Cannot run tests in the Private mode in Firefox #1675

Bug

What is the current behavior?

When trying to launch Firefox with a Private mode flag, it opens two windows: one regular and one private. And tests run in the regular window.

What is the expected behavior?

One window should be opened and, more important, test should run in the Private window.

How would you reproduce the current behavior (if this is a bug)?

testcafe "firefox -private-window" tests/test.js

Provide the test code and the tested page URL (if applicable)

This happens the same way on my system. I'm passing --private-window (double dash), but the behavior is the same.

Hello @Vitalii4as,

Could you please clarify why it's necessary for you to run the test in Private mode?

Vitalii4as commented 3 weeks ago

Hi @PavelMor25. Our application supports validation of license key in the browser, some license information is stored on the client side in local storage. The local storage is cleared when the incognito window is closed. So, we show a warning message to the user when he/she tries to validate license key in incognito mode. We want to test that such a warning is shown and that we can detect that the user uses an incognito window. It works fine in chrome and edge but in firefox I get the behavior described in this issue.

@Vitalii4as, Could you please share more details on how the browser is being checked for incognito mode?

Vitalii4as commented 1 week ago

@PavelMor25 Sorry, not sure what you mean. We use this library to detect whether the incognito window is used. It works fine for our use cases. But I'm not sure how it can be related to this issue.
