Cannot find Chrome binary when executing a selenium (testng) test in jenkins on windows 7

Question

I have a basic login test with selenium and testng. When executed from eclipse, it works as expected and invoke Google Chrome. If executed from TESTNG command line, it works fine too.

This is my @Before:

@BeforeMethod
public void setUp() throws Exception { 
 File file = new File("C:/Selenium-driver/chromedriver.exe"); 
 System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", file.getAbsolutePath()); 
 driver = new ChromeDriver(); 
 driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(30, TimeUnit.SECONDS); 
 }

However, if I execute the same test thru Jenkins it says:

Building in workspace C:\EclipsePortable\Data\workspace\GS_TESTNG 
[G_TESTNG] $ cmd /c call C:\Windows\TEMP\hudson9049518275115936054.bat

I think you need to install chrome in your instance. for that you follow this basic commands

wget https://dl.google.com/linux/direct/google-chrome-stable_current_x86_64.rpm
sudo yum install ./google-chrome-stable_current_*.rpm

google-chrome &
