A simple approach would be to build your custom Jenkins docker image based on the official one.

The structure would be like this:

# Dockerfile
FROM jenkins

# Set user root to allow us to install the rest of what's needed
USER root

# <install your stuff here>

# Go back to non-sudo user
USER jenkins

I've pushed an image docker pull elgalu/jenkins with installed Chrome, chromedriver and Python3 with Selenium bindings. As you requested.

You can either use my image or check the source code and build it yourself:
