Getting Console.Log Output from Chrome with Selenium Python API Bindings

Getting console.log output from Chrome with Selenium Python API bindings

Ok, finally figured it out:

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.desired_capabilities import DesiredCapabilities

# enable browser logging
d = DesiredCapabilities.CHROME
d['loggingPrefs'] = { 'browser':'ALL' }
driver = webdriver.Chrome(desired_capabilities=d)

# load the desired webpage
driver.get('http://foo.com')

# print messages
for entry in driver.get_log('browser'):
    print(entry)

Entries whose source field equals 'console-api' correspond to console messages, and the message itself is stored in the message field.

Starting from chromedriver, 75.0.3770.8, you have to use goog:loggingPrefs instead of loggingPrefs:

d['goog:loggingPrefs'] = { 'browser':'ALL' }

Getting chrome performance and tracing logs

Performance logs are disabled by default.

To enable it, use DesiredCapabilities and configure loggingPrefs:

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.desired_capabilities import DesiredCapabilities

caps = DesiredCapabilities.CHROME
 #as per latest docs
caps['goog:loggingPrefs'] = {'performance': 'ALL'}
driver = webdriver.Chrome(desired_capabilities=caps)

driver.get('https://stackoverflow.com')

for entry in driver.get_log('performance'):
    print(entry)

driver.quit()

This results into a bunch of tracing log entries printed on the console:

{u'timestamp': 1419487459178, u'message': u'{"message":{"method":"Network.responseReceived","params":{"frameId":"2105.1","loaderId":"2105.2","requestId":"2105.1","response":{"connectionId":0,"connectionReused":false,"encodedDataLength":-1,"fromDiskCache":false,"fromServiceWorker":false,"headers":{"Access-Control-Allow-Origin":"*","Content-Type":"text/plain;charset=US-ASCII"},"mimeType":"text/plain","status":200,"statusText":"OK","url":"data:,"},"timestamp":1419487458.92934,"type":"Document"}},"webview":"2C66E956-A48B-456B-8A4E-1022F699AA92"}', u'level': u'INFO'}
{u'timestamp': 1419487459178, u'message': u'{"message":{"method":"Network.loadingFinished","params":{"encodedDataLength":0,"requestId":"2105.1","timestamp":1419487458.92936}},"webview":"2C66E956-A48B-456B-8A4E-1022F699AA92"}', u'level': u'INFO'}
{u'timestamp': 1419487459178, u'message': u'{"message":{"method":"Page.frameNavigated","params":{"frame":{"id":"2105.1","loaderId":"2105.2","mimeType":"text/plain","securityOrigin":"://","url":"data:,"}}},"webview":"2C66E956-A48B-456B-8A4E-1022F699AA92"}', u'level': u'INFO'}
...

Capturing browser logs with Selenium WebDriver using Java

I assume it is something in the lines of:

import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.logging.LogEntries;
import org.openqa.selenium.logging.LogEntry;
import org.openqa.selenium.logging.LogType;
import org.openqa.selenium.logging.LoggingPreferences;
import org.openqa.selenium.remote.CapabilityType;
import org.openqa.selenium.remote.DesiredCapabilities;
import org.testng.annotations.AfterMethod;
import org.testng.annotations.BeforeMethod;
import org.testng.annotations.Test;

public class ChromeConsoleLogging {
    private WebDriver driver;

    @BeforeMethod
    public void setUp() {
        System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "c:\\path\\to\\chromedriver.exe");        
        DesiredCapabilities caps = DesiredCapabilities.chrome();
        LoggingPreferences logPrefs = new LoggingPreferences();
        logPrefs.enable(LogType.BROWSER, Level.ALL);
        caps.setCapability(CapabilityType.LOGGING_PREFS, logPrefs);
        driver = new ChromeDriver(caps);
    }

    @AfterMethod
    public void tearDown() {
        driver.quit();
    }

    public void analyzeLog() {
        LogEntries logEntries = driver.manage().logs().get(LogType.BROWSER);
        for (LogEntry entry : logEntries) {
            System.out.println(new Date(entry.getTimestamp()) + " " + entry.getLevel() + " " + entry.getMessage());
            //do something useful with the data
        }
    }

    @Test
    public void testMethod() {
        driver.get("http://mypage.com");
        //do something on page
        analyzeLog();
    }
}
