Great to know all the updates. Kudos to you 👌👌🙌🙌👍👍
Glad that it was helpful...:)
Thank you very much. That' helped a lot
Thanks bro for helping us out on this.
Thank you! You are a lifesaver.
In other words, one browser for testing the application and other browser for using the application by end-users. What guarantee that something which works in "Chrome For Testing" browser works in normal "Chrome" browser!! Clients will not be pleased with this. Anyways, thank you for sharing these latest developments and explaining so nicely, as always. Cheers.
agree with you. As per chromium team, its a versioned binary that’s as close to regular Chrome as possible without negatively affecting the testing use case.
Always thankful to you Naveen for those updates..👍
most welcome :)
Awesome information, Thanks Naveen
Most welcome :)
Thanks for sharing this information..this is really helpful
thanks! Its Working for me in Python.
@Naveen Thank you for all the updates which makes us learn faster. I have a question will this have any preventative measure against malware/ransomware. How can this be safe with Vulnerability?
Thanks Naveen
Thank u naveen recently I faced same issue..really very useful
Glad that it was helpful...:)
Thank you Sir
Great article, thanks a lot Naveen. Can you please mention, if the WebDriverManager can still be useful?
Hey, this is really great information, thank you.
but can someone tell me what is the difference between chrome test and normal chrome? on their blog it says only about auto-update.
I see they have mentioned "for automated testing", does it actually add any value or something? can someone please explain?
Thank you
For my own scripts I just tossed the new chromedriver.exe into the executable path I had in my python script, works as before
Appreciate your explanation on what changed
Hi Naveen
I too have chrome 115 version in my system
I followed the same steps as mentioned
Getting an error message like "Google Chrome cannot read and write to its data directory" and I got the directory path
What can I do to proceed further
In Tosca tool we are facing issue ( Kernal Debugger Awakened) , this may be reason. Thank you 🙏 for your information.
Danke!
I am trying to do this with an Angular project using protractor, my chrome version is 119.0.6045.200 but the only available downloads on the new chromium dashboard is 120+. I downloaded the driver and now I get the error "session not created: This version of ChromeDriver only supports Chrome version 120
Current browser version is 119.0.6045.200"
I need a way to keep 119 as my "normal" chrome browser, and have the test point to an installed version of the 120 testing browser. I see that you did this in the video, but I am not sure how to do it with a Javascript in Angular application. It is pointing to my chrome version 119 in my programs files folder. (I don't want to use a hack where I simply update chrome to version 120 because it will update again at some point and be incompatible) I want to use a separate testing browser like you have done
Hello Naveen, it seems the mac arm version (the apple sillicon) is not supported? The file appears to be broken
One thing I missed doing is downloading the automation test browser. Just downloaded the driver and it worked as before.
Hey Naveen, For this new change how we can implement in page object model ?
Hi @navin, When i am trying open the file in the same way, i am getting an error as chrome for testing is damaged, cant opened...what to do ??
Hi Naveen
When i am trying to download chromedriver 115
Blank/Empty chrome driver ip file is getting downloaded for both win 31 &64
Do you have any solution for this?
Great video but what about grid and its nodes?
What approach will be for Android appium Automation? Do we have chrome for testing for Android device as well? Solution which was provided is more web oriented
So, to be clear, what do we have to do right now. Try to fix current automations ?
Wait for Chrome to release something ? Wait for Selenium 4.11 ?
I'm lost..
Saved my life! Thanks a lot!
Bro How can I configure it for maven like in maven we do not need to give the exact path for driver
doesn't work the arm64 version. It says "You can’t open the application “Google Chrome for Testing” because it may be damaged or incomplete."
How to configure chromedriver 115 with selenium 3.141.Locally its executing but via jenkins, driver was not launched
I have watched your video and follow the same steps but getting error, I don't know why it's not showing new chrome driver version. Please help. Thank you.
Any reasoning for having separate chrome binary and Chrome driver?
Does the new browser for testing will load DOM as same as operating system browser? Including shadow dom ,frames everything?
yes, as per chromium team, its exactly the same replica of regular browser. A versioned binary that’s as close to regular Chrome as possible without negatively affecting the testing use case.
Hi Naveen,
I tried with the same steps but i am not able to able to sign in in google account with automated script. Please do needful
Hi Naveen , is this supported in WebDriver IO
Wait i was able to run 119 chrome driver from dashboard to run for normal browser i am guessing post this video they have enabled 115 and newer browser to link with 115.x browsers as well bcs i am not using testing binary
do we need to download Java also .If yes, which version we should download?
Hi Naveen,
I was just impacted with this issue right after auto upgrade of chrome to v116 and got all details from your video, thanks a ton!
Just have few queries if you may answer-
1. I am using selenium v3.141.59 for my project with wdm, will there be any way to download CfT and chromedriver with that version of selenium or had to upgrade to Selenium 4.11.0 which is also a big change for my project.
2. Is there any dashboard chrome provided to download chrome(CfT)+chromedriver(CfT) of older version? As they claim that they did this change to solve to use older version as well.
Hey.. I am also facing the similar issue did you find solution for that?
Will this change affects only Selenium or Other tools like WDIO and playwright as well get impacted due to this Chrome Version change.
How can we get details at least about WDIO to adopt for this chrome change?
yes WDIO might be impacted as its a wrapper on top of selenium WD and its also using chromedriver.exe binary to interact with new testing chrome browser. It has to point to the new JSON endpoints to get the latest chrome binary and chromedriver.exe.
