outofambit has just created a new issue for https://github.com/WebBluetoothCG/web-bluetooth: == Add requestDevice User Prompt BiDi Extension Section to Bluetooth Spec == ## Summary Specify a WebDriver BiDi extension that grants control over user prompts produced by the Web Bluetooth API. ## Location of spec prose Precedent exists in webdriver classic for specifying extensions in the relevant specification of the given technology rather than in the webdriver spec. The BTT Working Group has signaled that this is how it should work for BiDi. ## Primary Goal Allow a web developer to test their application using Web Bluetooth and automate responding to user prompts. ## How this is different from Permissions This extension will automate responding to a user prompt produced by `navigator.bluetooth.requestDevice`, which allows a user to choose a specific device to connect to. A side effect of `requestDevice` is granting permission to access a specific device. The WebDriver BiDi group is [already working on a general permissions extension](https://github.com/w3c/webdriver-bidi/issues/587). Automation of the browser powerful feature permissions required by `navigator.bluetooth.requestDevice` will be handled by that extension.
