I am trying to run automated tests using Selenium Webdriver and webdrivermanager (bonigarcia). I am using Ubuntu + IntelliJ Idea.
For Firefox, driver is starting without any issues.
For Chrome I get the information:
selenium webdriver failed to load extension from . manifest file is missing or unreadable
I am not getting any name of this extension here, so no idea what is the problem.
I already tried to uninstall, clear all caches, try on a different PC, etc.
thanks!
Answer
The solution for that issue was to change the type of Chromium browser.
I have uninstalled Chromium which was in snap version and installed Chromium Web Driver.
