Headless Linux and chrome not working with Selenium - linux

Question

I am trying to run the tests on a headless Linux environment.
I have included below dependencies in the project:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.seleniumhq.selenium</groupId>
<artifactId>selenium-java</artifactId>
<version>3.141.59</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>junit</groupId>
<artifactId>junit</artifactId>
<version>4.4</version>
<scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.seleniumhq.selenium</groupId>
<artifactId>selenium-chrome-driver</artifactId>
<version>3.141.59</version>
</dependency>
Below is the simple test case where I am trying to hit a URL and checking if its available. But on Jenkins its not able to start the browser using the driver.
public void testGoogleSearch() throws InterruptedException {
// Optional. If not specified, WebDriver searches the PATH for chromedriver.
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "src/test/resources/chromedriver");
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();
driver.get("http://www.google.com/");
Thread.sleep(5000); // Let the user actually see something!
WebElement searchBox = driver.findElement(By.name("q"));
searchBox.sendKeys("ChromeDriver");
searchBox.submit();
Thread.sleep(5000); // Let the user actually see something!
driver.quit();
}
Stacktrace is:

Answer 1

I found the problem, it was the version mismatch of chromedriver and chromium-broswer version. After adding the correct driver it started working fine.
I downloaded the correct version from below URL:
https://chromedriver.chromium.org/
