This should help with testing on systems where command line flags cannot be easily specified (e.g. ChromeOS) and with avoiding mistakes spelling the command line flags.To opt into the changes (e.g. to test if your extension is affected), set chrome://flags/#cors-for-content-scripts to “Enabled” and chrome://flags/#force-empty-CORB-and-CORS-allowlist to “Enabled”:When testing an extension, look for the following error messages:or:Access to fetch at ' from origin ' has been blocked by CORS policy: No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource. If an opaque response serves your needs, set the request's mode to 'no-cors' to fetch the resource with CORS disabled.To opt out of the changes (e.g. to verify whether a bug goes away in the absence of CORS-for-content-scripts), set chrome://flags/#cors-for-content-scripts to “Disabled”.Best regards,Lukasz Anforowicz and the Chrome Security Architecture teamŁukasz Anforowiczunread,Aug 18, 2020, 11:27:01 AM8/18/20to Chromium Extensions, Łukasz Anforowicz, Charles Reis, Simeon Vincent, Devlin CroninHello,To further reduce disruption amid the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, we decided to proactively add to the allowlist all the potentially affected extensions that have been detected by Chrome telemetry in earlier Chrome versions. (This excludes extensions where authors have contacted us to indicate that they have migrated to the new security model. We thank those authors for their efforts and help in keeping Chrome users secure.) We still plan to deprecate the CORB/CORS

Note that since the keyword has a colon, it needs tohave quotes around it. Also note that using a service provider requires specifying their url (more onthat in the next section).browser_opts = {accept_insecure_certs: true, page_load_timeout: 100, script_timeout: 30}, page_load_strategy: :eager, exclude_switches: ['disable-popup-blocking'], args: ['start-fullscreen'], detach: true, 'sauce:options': {username: ENV['SAUCE_USERNAME'], access_key: ENV['SAUCE_ACCESS_KEY'], name: test_name, build: build_name, idle_timeout: 60}}b = Watir::Browser.new :chrome, options: browser_opts, url: ' Code is SentUse the :url or :service parameterYou can execute tests on your local machine, via a Selenium server (eitherlocally or on another machine), or via a service provider(like Sauce Labs or Browser Stack).To route commands via a server or service provider, simply pass in the location of theserver’s endpoint with the :url parameter:b = Watir::Browser.new :chrome, url: ' :url is not specified, Watir assumes you want to execute your tests locally.It will use Selenium code to determine theinstalled driver associated with the chosen Browser, start it up,and set it to be the recipient of the commands.To customize how the driver is started, use the :service parameter with these keywords: :path - the path of the driver; :port - the port the driver should start on :args - the list of command line switches to start the driver with.You can get a list of valid arguments for each driver via the command line with the –help argument:chromedriver --helpgeckodriver --helpmsedgedriver --helpsafaridriver --helpAn example of setting service arguments with the :service parameter is:service_opts = {path: '/path/to/drivers/chromedriver', port: '12345', args: ['--verbose', '--log-path=/path/to/logs/chromedriver.log']}b = Watir::Browser.new :chrome, service: service_optsHow the Code is SentUse the :http_client parameterThe WebDriver protocol is based on using an HTTP client to send JSON packets to various endpoints.As of Watir 6.19, we are using our own custom client: Watir:HttpClient.All it is doing differently is adding some header information toindicate to browser services that Watir is being used and including the version.If you are using your own HttpClient, considersubclassing the Watir one,

Just click the "Eject" button next to the mounted image in the Files app. Access TAR Files in Chrome OS TAR files are another widely used archive format in Linux, for software distribution and backup. You can also mount these in Files similar to ISO files. While GZipped TAR files are common, you still can't open them with Files. To do that on a Chromebook, you'll need to share the directory the file is in with Linux and use the tar command to extract it from the command line: tar -xvzf archive.tar Opening 7-Zip Files on Chromebooks 7-Zip files, or ".7z" files, are an alternative to standard ZIP files that offer an even higher level of compression, therefore, saving space. Chrome OS has long supported ZIP files, and 7Z files work in a similar way to the methods shown above. Just double-click and you can mount them. As with ISO and TAR files, 7-Zip files will be read-only as well. With More Local Storage Options, Chrome OS Is Becoming a Real Operating System Despite Chrome OS' focus on the cloud, with the ability to open ISO, TAR, and 7-Zip files locally, Chrome OS is becoming more than just a glorified browser the way it was in the early days. It's evolving into a viable alternative to Windows and macOS. These new file formats add to the ability to connect to optical and USB drives on a Chromebook.
