How to resize Firefox window when Selenium is running?

Question

I am using Selenium Remote Control and I hate when it starts running the tests when the actual Firefox window is so small. I want it full screen so I can see what is happening. How can I make it so it loads full screen?

Answer 1

Try the windowMaximize command:

selenium.windowMaximize();

You can also set a specific width and height using the following command:

selenium.getEval("window.resizeTo(X, Y); window.moveTo(0,0);")

Where X is the width and Y is the height.

Answer 2

for Firefox: sel.key_press_native(122) (122 in the key code for F11)
