FYI: Canary update broke it

mathiasbynens opened this issue · 2 comments

The kiosk breaks subtly in Chrome Canary 63.0.3207.0. Worked fine in yesterday’s version. (Found out the hard way at GDD Europe.)

Entering a URL starts to run the tests, but they hang forever.

Our hotfix was to rename the Google Chrome Canary directory to something else, to force the script to fall back to stable Chrome. Should we change the default to stable Chrome, or remove Canary support from the code at this point?

Aw, sorry Canary broke you. chrome-launcher accepts a chromePath property or CHROME_PATH env var which is a path to a chrome binary.

Cool that you guys are using the project. Other than that, how did it go?

Ok, modernized LH to 2.4.0 and added support for chrome-launcher's CHROME_PATH. You can run the app with it to use a different version of Chrome.
