My code is not launching browser.
Project show running for a long time, but nothing happens. I pushed print and observed that WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(); is not getting executed.
package seleniumautomation;
import org.openqa.selenium.*;
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;
public class seleniumautomation {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver","D:/selenium_java/chromedriver.exe");
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();
driver.navigate().to("https://www.zaakpay.com/");
}
}
After some debugging, I am getting this new error:
I added manifest_vesion, but in every run, it is generating a new file and i am again getting same error.
Download jar from: http://chromedriver.storage.googleapis.com/index.html?path=2.23/
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver",
"<Downloaded file location>");
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();
driver.get("https://www.zaakpay.com/");
Then, it will work.
To use Chrome Browser needs to System.setPropert("webdriver.chrome.driver","PATH")
The ChromeDriver is maintained / supported by the Chromium project iteslf. WebDriver works with Chrome through the chromedriver binary.
Download Link of ChromeDriver : LINK
You need to add chromedriver.exe(can be downloaded from http://www.seleniumhq.org/download/) to your project. Along with it, you need to add following lines in your code:
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", PATH_TO_EXE_FINAL);
capabilities= DesiredCapabilities.chrome();
capabilities.setBrowserName(DesiredCapabilities.chrome().getBrowserName());
Use following code snippet to launch chrome driver.
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", PATH_TO_EXE_FINAL);
ChromeOptions opt = new ChromeOptions();
opt.addArguments("disable-extensions");
opt.addArguments("--start-maximized");
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(opt);
I solved the issue by changing my OS windows 10 language to english. selenium methods can not execute some other languages. If in both IE, geckodriver and chrome you are having the same issue it is language problem I can asuure you

How to deploy java selenium on heroku, I can't find video on youtube or other tutorial, any idea ?
I tried converting python code to java code but I don't know how to do it.
ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
options.addArguments("--lang=en");
options.addArguments("--no-sandbox");
webDriver = new ChromeDriver(options);
This is my settings before google chrome opens.
You are just missing to set the chrome driver path. Pass the chrome driver path to SetBinary() in the below code:
ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions()
options.addArgument("--disable-gpu");
options.addArgument("--no-sandbox");
options.setBinary("/path/to/chromedriver");
ChromeDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(options);
The way that you are tring to do this, is the Hard Coded way and you will encounter a lot of bugs along the way. So I recommend the Driver Management Software way.
Get WebDriverManager (Github, Offical Website) and import the following library:
import io.github.bonigarcia.wdm.WebDriverManager;
Call the setup() method like this:
WebDriverManager.chromedriver().setup();
Initialize the driver:
ChromeDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();

