Thumb rule A common cause for Chrome to crash during startup is running Chrome as root user (administrator) on Linux. While it is possible to work around this issue by passing –no-sandbox flag when creating your WebDriver session, such a configuration is unsupported and highly discouraged.

You can’t do this in the WebDriver API, you have to do it in your code. For example: var textOfA = theAElement.getText(); var textOfSpan = theSpanElement.getText(); var text = textOfA.substr(0, textOfA.length – textOfSpan.length).trim(‘\n’); Note that the trailing newline is actually part of the text of the <a> element, so if you don’t want it, you … Read more
Looks like it takes time to load the webpage, and hence the detection of webelement wasn’t happening. You can either use @shri’s code above or just add these two statements just below the code driver = webdriver.Firefox(): driver.maximize_window() # For maximizing window driver.implicitly_wait(20) # gives an implicit wait for 20 seconds

I finally managed to get Selenium tests starting the Chrome Driver on my laptop (server). The important bit is to use Xvfb. Don’t ask me why but once you accept this fact follow these steps (more detailed than @Anon answer) In you Jenkins settings add a global property key : DISPLAY value:0:0 On your server … Read more
per the Selenium API, you really should call browser.quit() as this method will close all windows and kills the process. You should still use browser.quit(). However: At my workplace, we’ve noticed a huge problem when trying to execute chromedriver tests in the Java platform, where the chromedriver.exe actually still exists even after using browser.quit(). To … Read more

The grid url is in this format … Read more

To be more specific there are now two .until() methods. The old one (which is … Read more
