(The process started from chrome location /usr/bin/google-chrome is no longer running, so ChromeDriver is assuming that Chrome has crashed.)

Hi there! Would the Debian installation happen to be a minimal version? If so, there are a few things to check:

  1. Are there any missing dependencies? This is indicated by processes failing to start. A common bundle to install for Chrome is: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install -y libnss3 libatk1.0-0 libatk-bridge2.0-0 libcups2 libdrm2 libxkbcommon0 libxcomposite1 libxdamage1 libxrandr2 libgbm1 libpango-1.0-0 libcairo2 libasound2 libxshmfence1 fonts-liberation xdg-utils wget
  2. What is being logged by Chromedriver? To enable this log, pass chromedriver.log to the argument service_log_path of the Open Browser keyword from Selenium library. This log file is stored in the repository root after the test run is complete.