Playwright might not need to do this change as it uses its own brower binary and doesnt use any chromedriver.exe file.
in python how to set path to new chrome testing browser in selenium ,it is opening old browser only
is this applicable for playwright too.. how playwright will handle this
How to do for selenium vba macros i am getting object defined error
I am not able to see chromedriver version in C drive folder .cache
In pycharm how to give that binary path of latest testing chrome .anyone tell me please
how can I do the same for vba?
I think that's why my chrome was crashing, one doublt..will this test browser automatically update or everytime we need to download?
it has to be updated everytime but selenium manager or webdriver manager will take care of it after selenium 4.11
Hi @Naveen, Thanks to you, I exactly landed with the same issue of Chrome115. Except your Video, I could not find this particular information like Setting Binary anywhere else. Let me thankyou first for that. However, I am still facing an issue in launching the application with following error message? "Exception: could not start a new session. Possible causes are invalid address of the remote server. Browser version 115. Selenium version 4.10.0 . Any pointers are highly appreciated.
Could not start a new session. Response code 500. Message: unknown error: cannot find Chrome binary Stil Same errr
Thanks for sharing. Is it possible to add plugins to the versions 115+ like the older versions?
Yes you can
fast tip to resume the video:
put the driver at the same folder at the testing chrome
Hello, I've some issue with this application, Google Chrome For Testing application does not loads video files from s3 bucket. But when I'm trying to open the link with Google Chrome it works properly. Any ideas how I can handle this?
I'm really suffering )
I have got chrome 115 locally and still with my older selenium/Webdriver manager version able to launch.
Any answer would be helpful
He has talked about that in the video, stating that still with 115 NON _AUTOMATION browsers you can work with WDM or SeleniumManagers. It will be a problem in future when it doesnot support any more the future browser versions with your old Driver versions.
@@sounaknandi1393 got that!! I jumped to windows section
so @naveen sir,does that mean we need to revert back to system.setProperty method again?
Nope, for that we need to wait till selenium 4.11 as Naveen shows that tweet.
wait for 4.11, selenium manager will take care of it.
How to use it for selenium C# .. make a video for selenium C#
Hi @naveen
Can we automate gmail or continue with Google functionality as for Google policies will not allow us to automate that.
No you can't
sir pls make video for Selenium C# also
Running selenium server 4.11 as windows service doesn't work
What about playwright? How playwright will launch the chrome test
I am facing problem while running file upload test cases in cicd, sendkeys is not working. Currently I am using robot class for upload, which is working in local, but not working in cicd. Pls guide me.
robot class and sikuli will not work there. Alternate way can be make ur vm up and running while triggering job from jenkins
I am running from GitHub actions, do u know any alternative
what will be the impact if we use chrome in docker ?
Let's wait for 4.11. It might impact the interaction of selenium standalone server used at remote driver level to interact with latest testing chrome browser.
Hi sir, if we are using webdriver manger then we need to mention .exe file or not
Wdm also does not support this feature as of now.
I am getting this error on my arm processor Mac “Google Chrome for Testing” is damaged and can’t be opened. You should move it to the Bin.... Any solution?
getting the same issue here 🙃
I try with a documentation from Apple Support:
1. In the Finder, find the app you want to open.
2. Don't open it from Launchpad, as you won't be able to access the shortcut menu.
3. Control-click the app icon and choose Open from the shortcut menu.
3. Click Open.
4. The app will be saved as an exception to your security settings and you can open it in the future by double-clicking it, just like any other registered app.
+ tried to open the app as in min 8.00
Would this also affect the dockerised version of the selenium?
You mean the docker images of Chrome Standalone Brower for testing remotely?
@@sounaknandi1393 I have the similar doubt
Hi Dude, Could u help me and tell me do I should the same what in this video if I'm using Exactly Version 117.0.5938.132 (Official Version) (64-bit) ?
If you are already having chrome 117.x in your system. Please start using selenium webdriver latest version 4.13.0. It will take care of chrome 117.x version.
@@naveenautomationlabs Thank u dude 🙏🏻, if i get back to home I’m gonna try this
Sure
Ran into some issues with 115 today....
Just update the WDM to the latest version , it solved my WDM issue
well, its not about WDM issue. WDM latest version also not able to download and interact with new chrome testing browser which is released by google chromium only for automated testing. Right now WDM is working coz 114.exe file is able to interact with regular chrome (115) browser but not with the testing chrome browser.
when I tried to join the telegram app, it's saying the link is invalid or expired. Can you please upload new telegram link
try it again
do we need to download java 11 version also with this ?
Not needed but it's recommended
Ok
Google Chrome for Testing and chromedriver are copied to 'chrome-mac-x64'. But the property is defined to 'chromedriver-mac-x64' directory .!!!
Is this chrome browser won't automatically get updated?
It will be but selenium needs to download testing chrome browser for automation using selenium manager after 4.11.0.
Hi @Naveen, browser opened and URL is not entering. Exception: could not start a new session. Possible causes are invalid address of the remote server. Browser ver 115. Selenium version 4.10.0 pls help
I have 117 but there is no 117 now. Can see 119
I've updated webdriver-manager and didn't face any issues afterwards.
Or better solution: Selenium Manager is now fully included with selenium 4.10.0, so this is all you need:
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.service import Service
service = Service()
options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
driver = webdriver.Chrome(service=service, options=options)
you are not facing issue coz 114.exe file is still able to interact with chrome 115.
Once you have 116 chrome browser, you need to have 116.exe from the dashboard json endpoints which will be taken care by selenium manager from 4.11 onwards.
I'm doing this but still getting "org.openqa.selenium.SessionNotCreatedException: Could not start a new session. Possible causes are invalid address of the remote server or browser start-up failure. "
I am facing this error at some pages on UI while validating the datalayer through selenium and java . Can anyone suggest ?
