How do I install Selenium standalone?
To manually install and start the standalone Selenium Server, use the webdriver-manager command line tool that comes with Protractor.
-
Run the webdriver-manager update command. This will install the server as well as the ChromeDriver.
-
Run the webdriver-manager start command. This will launch the server. There will be numerous output logs, beginning with INFO. ‘Info - Started org.openqa.jetty.jetty.Server’ will be the last line.
-
Consider leaving the server running while you run your tests.
-
Set seleniumAddress to the address of the running server in your config file. The default value is http://localhost:4444/wd/hub.
