Selenium is great for automated testing of web-apps and I’ve been using the Selenium IDE Firefox extension for a few months now.
Electron ChromeDriver. Simple node module to download the ChromeDriver version for Electron. The major version of this library tracks the major version of the Electron versions released. So if you are using Electron 2.0.x you would want to use an electron-chromedriver dependency of 2.0.0 in your package.json file. This library is used. ChromeDriver is actually the WebDriver for Chrome. ChromeDriver is available for Chrome on Desktop (Mac, Linux, Windows and ChromeOS). Pre-requisite: Before proceeding to the download steps, we need to check our chrome browser version in order to download compatible version of ChromeDriver for Chrome. Step 1: Open Chrome Browser. I'm trying to run RSelenium using the rsDriver function, but when I run rD rD DOWNLOAD BEGIN: POSTDOWNLOAD checking chromedriver versions: BEGIN: PREDOWNLOAD BEGIN: DOWNLOAD BEGIN: POSTDOWNLOAD checking geckodriver versions: BEGIN: PREDOWNLOAD. Each version of ChromeDriver supports Chrome with matching major, minor, and build version numbers. For example, ChromeDriver 73.0.3683.20 supports all Chrome versions that start with 73.0.3683. Before a new major version of Chrome goes to Beta, a matching version of ChromeDriver will be released.
For completeness of automated testing for web apps you need to do this in a number of different browsers which Selenium IDE doesn’t do. So you’ll need to download and install Selenium on your Mac.

Chromedriver Mac Os
Download Chromedriver to your Mac
Head over to the Chromedriver Project page and download the latest package.
You then need to unzip the package and then copy the file to /usr/bin
This is a hidden system folder so the easy way to get to this file is
- Open another finder window
- From the Go menu select Go To Folder
- Type /usr/bin and press enter
Now drag n drop the Chromedriver file from your Download folder to this directory. You’ll be prompted for you Admin password.

Finally, I suggest you restart your computer as the next step didn’t work when I tried it.
Basic Test Case for Chromedriver and Selenium
If you’ve already followed my guide to setup Selenium via Python then this will look familiar
Open a terminal window and type the following, pressing enter at the end of each line
After a few seconds, if all is well a new instance of Chrome will open
To finish the test just type
driver.get('http://www.damien.co')
To exit Python from your open Terminal, press ctrl+z
