如何获取驻留在src / main / resources中的.exe文件的路径

Question

I am doing automation for one of our project, for that I coded like the below:

public void m() throws FileNotFoundException, IOException {
        System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver",Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader().getResource("chromedriver.exe").getFile());
        System.out.println("123");
        WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();
        driver.get("http://www.google.com");
    }

It's working when I execute in eclipse. but when I am testing with the maven generated jar, it is giving an exception :

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalStateException: The driver executable does not exist: C:\\Users\\rkowsu\\Desktop\\jar\\file:\\C:\\Users\\UU1\\Desktop\\jar\\resources-part-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar!\\chromedriver.exe

Is there anything wrong?

Answer 1

If you have chromedriver.exe in the src/main/resources directory of your application then it will get packaged up into your jar file.

It can't be executed from there.

Have a look at the answer to How to work with chrome driver in Maven .

Answer 2

For System.setProperty() you should be providing it with "webdriver.chrome.driver" and the relative\\path\\to\\exe . If your project structure looks like this:

src
    main
          java
             App.java
          resources
             chromedriver.exe

You should use System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "src" + File.separator + "main" + File.separator + "resources" + File.separator +"chromedriver.exe")

This should be able to find the .exe whether or not you run from a jar or not.
