I want to create a cookie using selenium. I have seen a method which supports this like selenium.createcookie(arg1,arg0), but I'm a bit confused about the arguments passed. Can anyone please give me an example?

createCookie ( nameValuePair,optionsString ) Create a new cookie whose path and domain are same with those of current page under test, unless you specified a path for this cookie explicitly.

Arguments:

  1. nameValuePair - name and value of the cookie in a format "name=value"

  2. optionsString - options for the cookie. Currently supported options include 'path' and 'max_age'. the optionsString's format is "path=/path/, max_age=60". The order of options are irrelevant, the unit of the value of 'max_age' is second.
