Can Chrome Driver be ran "headless" like PhantomJS? - c#

I am writing integration tests with Selenium Web Driver using the Chrome Driver.
I need to run these integration test on the build server.
Can it be ran "headless" or should I recur to PhantomJS? Thank You.

Unable to open selenium chrome driver from azure vm machine to my client machine? is that even possible?

i have a angular project which triggers selenium Chrome-driver to open with help of c# API, it is working fine on my local machine. Now i have to deploy it on azure so my client can use in the same way too.
I tried and found out chrome-driver will only work on through azure VM-machine as it has some limitations. I purchased one azure VM and deployed my project there with chrome driver. it is working as a headless chrome-driver, i can see chrome driver is running in task manager but i cannot see the browser. Any help from anyone?
IWebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(Path.GetDirectoryName(Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().Location));
driver.Url = "https://www.youtube.com";

Microsoft webdriver and selenium webdriver causing visual studio build errors

I am trying to use Selenium Webdriver in visual studio to check a website. Everything worked fine when I was using just Chromedriver, but now that I have added the Microsoft Webdriver to test the site using Edge I am having issues. I made sure to download the correct version of the webdriver for my os build.
Every other time I go to run my test visual studio encounters a build error.
Warning Could not copy "C:\Desktop\UnitTestProject3\packages\Selenium.WebDriver.MicrosoftDriver.17.17134.0\build..\driver\MicrosoftWebDriver.exe" to "C:\Desktop\UnitTestProject3\UnitTestProject3\bin\Debug\MicrosoftWebDriver.exe". Beginning retry 9 in 1000ms. The process cannot access the file 'C:\Desktop\UnitTestProject3\UnitTestProject3\bin\Debug\MicrosoftWebDriver.exe' because it is being used by another process. The file is locked by: "Microsoft Web Driver (12804), Microsoft Web Driver (12340), Microsoft Web Driver (1124), Microsoft Web Driver (19756), Microsoft Web Driver (2592), Microsoft Web Driver (12736), Microsoft Web Driver (19604), Microsoft Web Driver (12428), Microsoft Web Driver (18604), Microsoft Web Driver (10500), Microsoft Web Driver (12724)"
If i dismiss the error and then run the test one more time it runs fine. Has anyone ran into this before?
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks

Check your processes, May be MicrosoftWebDriver.exe is still running in process and that's why you would get build error.
If script fails abruptly, you need to handle your code to quit driver. Otherwise driver will remain active in processes.

Selenium webdriver integration with Jenkins

How can I integrate selenium webdriver c# - MSunit tests to run on the Jenkins server as part of CI/CD

you need to use step Windows Batch Script and write there the exact command which is executing your tests locally (not from IDE but from local command promot or powershell)
after that if you need to publish test results consume plugin for MSunit and give the path of generated test rauls file to it.

Setup web server when using selenium webdriver c#

Im using selenium webdriver to make behavior tests on ASP.NET MVC application (C#).
I want to have a server that will automatically open when I run those tests, like the IIS server which automatically runs when I debug my application.
How do I do that ?
BTW, Im using the ChromeDriver if that matters.
Thanks.

Have you seen Stephen Walther's post which explains how you can create integration tests for ASP.NET MVC applications by using a combination of Selenium WebDriver and IISExpress?

Integration of automated testing in hudson using selenium framework

I'm new to web development and web testing. And I want to use Hudson in my continous integration and for my automated testing using selenium. How can I integrate the selenium in hudson, so that everytime I build using hudson, it will automatically execute the automated testing in selenium? What application should I install? By the way I'm using ubuntu as my OS.
I'm building my webapp using asp.net and C#.
Please advise.
Thanks.

You would invoke the tests like you would for your normal unit tests. Assuming that you are creating your tests to be run with NUnit then you will need to make sure that that is installed.
Setting up your Selenium project, like a normal class library project, that builds a dll that can run your tests should suffice.

You can Integrate your Selenium-TestNG/Nunit Framework with Maven, Maven build path you can give in Jenkins/Hudson.
