Unable to download Chrome driver for version 115

Question

I am unable to download the Chrome driver for Chrome version 115. I have downloaded the ZIP file from:

https://edgedl.me.gvt1.com/edgedl/chrome/chrome-for-testing/115.0.5790.102/win64/chrome-win64.zip

But I am unable to find the chromedriver.exe file there.

I am running a Java-Selenium test which needs the chromedriver path. I copied the path of chrome.exe into the program, but it's failing and giving the error as

Timed out waiting for driver server to start.

Do I need chromedriver.exe for this? And how can I get this?

Answer 1

Use chrome driver version 114.0.5735.90 for chrome version 115. It's working for me.

Answer 2

Use the new chromedriver download site: https://googlechromelabs.github.io/chrome-for-testing/#stable

The URL under chromedriver for win32 holds a chromedriver.exe which you have to unpack and add to your path. Both chromedriver and Google Chrome of the same version (115) must be found in path by Selenium to work.
