selenium 2 chrome driver

So I have read all the docs on adding chromedriver to my path and followed all of them. I am on a Mac with selenium2, maven, eclipse, and all the latest drivers:

Error:
The path to the chromedriver executable must be set by the webdriver.chrome.driver system property;

I put chromedriver in my Applications folder and my path looks like:

echo $PATH  
/Users/tcerrato/selenium/BS_Sel_Project/auto_helper/test_scripts:/usr/local/apache-maven-2.2.1//bin:/Users/oracle/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/bin:/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:/Applications:

What am I missing? I cannot run with chrome driver at all. Any help would be great I'm trying random stuff now.

Here is my pom section on selenium:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.seleniumhq.s开发者_运维知识库elenium</groupId>
    <artifactId>selenium</artifactId>
    <version>2.0rc2</version>
    <type>pom</type>
</dependency>
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.seleniumhq.selenium</groupId>
    <artifactId>selenium-chrome-driver</artifactId>
    <version>2.5.0</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.seleniumhq.selenium</groupId>
    <artifactId>selenium-firefox-driver</artifactId>
    <version>2.6.0</version>
</dependency>

Add WebDriverManager to your project:

<dependency>
   <groupId>io.github.bonigarcia</groupId>
   <artifactId>webdrivermanager</artifactId>
    <version>5.1.0</version>
</dependency>

This library downloads the latest version of the WebDriver binary you need and export the proper Java system variable (webdriver.chrome.driver, webdriver.gecko.driver, webdriver.opera.driver, webdriver.edge.driver, webdriver.ie.driver), simply using one of the following sentences respectively:

WebDriverManager.chromedriver().setup();
WebDriverManager.firefoxdriver().setup();
WebDriverManager.operadriver().setup();
WebDriverManager.edgedriver().setup();
WebDriverManager.iedriver().setup();

More info on https://bonigarcia.dev/webdrivermanager/

I am not sure about Maven but this how I set the property webdriver.chrome.driver

System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "C:\\pathto\\my\\chromedriver.exe");
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();
driver.get("http://www.google.com");

---

Setting the webdriver.chrome.driver system property via maven can be done by the following (and tested working):

1. Add systemPropertyVariables configuration to the maven-surefire-plugin in your pom.xml. This is (typically) because surefire is the caller for tests and where system properties will be set.

   <plugin>
       <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
       <version>2.7.1</version>
       <configuration>
           <systemPropertyVariables>
               <webdriver.chrome.driver>${webdriver.chrome}</webdriver.chrome.driver>
           </systemPropertyVariables>
       </configuration>
   </plugin>
   

2. Now define ${webdriver.chrome} somewhere. A good start is a <properties> section in your pom.xml

   <properties>
       <webdriver.chrome>/home/gede/bin/chromedriver</webdriver.chrome>
   </properties>
   

Potentially this could be done better via the use of <profiles> like in Simon Martinelli's example

You could have a go at using the driver binary downloader maven plugin to download the driver binaries for you (https://github.com/Ardesco/selenium-standalone-server-plugin):

                <plugin>
                    <groupId>com.lazerycode.selenium</groupId>
                    <artifactId>driver-binary-downloader-maven-plugin</artifactId>
                    <version>1.0.7</version>
                    <configuration>
                        <rootStandaloneServerDirectory>${project.basedir}/src/test/resources/selenium_standalone_binaries</rootStandaloneServerDirectory>
                        <downloadedZipFileDirectory>${project.basedir}/src/test/resources/selenium_standalone_zips</downloadedZipFileDirectory>                            
                    </configuration>
                    <executions>
                        <execution>
                            <goals>
                                <goal>selenium</goal>
                            </goals>
                        </execution>
                    </executions>
                </plugin>

This will download the binaries and set a maven property that you can use in your surefire/failsafe configuration like this:

                <plugin>
                    <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
                    <artifactId>maven-failsafe-plugin</artifactId>
                    <version>2.7.2</version>
                    <configuration>                            
                        <systemProperties>                              
                            <!--Set properties passed in by the driver binary downloader-->
                            <phantomjs.binary.path>${phantomjs.binary.path}</phantomjs.binary.path>
                            <webdriver.chrome.driver>${webdriver.chrome.driver}</webdriver.chrome.driver>
                            <webdriver.ie.driver>${webdriver.ie.driver}</webdriver.ie.driver>
                            <webdriver.opera.driver>${webdriver.opera.driver}</webdriver.opera.driver>
                        </systemProperties>
                        <includes>
                            <include>**/*WebDriver.java</include>
                        </includes>
                    </configuration>
                    <executions>
                        <execution>
                            <goals>
                                <goal>integration-test</goal>
                                <goal>verify</goal>
                            </goals>
                        </execution>
                    </executions>
                </plugin>

When you instantiate a new driver object the system property pointing to the driver binary location will now be set and it will just work.

So in the pom you have to set it like this

                  <dependency>
                  <groupId>org.seleniumhq.selenium</groupId>
                  <artifactId>selenium-chrome-driver</artifactId>
                  <version>2.34.0</version>
                  </dependency>

This is a java code to run the chrome using selenium

        System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver","C:/chromedriver.exe");
        WebDriver myD = new ChromeDriver();

In order for you to run Chrome you need to download the chrome driver from here. https://code.google.com/p/chromedriver/downloads/list

Once you have done that then you have to set it in environment variable. Read this https://code.google.com/p/selenium/wiki/ChromeDriver

Thanks,

       Mediha

System.setproperty("webdriver.chrome.driver","your file path here with chromedriver.exe");
webDriver driver=new chromeDriver();
driver.get("http://google.com");

---

Try this:

System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver","/location to/chromedriver folder");
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();
driver.get("your.app");

---

It works for me without setting webdriver.chrome.driver property. Just by adding chromedriver to PATH

> echo $PATH
/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:~/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin
>    
> which chromedriver
/usr/local/bin/chromedriver

If you use Homebrew, installing chromedriver along with adding to PATH can be done as simple as this:

brew install chromedriver

---

Just add WebDriverManager in your maven pom and it works without manual setup if you have your browser setup in default config.
