How to run selenium 3.x with chrome driver through terminal
integration-testing, selenium, selenium-chromedriver, testing
Solution
your options are out of order. `-D...` is a java runtime variable. it needs to come before the `-jar` directive.
Change your command to
java -Dwebdriver.chrome.driver=chromedriver -jar selenium-server-standalone-2.53.1.jar -browserSideLog -debug -timeout 60
I used to run selenium 2.x as that way.
Yes, we changed the source to use `JCommander` in 3.0 to parse options passed into the jar. `-D` directives are now parsed as options you are trying to pass into the jar, just like `-debug` and `-timeout`. For your command to be well formed, you really should be using `-D...` before the `-jar` directive.
Problem
May be it's easy question but I can't find any info about that. I used to run selenium 2.x as that way. I start server: ``` java -jar selenium-server-standalone-2.53.1.jar -Dwebdriver.chrome.driver=chromedriver -browserSideLog -debug -timeout 60 ``` And then I run my tests. I use Dart so I do ``` pub run test test/selenium/custom_component_test.dart ``` But now i'm trying use selenium 3. I have downloaded it and substitute my old terminal call with new jar but seems I can do it. Selenium tells me it doesn't know such parameter "-Dwebdriver.chrome.driver". And in help I can't see parameters to specify parameter. So, how to run selenium 3 with chrome driver?
