Reporting a bug

What is the current behavior?

After entering facebook login details and pressing login, and then a continue as "Profile_Name" page will show and then another page to confirm allow app to access facebook details.
And the issue is that the button to confirm is in the bottom of the page, testcafe is not able to click confirm this button because of the hammerhead bar that is being overlayed.

What is the expected behavior?

testcafe should be able to click the button

How would you reproduce the current behavior (if this is a bug)?

go to an app or site that uses facebook login and you have to register as first time user.

Provide the test code and the tested page URL (if applicable)

Tested page URL:

Hi @neilmatillano,
As far as I understood, you are trying to log in to your site via a Facebook account. This authentication creates a new browser window for its own purposes. Unfortunately, we do not support testing in multiple browser windows.
This issue is a duplicate of #912.

@LavrovArtem : it's a redirect is on the same window, it's not opening multiple browsers.
If you see the screenshot, the issue is that the button at the bottom is not reachable because of the hammerhead ui overlay. It's not able to select the control in testcafe

Hi @neilmatillano,
With TestCafe, page just loads a new window URL into the current tab instead of opening a new browser window. Unfortunately, the Facebook authentication works only with multiple windows. For example, without Testcafe, try to click the LOG IN WITH FACEBOOK button and close the tab with your site. In the new authentication window, you will encounter the same problems.

@neilmatillano
This is in our plans for the next releases but not we can't provide you with estimates. We let you know when we have any results.

@LavrovArtem : thanks for the reply. But is there a workaround I can do? Like remember my login in facebook prior to running the tests so I can just go directly to the main page? With or withour logging in?

Hi @neilmatillano,
I've tried to find a workaround but it didn’t exist. The result of searching is DevExpress/testcafe-hammerhead#1428.
