How to enable Adobe Flash in FireFox Selenium webdriver with FirefoxProfile

Question

I need an automated way to enable Flash in the Firefox Selenium webdriver without user interaction.

I have tried:

FirefoxProfile profile = new FirefoxProfile();
//As 0 is to disable, I used 1. I don"t know what to use.
profile.setPreference("plugin.state.flash", 1);
WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver(profile);

But this still requires me to click "Allow".

This is shown all the time, even with the code above

Answer 1

I found the solution myself.

And to enable it in "JAVA", Just change the false to true.

profile.setPreference("dom.ipc.plugins.enabled.libflashplayer.so","true");

And it works :)

Answer 2

This didn't work for me: profile.setPreference("dom.ipc.plugins.enabled.libflashplayer.so","true");

Instead I used: profile.setPreference("plugin.state.flash", 2);

I presume the "2" also activates the plugin.
