How to work with selenium-chrome-driver in Maven without ChromeDriver.exe

I add the below dependency and code for Opening Chrome,but browser is not opening. 

<dependency>
<groupId>org.seleniumhq.selenium</groupId>
<artifactId>selenium-chrome-driver</artifactId>
<version>2.50.0</version>
</dependency>

My code :- 

package example;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;`
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;
import org.testng.annotations.Test;
public class DepChrome {

    @Test
    public void testBrowser() {
    WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();
    driver.manage().window().maximize();
    }
}

From selenium 4.6.0 we do not need to explicitly handle this as now drivers are self capable using selenium manager. It's a beta verison as of now. refer:

https://www.selenium.dev/documentation/selenium_manager/
https://www.selenium.dev/blog/2022/introducing-selenium-manager/

if you are using lower version of selenium due to some reasons or do not want to use default SeleniumManager follow below steps:

Add below dependency as below:

        <dependency>
            <groupId>io.github.bonigarcia</groupId>
            <artifactId>webdrivermanager</artifactId>
            <version>5.9.2</version>
<!--            <scope>test</scope> -->
        </dependency>

Source: copy new dependencies version from below URL:

https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/io.github.bonigarcia/webdrivermanager

use below code :

WebDriver driver = null;
WebDriverManager.chromedriver().browserVersion("77.0.3865.40").setup();
ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
options.addArguments("start-maximized"); 
options.addArguments("enable-automation"); 
options.addArguments("--no-sandbox"); 
options.addArguments("--disable-infobars");
options.addArguments("--disable-dev-shm-usage");
options.addArguments("--disable-browser-side-navigation"); 
options.addArguments("--disable-gpu"); 
driver = new ChromeDriver(options); 
driver.get("https://www.google.com/");

Note: Arguments are optional.

Basically below line of code did the trick, below code to download a specific version

WebDriverManager.chromedriver().browserVersion("77.0.3865.40").setup();

Required version you can get from below URL:

https://chromedriver.storage.googleapis.com/index.html

you can also use below code instead of above, if you are looking for latest dependencies present on above chromedriver URL

WebDriverManager.chromedriver().setup();

OR (Old Way)

You need to give path of chrome binary as below:

System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "C:\\pathto\\my\\chromedriver.exe");
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();
driver.get("http://www.google.com");

Download the binary of chrome from selenium site as below :- http://chromedriver.storage.googleapis.com/index.html?path=2.21/

Now provide the path of the binary to selenium as :-

System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "C:\\pathto\\my\\chromedriver.exe");

There is one more thing to take care. if you are using windows then use backward slash \\ and if you are using mac or linux then use forward slash // for setting up the path.

Hope it will help you :)

I use this code and solved:

WebDriverManager.chromedriver().browserVersion("77.0.3865.40").setup();

With the following two maven dependencies, you do not need to set system properties at all, this should work

<!-- https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/io.github.bonigarcia/webdrivermanager -->
        <dependency>
            <groupId>io.github.bonigarcia</groupId>
            <artifactId>webdrivermanager</artifactId>
            <version>${webdriver-manager.version}</version>
        </dependency>

        <!-- https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.seleniumhq.selenium/selenium-chrome-driver -->
        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.seleniumhq.selenium</groupId>
            <artifactId>selenium-chrome-driver</artifactId>
            <version>${selenium-chrome-driver}</version>
        </dependency>

WebDriver driver;

@BeforeSuite
public void setUp(){
    WebDriverManager.chromedriver().setup();
    driver = new ChromeDriver();
    driver.get("http://www.ebay.in");
    driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(5000, TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS);
    }

In Maven, with the use of ChromeDriver.exe:

import static io.github.bonigarcia.wdm.DriverManagerType.CHROME;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;

import io.github.bonigarcia.wdm.WebDriverManager;

import org.testng.annotations.Test;

public class MavenTest {

    @Test
    public void TestMaven()
    {
    System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "D:\\Sumit_Backup\\Automation\\Workspace\\Maven\\src\\Browser\\chromedriver.exe");
    WebDriver driver= new ChromeDriver();
    driver.get("http://testng.org/doc/maven.html");
    driver.manage().window().maximize();
}
}

There are two ways.

  1. Easiest way is to download chromedriver from the this location

    Download chrome web driver

    Then create a source folder in your project. (Ex : BrowserDrivers) and add downloaded library into this.

    Then set the chrome driver path in the automation script using setProperty command as follow.

            System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "BrowserDrivers/chromedriver.exe");

  2. But there is another way. This is more suited for maven build. Add following dependencies in to the POM.xml file.

    There are 2 dependencies. One for Chrome Driver. But to use chrome driver dependency you have to add webdrivermanager dependency. It is compulsory dependency for browser driver. So always you have to add both of them. For more details refer this link Github Webdriver manager link

    <dependency>
     <groupId>io.github.bonigarcia</groupId>
     <artifactId>webdrivermanager</artifactId>
     <version>2.2.5</version>
</dependency>

    And add chrome driver dependency also.

    <dependency>
     <groupId>org.seleniumhq.selenium</groupId>
     <artifactId>selenium-chrome-driver</artifactId>
     <version>2.50.0</version>//Your chrome driver version
</dependency>

    Then in your automation script use this line instead of System.setProperty command to declare chrome driver.

    ChromeDriverManager.getInstance().setup();

    UPDATE: the use of ChromeDriverManager is deprecated, use this instead:

    import static io.github.bonigarcia.wdm.DriverManagerType.CHROME;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;
import io.github.bonigarcia.wdm.WebDriverManager;

WebDriverManager.getInstance(CHROME).setup();

Check below code - 

package example;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;
import org.testng.annotations.Test;
import io.github.bonigarcia.wdm.WebDriverManager;
public class DepChrome  {
    @Test
    public void testBrowser() {
        WebDriver driver;
        WebDriverManager.chromedriver().setup();
        driver = new ChromeDriver();        
        driver.get("https://google.com");
        String title = driver.getTitle();
        System.out.println(title);      
        driver.quit();      
    }
}
