Deleting all cookies
With a WebDriver server running on localhost:4444, assume an active session has one or more cookies set. To delete them all, use the following command, replacing ID with the sessionId from the New Session response:
curl -i -X DELETE http://localhost:4444/session/ID/cookie
The server responds with a null value to indicate success:
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
content-type: application/json; charset=utf-8
{"value":null}
