I am trying to setup e2e test using protractor, keep on getting Chrome version must be >= 53.0.278 5.0 error.

Environment: OS: Windows 7(64 bit) Chrome: 44(I am not allowed to upgrade to latest version) Protractor: 5.0.0 ChromeDriver: 2.26 SeleniumStandalone: 2.53.1

Thanks.

  • If you cant upgrade your browser then you have to downgrade something else. probably just the driver, maybe protractor too – Gunderson Dec 15 '17 at 14:38
  • Thanks for response Gunderson, I have tried downgrading chrome driver to 2.20, after this most of the test cases fails with common error message "element is not clickable".. and I am sure that these test cases are working fine in my colleagues system.. – V_R Dec 16 '17 at 04:39

ChromeDriver 2.26 supports Chrome v53-55 as described here.

Downgrade your ChromeDriver with the command webdriver-manager update --versions.chrome 2.20. This would install ChromeDriver 2.20 which is compatible with Chrome v43-48.

  • Thanks for your response Mezo, yes I have tried that also.. when I have installed 2.20 in that case most of the test fails, it has a common error message "element is not clickable".. but these tests are running successfully in my colleagues system, and they have quite higher chrome version 55. So I don't think problem with test cases.. might be I am missing something in configuration for chrome 44. – V_R Dec 16 '17 at 04:36
  • Yeah, well Chrome 44 is more than 2 years old now... A lot of changes happened since then and it is possible that something is not compatible either in the app or in the test suite with your version. `Element is not clickable` is a pretty easy error to debug though - I'd `browser.pause()` just before the error is thrown and check the state of the app. – Mezo Istvan Dec 18 '17 at 12:56
