Allow passing flags for browsers

See original GitHub issue

Feature Request

What is the current behavior?

Flags are not passed to the opening browser.

What is the expected behavior?

The browser on which the test will run, should receive the flags

How would you reproduce the current behavior (if this is a bug)?

I’m trying to use Service Workers in the page, but they require localhost or https and testcafe is currently redirecting the browser to a server of itself (therefore, not https neither localhost). I could send a couple flags to the browser and it would not be a problem:

testcafe chrome --ignore-certificate-errors --unsafely-treat-insecure-origin-as-secure=* tests/

Specify your

operating system: MacOS Sierra
testcafe version: 0.9.0
node.js version: 4.2.6

I believe it’s worth implementing on our side: add ability to specify browser parameters for aliases. But command line syntax requires some bikeshedding. Maybe something like:

testcafe "chrome --ignore-certificate-errors",firefox tests/

Thank you @inikulin , I’m using it and it is working. I believe I will manage to have it published pretty soon 😃 Will keep you up to date to check on ways (still working on it) to test service workers.
