Extension summary

This is a technical extension to be used with web drivers like Selenium. It adds the so-needed functionality like providing response headers and response status code for requested urls. The available items go to Navigator object, under following properties:

navigator.requestHeaders = <array>; navigator.requestUrl = <string>; navigator.requestMethod = <string>; navigator.responseHeaders = <array>; navigator.responseStatusCode = <string>; navigator.responseStatusLine = <string>; navigator.responseUrl = <string>; navigator.responseMethod = <string>;

To get those values, you typically need to get them by running a javascript in a page context, and returning the result. In Selenium, it would look something like this:

var builder = new selenium.Builder().withCapabilities(selenium.Capabilities.chrome()); var options = new selenium_chrome.Options();
