Preparing Chrome for First-Time Testing

Before running the first automated test, Chrome must be manually opened and prepared on the device to avoid pop-up interruptions and permission blocks.

Manual Preparation Steps:

1. Open the Chrome browser on the target device.

2. If prompted, accept or decline the following: - Welcome screen or initial setup wizard - “Set as default browser” prompt - Sync with Google Account prompt (select "No Thanks") - Terms and conditions (accept if shown) - Location, notifications, or other permissions (select "Deny" or "Allow" as needed)

3. Close any tutorials, tips, or popup cards that may appear.

4. Once the browser is fully ready and no prompts remain, exit Chrome.

✅ This ensures that the first automated test will execute smoothly without interruptions from UI dialogs or system pop-ups.
