The ability to open Chrome or other browsers in a private session like Incognito mode. #914

🚀 Feature Proposal

Ability to run tests in a private browser like Chrome from Selenium IDE.

Motivation

I need my companies application to run from the login screen, instead of automatically logging in through AD.

Example

When I run a Flow through MS Power Automate, I can build the test from my own personal account, but when I actually run the flow, it runs it in a "private" session and prompts me to log in. If I was able to build the test from an incognito window I could login to the account I need in the test, and it would work in my Power Automate flow.

Since Selenium IDE is currently a browser extension, it shares the same user session as the rest of the browser. Offering icognito mode would help this but only solve part of the problem since all icognito mode windows share a session. The ideal scenario is for every browser to have its own pristine session, created on launch and destroyed on teardown (e.g., as Selenium WebDriver does) which is on the roadmap.

This feature is required. As i am opening and site is auto authenticated due to which flow is getting failed.
