I want to get rid of the message "Chrome is controlled by automated software", as found

See the following post for how to https://forum.katalon.com/t/chrome-is-being-controlled-by-automated-test-software-how-to-stop-it/122343

See https://help.applitools.com/hc/en-us/articles/360007189411--Chrome-is-being-controlled-by-automated-test-software-notification 1

In short, we can specify an option to ChromeDriver programatically;

ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
options.setExperimentalOption("excludeSwitches", new String[]{"enable-automation"});
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(options);

v0.7.2 supported enable-automation option

The default configuration should NOT include the enable-automation.

The enable-automation option is one way. You can not bring it off. So it is a bad idea to set it on by default.
