We can write the profile information of the browser to the JSON file and later instantiate new browsers with the same profile.

FirefoxProfile class provides toJson() method to write profile information

FirefoxProfile class provides fromJson() method to retrieve profile information

FirefoxProfile profile = new FirefoxProfile();
profile.addExtension(
new File("src/test/resources/extensions/anyextenstion.file"));
String json = profile.toJson();
FirefoxOptions firefoxOptions = new FirefoxOptions();
firefoxOptions.setProfile(FirefoxProfile.fromJson(json));
FirefoxDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver(firefoxOptions);
