Hi BJ,
I think this issue is not related with private browsing session. The issue is when using safaridriver, the WebExtension can't obtain all the cookies using this API https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/API/cookies/getAll.

These cookies are not set before or after the test, these cookies are set from the server after opening the web page.
