Using specific Chrome profile

See original GitHub issue

Working on docs for authenticated usages of LH (#1418). Want to make sure I’m not overlooking something - unclear if this is meant to work already.

Looks like our usage of chrome-launcher always makes a new user data dir, and thus a new profile, and deletes it every run. To actually use an existing profile I think we need to pass “userDataDir: false” to ChromeLauncher.launch.

Was it expected that just using chrome-flags="--profile-directory=..." would work? With existing LH, I think you’d need to spin up Chrome yourself and pass a port to LH?
