We can clear browser cookies in Selenium. The method deleteCookieNamed shall delete a cookie with a specific name. The cookie named is passed as an argument to the method. First, we will add a cookie, then get it and finally delete it.
Syntax
driver.manage().deleteCookieNamed("foo");Another method called the deleteAllCookies deletes all cookies from the existing domain. First, we will add the cookies, then get and delete them.
Syntax
driver.manage().deleteAllCookies();
Example
import java.util.Set;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;
import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;
public class DeleteCookiesViaName{
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver",
"C:\\Users\\ghs6kor\\Desktop\\Java\\chromedriver.exe");
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();
driver.get("https://www.tutorialspoint.com/index.htm");
// wait of 4 seconds
driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(4, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
// setting name and value for cookie
Cookie c = new Cookie("test", "selenium");
Cookie r = new Cookie("subject", "Java");
// cookie addition
driver.manage().addCookie(c);
driver.manage().addCookie(r);
// obtain the cookies
Set<Cookie> ck = driver.manage().getCookies();
//iterate through the cookies
for (Cookie cookie : ck) {
System.out.println("Cookie Name : "+cookie.getName());
System.out.println("Cookie Value : "+cookie.getValue());
// delete cookies by name
driver.manage().deleteCookieNamed(cookie.getName());
}
// obtain the cookies after delete
Set ch = driver.manage().getCookies();
System.out.println("Cookie count after delete: "+ch.size());
}
}Example
Code Implementation with deleteAllCookies.
import java.util.Set;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;
import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;
public class DeleteCookiesAll{
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver",
"C:\\Users\\ghs6kor\\Desktop\\Java\\chromedriver.exe");
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();
driver.get("https://www.tutorialspoint.com/index.htm");
// wait of 4 seconds
driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(4, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
// setting name and value for cookie
Cookie c = new Cookie("test", "selenium");
Cookie r = new Cookie("subject", "Java");
// cookie addition
driver.manage().addCookie(c);
driver.manage().addCookie(r);
// obtain the cookies
Set<Cookie> ck = driver.manage().getCookies();
//iterate through the cookies
for (Cookie cookie : ck) {
System.out.println("Cookie Name : "+cookie.getName());
System.out.println("Cookie Value : "+cookie.getValue());
}
// delete cookies
driver.manage().deleteAllCookies();
// obtain the cookies after delete
Set ch = driver.manage().getCookies();
System.out.println("Cookie count after delete: "+ch.size());
}
}Output
