Run Selenium tests in Chrome instead of Firefox

Here is how to switch your Selenium to Chrome:

1. Make sure you've got a recent version of chromedriver Show archive.org snapshot in your $PATH

See also geordi chromedriver_update Show archive.org snapshot which is automatically executed before every usage of geordi cucumber.

2. Register Driver:

Create a file features/support/capybara.rb with the following content for recent version of Capybara:

CopyCapybara.register_driver :selenium do |app|
  Capybara::Selenium::Driver.new(app, browser: :chrome)
end

Legacy Capybara setup

If you have an older Capybara version you need to say:

CopyCapybara.javascript_driver = :selenium

Capybara::Driver::Selenium.class_eval do
  cattr_accessor :driver
end

driver = Selenium::WebDriver.for :chrome

Capybara::Driver::Selenium.driver = driver

at_exit do
  driver.close
end
