Bowser Not Opened Exception

Hi,

I am having a scenario where a single test case is rung for multiple sets of data.
So i have iterated the single test case in a for loop.
The code looks similar to this:

for (int rows=1;rows< 8;rows++){
WebUI.openrowser()
WebUI.navigateToUrl(‘someURL’)
—preform operations—

WebUI.closeBrowser
}

I have the code in for loop for killing the chromebrowser and driver in task manager.

When i run in for loop trying to close and open browser , i am unable to open browser.Eventually leading to failure of my test case

Could someone help me on this.

Thanks in advance!!!

Thanks,

Hi,

can you share full exception and also full test script would be great. Thanks.

Hi,

Sorry ,I should not place the code.

Here is the exception:

Well, I have similar problem, I can’t run it in Chrome browser and Mozilla Firefox, but I can run it in a IE.
But this helped me, now I can run it without any problmes.

System.setProperty('webdriver.chrome.driver', 'PATH\chromedriver.exe')
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver()
DriverFactory.changeWebDriver(driver)
driver.get('https://www.google.com')

Hi,

This solution could resolve my issue.

But when using this code, i am not able to see the option to run on Active Browser when the test case fails.

Could that be resolved too?

Thanks,

Test script:

Runtime.getRuntime().exec(‘taskkill /F /IM chrome.exe’)
}
catch (Exception e) {
}
WebUI.delay(10)
WebUI.openBrowser(‘’)
WebUI.navigateToUrl(GlobalVariable.URL_Login)
WebUI.maximizeWindow()

The above test script is called for opening a new Browser.
