Chrome is installed but there is no chromedriver. What happens?
QuizEasy-MediumAsked in: Accenture, Infosys, Wipro
A laptop has Google Chrome but no chromedriver anywhere. With Selenium 4.6 or later, the test creates a Chrome driver with no driver path set. What happens?
- Selenium Manager, which ships with Selenium, finds or downloads a matching chromedriver and the test starts
- The test fails at once: you must always download chromedriver by hand
- Selenium falls back to the old JSON Wire protocol and drives Chrome without a driver
- You must add the WebDriverManager library first
