Difficulty encountered while executing Protractor tests with Selenium Server

Attempting to Execute Protractor/Jasmine/Selenium End-to-End Tests

Currently in the process of running end-to-end tests using Protractor with the standalone Selenium server and the chrome driver.

Encountering a Selenium server error when attempting to run tests with Protractor: 14:08:24.188 WARN - Exception: C:\Users\ARM678\AppData\Local\Temp\jna--1409357381\jna1939368593138214681.dll: %1 is not a valid Win32 application

Providing more details below...

Selenium standalone server initiated through command line execution (passing location of chrome web driver):

Command

java -jar selenium-server-standalone-2.52.0.jar -Dwebdriver.chrome.driver="C:\TDAWare\servers\selenium\drivers\chromedriver.exe"

Output (Seems Fine So Far):

14:00:27.695 INFO - Launching a standalone Selenium Server
Setting system property webdriver.chrome.driver to C:\TDAWare\servers\selenium\drivers\chromedriver.exe
14:00:27.845 INFO - Java: Oracle Corporation 25.72-b15

14:00:27.855 INFO - v2.52.0, with Core v2.52.0. Built from revision 4c2593c
...

Protractor conf.js file:

exports.config = {
  framework: 'jasmine',
  seleniumAddress: 'http://localhost:4444/wd/hub',
  specs: ['tdau-homepage-spec.js'],
  allScriptsTimeout: 200000,
  jasmineNodeOpts: {...},
  onPrepare: function() {...}
}

Protractor tdau-homepage-spec.js

'use strict';
describe('My first test suite', function() {
    it('should bring up a web page', function() {
        browser.get('https://internal.tdameritradeu.com/dist');
        expect(browser.getTitle()).toEqual('TD Ameritrade U');
    });
});

Running Test (Issues Arise):

protractor conf.js

Multiple stack traces revealed from both Selenium Server and Protractor. Examination of logs indicates that there may be issues related to the chromedriver.exe creating jna1939368593138214681.dll which Windows struggles with.

From Selenium Server:

Various errors encountered while attempting to create session for ChromeDriver.
Caused by: java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: C:\Users\ARM678\AppData\Local\Temp\jna--1409357381\jna1939368593138214681.dll: %1 is not a valid Win32 application...

From Protractor:

Error message indicating an issue with jna1939368593138214681.dll being an invalid Win32 application during WebDriver session creation.

Troubleshooting Steps Taken:

  • Redownloaded driver to ensure no corruption in zip file
  • Attempted different versions of the driver
  • Unzipped driver with multiple utilities to rule out any corruption

Environment Details:

  • OS: Windows 7 Enterprise (64-bit)
  • chromedriver version: 2.21 (also tried v.2.16)
  • node version: 4.2.4
  • npm version: 3.7.5

Note: Google confirms only a 32-bit version of the Chrome driver available, compatible with 64-bit systems as well.

Answer №1

It seems that your configuration file is missing the capabilities section. You must specify which driver to use by adding browserName: 'chrome'.

exports.config = {
  framework: 'jasmine',
  seleniumAddress: 'http://localhost:4444/wd/hub',
  capabilities: {
    browserName: 'chrome'
  },
  specs: ['tdau-homepage-spec.js'],
  allScriptsTimeout: 200000,
  jasmineNodeOpts: {
        defaultTimeoutInterval: 200000,
        showColors: true,
    print: function() {}
  },
  onPrepare: function() {
      var SpecReporter = require('jasmine-spec-reporter');
      jasmine.getEnv().addReporter(new SpecReporter({displayStacktrace: 'all'}));
   }
}
