Travis CI Discussions & Feedback

I have managed to build my acceptance tests with chrome headless without selenium, they work well locally but I can not get them to work in travis.yml.

travis.yml:

language: php

php:
  - 7.2
  - 7.3

addons:
  chrome: stable

# faster builds on new travis setup not using sudo
sudo: false

# cache vendor dirs
cache:
  directories:
    - $HOME/.composer/cache

service:
  - mysql

before_install:
  - which google-chrome
  - mysql -e 'CREATE DATABASE ModuleUser;'

install:
  - travis_retry composer self-update && composer --version
  - travis_retry composer update --prefer-dist --no-interaction
 
before_script:
  - wget https://chromedriver.storage.googleapis.com/74.0.3729.6/chromedriver_linux64.zip

I’m seeing the same issue. :frowning:

E selenium.common.exceptions.WebDriverException: Message: unknown error: Chrome failed to start: exited abnormally
E (unknown error: DevToolsActivePort file doesn’t exist)
E (The process started from chrome location /usr/bin/google-chrome is no longer running, so ChromeDriver is assuming that Chrome has crashed.)
E (Driver info: chromedriver=74.0.3729.6 (255758eccf3d244491b8a1317aa76e1ce10d57e9-refs/branch-heads/3729@{#29}),platform=Linux 4.15.0-1028-gcp x86_64)

Link to job and config.

I noticed you’re missing this in your config @terabytesoftw:
google-chrome-stable --headless --disable-gpu --remote-debugging-port=9222 http://localhost &

Found here

Edit:

Managed to solve my issue. The “google-chrome-stable” stuff was not needed.
What I needed to do was to set “–headless” from chrome was actually being launched (test code).
