it works fine. `* configure driverTarget = { docker: 'ptrthomas/karate-chrome', showDriverLog: true , addOptions: [ 'disable-geolocation' ]}` – salilgupta12 May 20 '20 at 11:38
  • I tried but it shows me this message. ' Thanks for the feedback! Votes cast by those with less than 15 reputation are recorded, but do not change the publicly displayed post score. ' – salilgupta12 May 20 '20 at 12:55
  • don't bother then – Peter Thomas May 20 '20 at 12:56
  • Can something like this be used to escape the geo location pop up, ` * input('body', Key.ESCAPE)` , I was going through these articles 1. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/60951153/karate-ui-automation-how-to-press-key-without-necessity-to-be-in-input-field 2. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/60948829/karate-ui-automation-how-to-close-location-allowance-window-chrome and seems like both the problems can be solved in case KEY.ESCAPE work in karate script on full body ? – salilgupta12 Jul 22 '20 at 13:50
  • @salilgupta12 try it and see, and update so we can all learn from you – Peter Thomas Jul 22 '20 at 14:12
  • Thanks for your prompt response. Actually I had tried and as it did not work, hence I thought I will cross check with you in case I am missing something here. I have tried manually, pressing escape makes the geo location pop up go away but in script using ` * input('body', Key.ESCAPE)` does not seem working, so any suggestions on this? – salilgupta12 Jul 22 '20 at 14:35
  • try this: https://stackoverflow.com/a/60800181/143475 - but do try and submit an example for us to analyze and make any fixes to the core framework if needed: https://github.com/intuit/karate/wiki/How-to-Submit-an-Issue – Peter Thomas Jul 22 '20 at 15:33
