org.openqa.selenium.remote.service.DriverService$Builder.createArgs()Lcom/google/common/collect/ImmutableList; with Selenium 3.5.3 Chrome 76

I'm writing Selenium Junit tests with IntelliJ. The tests run ok if I trigger from test directly. However, if I trigger tests from TestRunnerSuite with JunitCore, I encountered following weird error that I did not find a solution after researching on google. Similar questions on DriverService$builder, but not my error type.

I'm using Selenium 3.5.3 and chrome 76.---> Updated to Selenium 3.141.59,and with main scope.
Now getting error

My project folder structure is

.src
...main
.....java
.......projectname
.........constantsFolder
.........utilFolder
...........util1.java
...........util2.java
.........Test1.java
.........TestRunnerSuite.java
.........WebDrivers.java

If I start test from Test1.java, the test runs regularly though with warnings

[main] INFO projectname.util.util1 - Set up chrome driver.
Starting ChromeDriver 75.0.3770.90 (a6dcaf7e3ec6f70a194cc25e8149475c6590e025-refs/branch-heads/3770@{#1003}) on port 28755
Only local connections are allowed.
Please protect ports used by ChromeDriver and related test frameworks to prevent access by malicious code.
[1566609934.853][WARNING]: This version of ChromeDriver has not been tested with Chrome version 76.

INFO: Detected dialect: W3C
[main] INFO projectname.util.util1 - Navigating to https://mytest.com/

However, after adding a testSuiteRunner as below.

@RunWith(Suite.class)
@Suite.SuiteClasses({ Test1.class })
public class TestSuiteRunner {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Result result = JUnitCore.runClasses(Test1.class);
        // print erros, exit etc omitted
    }
}

Now I get the weird error and cannot fire the chromedriver. The webdriver I have is singleton

public class WebDrivers {
    private static WebDriver driver = null;

    public static WebDriver getInstance(){
        if (driver == null) {
            driver = new ChromeDriver();
        }
        return driver;
    }
}

It's my first time to work on setting everything up from grounds. I'm not sure if it's pom dependency issue, singleton webdriver issue, or something else. Could anyone share an eyesight on this and give some clues? Much appreciated.

Solution

  • This error message...

    java.lang.AbstractMethodError: org.openqa.selenium.remote.service.DriverService$Builder.createArgs()Lcom/google/common/collect/ImmutableList;

    ...implies that there is some incompatibility between the version of the binaries you are using specifically with the guava dependency.

    So there is a clear mismatch between the Selenium Client v3.5.3 and Chrome Browser v76.0

    However as per the discussions in:

    These issues crop up due to incompatibile Guava dependency.

    The current guava version used within selenium-java-3.141.59 is guava-25.0-jre

    Solution

    Ensure that:

    Update

    So presumably your main question with respect to the error:

    java.lang.AbstractMethodError: org.openqa.selenium.remote.service.DriverService$Builder.createArgs()Lcom/google/common/collect/ImmutableList;

    is solved. Congratulations.

    Now, as per your question update as you are seeing the error:

    java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/http/auth/Credentials

    There are two aspects.
