Problem: When I run my tests, I get the following message in the command prompt

Started ChromeDriver
port=9515
version=21.0.1180.4
log=C:\Users\jhomer\Desktop\Workspace\WebAutomationTesting\Tests\chromedriver.log

Chrome then starts, after which I get a windows error message stating the chromedriver has stopped working.

Additional Information:
I just recently switched from a mac (osx) to windows 7. I’m using the same IDE (Aptana 3) and I have installed the same gems:

addressable (2.2.8)
bigdecimal (1.1.0)
builder (3.0.0)
childprocess (0.3.2)
commonwatir (3.0.0)
ffi (1.0.11)
hoe (3.0.6)
io-console (0.3)
json (1.7.3, 1.5.4)
json_pure (1.7.3)
libwebsocket (0.1.3)
minitest (3.2.0, 3.1.0, 2.5.1
multi_json (1.3.6)

rake (0.9.2.2)
rautomation (0.7.2)
rdoc (3.12, 3.9.4)
rubygems-update (1.8.24)
rubyzip (0.9.9)
s4t-utils (1.0.4)

win32-process (0.6.5)
windows-api (0.4.1)
windows-pr (1.2.1)
xml-simple (1.1.1)

I have run gem update, gem pristine –all, none of which have helped.

** update **

The error I was getting on the prompt after the tests “completed” is as follows:

So before I used the version you suggested I was getting this error:

Error:
test_UserRoles(UserRolesTest):

Let me know if there is any additional information you may require.

Thanks.

    It seems that the windows version of chromedriver crashes when the .close method is called on the browser. That was the problem. Is there another method for closing the browser upon finishing the tests?
