[🐛 Bug]: Can't move a Selenium driver to VNC window

CalebKierum commented 1 year ago

What happened?

I have a selenium driver I created from SSH. To do this I had to create a fake display which I did via pyvirtualdisplay

from pyvirtualdisplay import Display
display = Display(visible=0, size=(1920, 1920))
display.start()
driver = webdriver.Chrome()

Now I can tell that driver is still awake because I can connect to it and get it to load pages with WebDriverWait.Remote() however when I go into vnc and write the following code I get the following crash. The window does not move into VNC nor can I see the Chromium instance in the task bar

driver.switch_to.window(webdriver.Chrome().current_window_handle)

How can we reproduce the issue?

Run this code where driver is a driver created in an SSH instance with pyvirtualdisplay

`driver.switch_to.window(webdriver.Chrome().current_window_handle)`

Relevant log output

A driver can only navigate to a window it has created.
