Browser testing in Chrome allows you to install the files of Chrome Extensions under development at browser startup.
※We've identified an issue where the Chrome extension doesn't install in local testing environments and are currently working on a fix.
Support target
Browser
Only Chrome is supported.
※ With Playwright: Chrome extensions are supported in Chrome 148 or later.
※ Without Playwright: Chrome extensions are NOT supported in Chrome 142 or later. If you need to use a Chrome extension, you must select Chrome version 141 or earlier (not "Latest").
File format
Only CRX files (with .crx extension) are supported.
Other limitations
You can install extensions and operate the extension list page (chrome://extensions), but you cannot operate from the extension icon displayed next to the address bar. It can only be used for testing functions that automatically change the behavior of web pages by installing extensions.
1. Upload files to MagicPod
Open the test run settings dialog and click Select file in the Chrome Extensions field on the Advanced settings tab.
A file selection/registration dialog will be displayed, so register the CRX file.
2. Select files to install
Select the files you want to install from the file list (multiple files can be selected).
Click OK and confirm that the selected file is displayed.
3. Launch your browser
Clicking Launch (Run new batch for batch run) will install the specified Chrome Extensions when the browser is launched.
