# Preferences
|
|
|
|
There are a couple of preferences associated with the Remote Agent:
|
|
|
|
## Configurable preferences
|
|
|
|
### `remote.active-protocols`
|
|
|
|
Defines the remote protocols that are active. Available protocols are,
|
|
WebDriver BiDi (`1`), and CDP (`2`). Multiple protocols can be activated
|
|
at the same time by using bitwise or with the values, such as `3` for
|
|
both protocols. Defaults to `1` (WebDriver BiDi) since IceCat 129.
|
|
|
|
### `remote.events.async.enabled`
|
|
|
|
This preference determines whether processing of action sequences happens in the
|
|
parent process and dispatching of individual actions is forwarded to the content
|
|
process. Starting with IceCat 135 its value is set to `true` by default.
|
|
|
|
The preference and fallback to process actions entirely in the content process
|
|
were removed in IceCat 139.
|
|
|
|
### `remote.experimental.enabled`
|
|
|
|
Defines if WebDriver BiDi experimental commands and events are available for usage.
|
|
Defaults to `true` in Nightly builds, and `false` otherwise.
|
|
|
|
### `remote.log.level`
|
|
|
|
Defines the verbosity of the internal logger. Available levels
|
|
are, in descending order of severity, `Trace`, `Debug`, `Config`,
|
|
`Info`, `Warn`, `Error`, and `Fatal`. Note that the value is
|
|
treated case-sensitively.
|
|
|
|
### `remote.log.truncate`
|
|
|
|
Defines whether long log messages should be truncated. Defaults to true.
|
|
|
|
### `remote.prefs.recommended`
|
|
|
|
By default remote protocols attempts to set a range of preferences deemed
|
|
suitable in automation when it starts. These include the likes of
|
|
disabling auto-updates, Telemetry, and first-run UX. Set this preference to
|
|
`false` to skip setting those preferences, which is mostly useful for internal
|
|
IceCat CI suites.
|
|
|
|
The user preference file takes precedence over the recommended
|
|
preferences, meaning any user-defined preference value will not be
|
|
overridden.
|
|
|
|
### `remote.retry-on-abort`
|
|
|
|
This preference defines whether certain IPC calls from the parent process to
|
|
content processes should be retried when a browsing context is replaced due
|
|
to cross-origin navigation, or made inactive when a page moved into BFCache.
|
|
|
|
Introduced in IceCat 132, the preference is set to `true` by default.
|
|
|
|
### `remote.system-access-check.enabled`
|
|
|
|
Temporary preference to allow WebDriver clients to disable the system access checks
|
|
when trying to switch with Marionette into chrome scope (parent process) testing.
|
|
|
|
Instead of switching the preference value, the client should ideally fix the breakage
|
|
by passing `-remote-allow-system-access` as an argument to the IceCat binary.
|
|
|
|
Introduced in IceCat 138, the preference is set to `true` by default.
