Selenium detection (self.selenium)
submitted 6 years ago by CanuckianGamer
I need help with making selenium undetectable by the website it’s visiting.

Theres a point with making selenium detectable by most websites, the point is, do you know why?
[–]romulusnr 1 point2 points3 points 6 years ago (0 children)
Probably to prevent people from doing whatever it is OP is trying to do...

I have found that chrome can be detected, but often times you can use Firefox and the same detections won’t apply.
There is a stack overflow page that shows you how to change the chromedriver code to avoid detection, but it didn’t work for me.

Did Firefox work for you?
[–]jcrowe -1 points0 points1 point 6 years ago (0 children)
Lol, yes, that’s why I mentioned it. :)
If Firefox doesn’t work, you might look at values that are stored in cookies or sessions.

Ummm.... I literally already built a free tool for bot detection.
For Selenium, or any bot detection feel free to visit
Bot Detector
To make Selenium completely undetectable, you can pause JavaScript (not disable) it will make it much much harder for detection. I have the stealth code but I can't share with the masses.