I am trying to launch chrome.exe from selenium webdriver i have chrome installed on my machine and chromedriver path is also given in code but selenium webdriver for java is looking for chrome.exe on wrong path and giving error and not launching browser.
I have tried options class to locate the chrome.exe with the actual path of chrome.exe but not working for me.I have done required imports as well but still no success.
I have tried below selenium webdriver java code
public class News24Test
{
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception
{
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver","C://News24SA//ChromeDriver//chromedriver.exe");
ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
options.setBinary("C://Program Files(x86)//Google//Chrome//Application//chrome.exe"); // Provide absolute executable chrome browser path with name and extension here
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(options);
driver.manage().window().maximize();
driver.get("http://www.news24.com");
}
}
Selenium is looking at below path which is wrong path
C:\Users\orestip\LocalSettings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe
Try setting the options first:
ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
options.setBinary("C:\\Program Files(x86)\\Google\\Chrome\\Application\\chrome.exe");
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver","C:\\News24SA\\ChromeDriver\\chromedriver.exe");
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(options);
Make sure the chromedriver version and the chrome browers versions match.
You can either update your chrome browser to match the driver version or you can choose a chromedriver that matches your browser version.
Hi so old question but if anyone else is a bit stumped by this, I'll give my take.
So, you may one day have a working chromedriver and then it suddenly just stops working. What actually happens is Chrome updates behind the scenes and makes it out of date.
What you need to do is update your chromedriver so it matches your actual, normal Chrome installation.
I am new in Automation testing.
Had created a simple program to Open URL in Firefox browser. Browser is getting opened without URL.
Someone please help.
package sanitytest;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;
public class Adminlogin {
public static void main(String[]args){
WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
driver.get("http://www.gcrit.com/build3/admin/login.php");
}
}
I am using Firefox version :- 47.0.1
eclipse mars version :- 4.5.0
Selenium webdriver version :- 2.51
For Mozila Firefox till version 46.x it was the legacy browser and we didn't need gecko driver. Mozila Firefox from version 47.x onwards comes with Marionette, which is an automation driver for Mozilla's Gecko engine. It can remotely control either the UI or the internal JavaScript of a Gecko platform, such as Firefox. Can be donwloaded here: https://github.com/mozilla/geckodriver/releases and needs selenium 3.x.
So, either downgrade FF to version 46.x, or use latest selenium binding with geckodriver + latest FF
Unfortunately Selenium WebDriver 2.51.0 is not compatible with Firefox 47.0. The WebDriver component which handles Firefox browsers (FirefoxDriver) will be discontinued.
Try using firefox 46.0.1. It best matches with Selenium 2.51
https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/
try the following code its working
package automation ;
import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit
enter code here
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;
public class test {
public static void main(String[] args) throws InterruptedException {
//Object webdriver;
System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver",
"C:\\Users\\user\\Downloads\\geckodriver-v0.17.0-win64/geckodriver.exe");
WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
driver.manage().window().maximize();
driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(25, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
driver.get("https://www.easybooking.lk");
String i = driver.getCurrentUrl();
System.out.println(i);
//driver.close();
}
}
if its not working http://www.seleniumhq.org/download/ here download java 3.4.0
then in eclipse, right click your project-->properties-->java build path--> liberies-->add external JARS..
enter image description here
System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver", "C:\\Users\\vinil\\Downloads\\geckodriver-v0.11.1-win64\\geckodriver.exe");
WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
driver.get("http://www.jobserve.com/in/en/Job-Search/");
driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[#id='ddcl-selInd']/span/span")).click();
Thread.sleep(5000);
driver.quit();
[]
This happens on driver.quit() when you are closing the browser.
It is unfortunately known issue when quitting geckodriver firefox instance, see this links for details.

I am using Selenium and trying to initialize the Chrome driver to start without a start up window.
ChromeOptions options= new ChromeOptions();
options.addArguments("--no-startup-window");
//I tried this line also: options.addArguments("--silent-launch");
DesiredCapabilities capabilities = DesiredCapabilities.chrome();
capabilities.setCapability(ChromeOptions.CAPABILITY, options);
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(Capabilities);
I am getting the following exception:
Unknown error: Chrome failed to start: exited normally
Can anybody help me?
You need to download the binary first from selenium website, download binary according to your specifications:-
http://chromedriver.storage.googleapis.com/index.html?path=2.19/
Now set below code so selenium script will know the path of your binary
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver","./src\\lib\\chromedriver.exe");
So the code should be like this:-
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver","./src\\lib\\chromedriver.exe");
ChromeOptions options= new ChromeOptions();
options.addArguments("--no-startup-window");
//I tried this line also: options.addArguments("--silent-launch");
DesiredCapabilities capabilities = DesiredCapabilities.chrome();
capabilities.setCapability(ChromeOptions.CAPABILITY, options);
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(capabilities);
Hope it will help you :)
I think the flag you are looking for is --headless
This feature has just been implemented in chrome 57
--no-startup-window is used for hosting background apps, see this page and as mentioned in the other answers doesn't launch a window which is why the webdriver can't talk to it.
--headless does launch a window, but doesn't make it visible.
I am using Selenium and trying to initialize the Chrome driver to start without a start up window.
According to Selenium GitHub (Strange error, chromedriver with --no-startup-window), Selenium requires JavaScript and Chrome window to work:
Much like --disable-javascript, the chromedriver will not work if you use --no-startup-window.
It needs to launch a window to establish the connection with the AutomationProxy.
