@nousacademy This is headless, so the whole point is that you don't see it. If you need to debug, you can use VNC to spin up a quick server:
x11vnc --listen 127.0.0.1 -rfbport 5900 -display :99
Then, connect to VNC on localhost with any VNC client.
I have Jenkins install on master and selenium stuff on a slave, after installing chrome, xvfb, chromedriver and dependencies to make "headless" chrome/selenium work[install on salve] when i build the script i am having " org.openqa.selenium.NoSuchSessionException: no such session " and Capabilities [{message=unknown error: Chrome failed to start: exited abnormally
I have not install selenium through.
#sudo apt-get -y install python python-pip
#sudo pip install selenium
No idea why i'm getting this error.
Pls help

Here is working inside the container ruby script:
require 'selenium-webdriver'
# Selenium::WebDriver.logger.level = :debug
options = Selenium::WebDriver::Chrome::Options.new
options.add_argument('--headless')
options.add_argument('--no-sandbox')
driver = Selenium::WebDriver.for :chrome, options: options
driver.manage.window.resize_to(1280, 1024)
driver.navigate.to "https://google.com"
driver.save_screenshot "image.png"
tnks a lot guy... you save my life

A little note for "webdriver-manager start" users:
the X display needs to be set for the webdriver server, since this is the one launching Chrome, not for the script that executes the tests.
This is particularly critical for Jenkins users, which may have selenium launched in a separate job and the tests launched in another.
