msedge chromium headless very chatty, where is the options
Where can I find the settings to make msedgedriver.exe less chatty in headless mode? is it compiled in debug mode? Really like to turn it off.
I use the following driver settings with python:
elif os.environ['WEBDRIVER'] == 'Edge':
options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
options.add_argument('--disable-infobars')
options.binary_location = "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft\\Edge\\Application\\msedge.exe"
driver = webdriver.Chrome(options=options, executable_path="msedgedriver.exe")
elif os.environ['WEBDRIVER'] == 'EdgeHeadless':
options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
options.add_argument('--headless')
options.binary_location = "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft\\Edge\\Application\\msedge.exe"
driver = webdriver.Chrome(options=options, executable_path="msedgedriver.exe")
here is the output, the first is edge chromium non headless, while the 2nd is edge chromium headless

mortenb123 thanks for the details. I'm glad to hear that it works in the Canary builds. The issue you are seeing is likely due to unfortunate timing of the Selenium 4 release and our Stable version of Edge.
This issue should go away naturally with the next Stable release.

mortenb123 hello there, thanks for the details of your issue. I am not seeing this much noise when I run Edge via the MSEdgeDriver.exe and use the EdgeOptions() and EdgeDriver() classes.
Can you try using those instead of ChromeDriver() for this?

Thanksjohnjansen
Using the canary browser v81.0.401.0 with the latest canary driver worked fine, I was using the follwing in stable:
"msedge": { "webdriverver": "79.0.313.0", "path": "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft\\Edge\\Application\\msedge.exe", "webdriverpath": "C:\\SharedArea\\drivers\\msedgedriver.exe", "webdriver": "msedgedriver.exe", "check": true, "ver": "79.0.309.68" }I'm not completely sure about the versioning some need to match the 3 first tuples, but others work.
Chrome is using to the first 2 tuples, while Firefox and Opera does not have any rules, just testing and appending a check=true if they work.
