Load firefox extension

[sridharaiyer]

I want an ability to do something like this for firefox:

profile = webdriver.FirefoxProfile() profile.add_extension(extension='https_everywhere-2019.1.31-an+fx.xpi') driver = webdriver.Firefox(firefox_profile=profile)
I see that we can use the CLI option --extension-zip=XXX.crx for Chrome, but unfortunuately this extension for my Chromedriver does not work. I have a similar extension for firefox but just Seleniumbase to load it.

See https://github.com/seleniumbase/SeleniumBase/releases/tag/v1.55.1
There's a new method for loading a .xpi file:

self.install_addon(xpi_file)

For some reason, it must be done at run-time after the browser has already spun up, unlike Chrome extensions, which must be initialized before the web browser is launched. So, load your Chrome extensions on the command-line, and load your Firefox add-ons inside the tests.
