Answer 1

Incase you are looking for the compatible ChromeDriver for Chrome v48:

• As per the Release Notes of chromedriver=2.20:

Supports Chrome v43-48

• As per the Release Notes of chromedriver=2.21:

Supports Chrome v46-50

You can download chromedriver=2.20 and chromedriver=2.21 from these locations.

A word of caution

Though chromedriver=2.20 and chromedriver=2.21 would be compatible with chrome=48.0 but both the binaries won't be compatible with the current release of Selenium v3.141.59.

Solution

The best approach would be to ensure that:

• JDK is upgraded to current levels JDK 8u222.
• Selenium is upgraded to current levels Version 3.141.59.
• ChromeDriver is updated to current ChromeDriver v79.0.3945.36 level.
• Chrome is updated to current Chrome Version 79.0 level. (as per ChromeDriver v79.0 release notes)

Answer 2

You can find older versions in https://chromedriver.storage.googleapis.com/index.html. According to the notes ChromeDriver v2.21 support Chrome 48.
