I create chrome driver like this:
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver",
"C:\\Users\\ragnar_000\\IdeaProjects\\ProjectA\\src\\test\\resources\\chromedriver.exe");
webDriver = new ChromeDriver();
This code is written on Windows platform. When I run it on Mac, I have to edit the path according to Mac platform.
How to set/check the path so that it can run on all platforms, like it just needs the path src/test/resources/chromedrivers.exe
Create a folder under your project and copy the chromedriver.exe to that folder (eg: /resources/chromedrivers.exe).
Then set the path to that folder by
String path = System.getProperty("user.dir");
System.out.println(path);
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver",path+"\\resources\\chromedriver.exe");
I have tried in windows and its working.Try if it works on Mac.
Two ways on answer to this question: First: use absolute path.
Paths.get("." + File.separator + "folder" + File.separator + "chromedriver.exe"); //local project folder
Paths.get(System.getProperty("user.home") + File.separator + "folder" +
File.separator + "chromedriver.exe"); //file in folder in user home dircetory
That's very dublicate question. Googleit.
Second way: this setting need to store in project *.properties file and reload this propertie on file on every platform without rewrite test source code. Any path ended like "...driver.exe" is not aplicable on unix or mac. Also this way provide posability run tests with driver-path string.
Hope it helps.
Based on the documentation https://www.selenium.dev/documentation/en/
WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver(); // for firefox
or
WebDriver driver = new ChormeDriver(); // for chrome
should help resolve this issue. Please ensure that you have imported the relevant classes
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;
