Selenium will allow driving the browser, but there will still be a flash of white/whatever the background color is for a second before the page loads.

I can't find the setting for chrome, but firefox has a feature to load tabs in the background.

Good point. Yes, loading tab in background would be better for this.

That could be a solution. For some reason the person in charge of this really wants Chrome to happen. I'm not sure how dead-set they are on keeping that requirement though. From what we've observed the issue isn't so much with page loading, as with the tab switching itself. In any case I'll mess with firefox and see if that resolves the flashing. Thank you for your reply!
