4000+ tests eats up disk space *nom* #4160

Description of the bug/issue

Hi! Here's something I've noticed:

Every time a test starts up, Chrome creates two folders under /tmp/:

Though both folders are left behind when the test shuts down, which eventually eats up all my disk space when running 4000+ tests (4000 * 9mb = 36GB).

This doesn't happen on Nightwatch v1.7.11, (I've just been upgrading).

Steps to reproduce

  1. Run: npm init nightwatch (from https://nightwatchjs.org/guide/quickstarts/create-and-run-a-nightwatch-test.html)
  2. Open your /tmp/ folder.
  3. Run a single test: npx nightwatch ./nightwatch/examples/basic/ecosia.js
    • Also happens with multiple tests: npx nightwatch ./nightwatch/examples
  4. Watch your /tmp/ folder as Chrome creates folders and leaves them behind.
