How to remove "Chrome is being controlled by automated test software"

How can I remove this message by default?

I'm using Puppeteer, when chromium launches, it shows this message.

Solution

  • You can try

    puppeteer.launch({
  args: ['--disable-infobars']
})

    https://github.com/GoogleChrome/puppeteer/blob/master/docs/api.md#puppeteerlaunchoptions https://peter.sh/experiments/chromium-command-line-switches/#disable-infobars

    2020 UPDATE:

    This flag has been deprecated by chromium citing that its a security risk and "can be misused for malicious purposes"

    You can achieve the same effect by using:

    puppeteer.launch({
  ignoreDefaultArgs: ['--enable-automation']
})

    This however may have other side effects.
