This error indicates that Selenium is unable to locate or use the correct version of ChromeDriver. Here’s how you can resolve it:

1. Download the Latest ChromeDriver:

   • Go to the ChromeDriver download page and download the ChromeDriver version that matches your installed Chrome browser version.
   • You can find your Chrome version by opening Chrome and going to chrome://settings/help.

2. Set the Path to ChromeDriver:

   • Place the downloaded chromedriver.exe file in a location on your computer (e.g., C:\path\to\chromedriver.exe).
   • Add the path to ChromeDriver in your code using the webdriver.chrome.driver system property. For example:
     java

     Copy code

     System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "C:\\path\\to\\chromedriver.exe"); WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();

3. Update Selenium to the Latest Version:

   • Sometimes compatibility issues between Chrome, ChromeDriver, and Selenium can cause problems. Updating to the latest version of Selenium (as of this writing, you can try Selenium 4.10 or newer) may resolve the issue.

Hello Vishnu,

After recent changes by chrome browser they have segregated the "chrome for testing" with regular chrome browser so you need to download the latest version of chromedriver with below link for all the versions after v114, selenium manager won't be able to get the chrome for versions after v114.
