webdriver - setting request headers in selenium

I'm attempting to set the request header 'Referer' to spoof a request coming from another site. We need the ability test that a specific referrer is used, which returns a specific form to the user, otherwise an alternative form is given.

I can do this within poltergeist by:

page.driver.headers = {"Referer" => referer_string}

but I can't find the equivalent functionality for the selemium driver.

How can I set request headers in the capybara selenium driver?

See Question&Answers more detail:os

Webdriver doesn't contain an API to do it. See issue 141 from Selenium tracker for more info. The title of the issue says that it's about response headers but it was decided that Selenium won't contain API for request headers in scope of this issue. Several issues about adding API to set request headers have been marked as duplicates: first, second, third.

Here are a couple of possibilities that I can propose:

  1. Use another driver/library instead of selenium
  2. Write a browser-specific plugin (or find an existing one) that allows you to add header for request.
  3. Use browsermob-proxy or some other proxy.

I'd go with option 3 in most of cases. It's not hard.

Note that Ghostdriver has an API for it but it's not supported by other drivers.
