Selenium.WebDriver - I get error when I try to run my test in Chrome

Question

I get this error when I try to run my test in Chrome:

Initialization method AutomationUsingSelenium.SmuladorChrome.MyTestInitialize threw exception. OpenQ

Answer 1

This is the error i see: OpenQA.Selenium.DriverServiceNotFoundException: The chromedriver.exe file does not exist in the current directory or in a directory on the PATH environment variable.

I resolved this problem by specifying the 'testsettings' argument in the command to run the unit tests.

E.g.

E:\Development\SampleProject\SampleProject.MvcWebApp\SampleProject.MvcWebApp.JavaScriptUnitTests\JavaScriptUnitTests\bin\Debug>"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Common7\IDE\mstest.exe" /testcontainer:JavaScriptUnitTests.dll /category:"JavaScriptUnitTests" /testsettings:..\..\..\Local.Testsettings /resultsfile:..\..\..\..\..\MsTestResults\SampleProject.MvcWebApp.JavaScript.Tests.trx

I use "/testsettings:......\Local.Testsettings" because the Local.testsettings file is 4 levels higher than the level where I am executing this command. You should change it accordingly.

This is the command used in ccnet.config file

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Common7\IDE\mstest.exe
    SampleProject.MvcWebApp\SampleProject.MvcWebApp.JavaScriptUnitTests\JavaScriptUnitTests\bin\Debug
    /testcontainer:JavaScriptUnitTests.dll /category:"JavaScriptUnitTests" /testsettings:..\..\..\Local.Testsettings /resultsfile:..\..\..\..\..\MsTestResults\SampleProject.MvcWebApp.JavaScript.Tests.trx
