Unable to use Chrome with the Jmeter webdriver sampler, however the same code works fine for firefox

[ankur...@gmail.com]

Hello,

 

I am new to Jmeter and am facing an issue with the webdriver plugin in Jmeter.

I want to run performance tests on an application which renders on chrome, however i am facing an issue.

 

while searching the web i found a sample code for firefox which works with the webdriver sampler  and tried to run the same on google chrome however i failed to do so.

 

I followed the steps given on:

 

http://blazemeter.com/blog/jmeter-webdriver-sampler

 

Now when i try the same with chrome after giving the proxy and chrome driver path, all that happens is that the browser opens up but nothing happens after that.

 

Do i need to do anything else as well in order to make it work with chrome ?

 

Thanks and Regards,

Ankur Mohal

Hi

If you're using the current version of chrome you will need to make sure you're using chromedriver 2. Can you verify if you are using the correct version of chromedriver?

I'll have to have a closer look into it. Do you mind sending me your jmx file so I can see what may be experiencing?

[ankur mohal]

Hello,

I was able to fix this issue. there was an issue with the proxy itself. Thanks for the response.

Hi Ankur,

I faced the same issue too. Can you share the steps on how do you resolve it?

Thanks.

Hi,

I am facing one issue that when I run the webdriver sampler one extra chrome browser launches. Please suggest what changes should I do to correct it?

[Liliane et Robert Bourgault du Coudray]

Hi Swati,
Can you check in jmeter.log how many threads have been started or for any other traces that may explain the launching of the 2nd instance?
Best is to attach the jmeter.log file so we can also see what's happening.

Regards,

Robert

Hello,

I am trying to set up Jmeter Webdriver sampler in Jmeter 5.5, Chrome version 110.0.5481.77-1 , Chromedriver version  110.0.5481.77 on a docker with ubuntu:22.10 

Below is the code for chrome and driver


RUN wget https://dl.google.com/linux/direct/google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb \
    && apt-get install -y ./google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb &&\
    CHROMEVER=$(google-chrome --product-version | grep -o "[^\.]*\.[^\.]*\.[^\.]*") && \
    echo "Using chrome version: "$CHROMEVER &&\
    DRIVERVER=$(curl -s "https://chromedriver.storage.googleapis.com/LATEST_RELEASE_$CHROMEVER") &&\
    echo "Using chromedriver version: "$DRIVERVER &&\
    wget -q --continue -P /chromedriver "http://chromedriver.storage.googleapis.com/$DRIVERVER/chromedriver_linux64.zip" &&\
    unzip /chromedriver/chromedriver* -d /usr/bin/ && chmod +x /usr/bin/chromedriver

# Disable the SUID sandbox so that chrome can launch without being in a privileged container
RUN dpkg-divert --add --rename --divert /opt/google/chrome/google-chrome.real /opt/google/chrome/google-chrome \
    && echo "#!/bin/bash\nexec /opt/google/chrome/google-chrome.real --no-sandbox --disable-setuid-sandbox \"\$@\"" > /opt/google/chrome/google-chrome \
    && chmod 755 /opt/google/chrome/google-chrome

docker build is success.

Tried my best placing the chromedriver file in

usr/local/bin/chromedriver

usr/bin/chromedriver

opt/apache-jmeter-5.5/bin

it don't work

Can somebody help me get out of this issue.

[Liliane et Robert Bourgault du Coudray]

Hi George,

Did you specify the path tôo the Chromedriver in your JMeter test plan, in the Chrome Configuration? See attachment.
Otherwise, JMeter cannot guess where it is and it will fail (hence error: The driver executable must exist).

To view this discussion on the web visit https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/jmeter-plugins/d9afcd09-1984-4097-8a35-000b807cdb02n%40googlegroups.com.

[DT]

You need to specify the path to the chromedriver binary, not the folder where it lives, but the real full or relative path.

/usr/bin/chromedriver

or

/opt/apache-jmeter-5.5/bin/chromedriver

In general using Selenium for load testing is not recommended either by Selenium or by JMeter Plugin vendors so I hope you know what you're doing, in the vast majority of cases unless you're measuring frontend performance you should be using HTTP Request samplers and configure JMeter to behave like a real browser

Hello,

I have done the below upgrade from plugins manager in Jmeter 5.5, Chrome version  11.0.5563.65  on windows. The script was running fine before upgrade, but after upgrading it started showing error for chromedriver. Script is working fine for edgedriver 

Upgrades asking in plugin manager -

Uninstall plugin: jpgc-plugins-manager 1.8
Uninstall plugin: jpgc-webdriver 4.6.0
Install library: selenium-edge-driver
Install plugin: jpgc-plugins-manager 1.9

It's neither related to JMeter nor to WebDriver Sampler, you're suffering from Selenium bug 11750

The workaround would be adding --remote-allow-origins=* argument under "Options" tab of the Chrome Driver Config

Otherwise downgrade your Chrome browser to 110 and the appropriate version of the ChromeDriver

Alternatively you can consider running your tests using Taurus framework, see Execute JMeter script Using Taurus for more details, Taurus will automatically download JMeter and the requred plugins/webdriver binaries

[Liliane et Robert Bourgault du Coudray]

As Dmitri says, try adding the missing argument like this.

It looks like you have a JSR223 PreProcessor  with the following Groovy code:

sampler.setPath('some path')

this code fails for the WebDriver Sampler because it doesn't provide setPath() function, you can either ignore this error or move your JSR223 PreProcessor to be a child of the Sampler which path you need to amend. See JMeter Scoping Rules for more details
