Have you tried a different browser once, e.g. firefox?

[Remppa]

Hi @manykarim. The tests are executable when using Firefox.

I've put up a pull request to add @Remppa! :tada:

Just tried with latest robot framework-browser and no luck. Any advice how push this issue to upstream? Or hints to find a workaround 🤔

[xylix]

This should work after the next release.

[Nagam-Naidu]

Do we have any idea when this will be fixed. We are also facing the same issue.

It is working with default browser(chromium) but failing when we are passing channel as chrome in new_browser function.

[Remppa]

The original issue described in this issue is fixed. I'm ok with closing this issue. Big thanks to @xylix & co.

[xylix]

Thanks for helping with all the details around the issue! And yeah should now work as expected on 16.0.1 and future robotframework-browser docker images.
