HTTP basic authentication URL with “@” in password

We can do HTTP basic authentication URL with @ in password. We have to pass the credentials appended with the URL. The username and password must be added with the format − https://username:password@URL.

Let us make an attempt to handle the below browser authentication.

Once the User Name and Password are entered correctly and the OK button is clicked, we should be navigated to the actual page with the text Congratulations! You must have the proper credentials.

Syntax

https://username:password@URL https://admin:admin@the-internet.herokuapp.com/basic_auth

Here, the username and password value is admin.

URL is www.the-internet.herokuapp.com/basic_auth

Example

 import org.openqa.selenium.By; import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver; import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement; import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver; public class BrwAuthnPopup{    public static void main(String[] args) {       System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver",          "C:\Users\ghs6kor\Desktop\Java\chromedriver.exe");       WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();       String a = "admin";       // appending username, password with URL       String s = "https://" + a + ":" + a + "@" +       "the-internet.herokuapp.com/basic_auth";       driver.get(s);       // identify text       String m = driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("p")).getText();       System.out.println("Text is: " + m);       driver.close();    } }

Output
