Hi,

I want to run UI tests on RedHat machine and I can install chromium on that. So, Are Chrome and Chromium, how similar are they? I mean is it good to run the UI tests on Chromium as a substitute of Chrome? 

Regards.

If you plan on using Chrome --headless, it does not matter because it is basically Chromium.

How stable chromium is as it might be buggy becuase of its open source model as compared to Chrome?

Chrome and Chromium derive from the same code.

If you take a Chromium binary with a version equivalent to a stable Chrome version, it should be more or less just as stable.
