Cannot find Chrome binary when executing a selenium (testng) test in jenkins on windows 7
<p>I have a basic login test with selenium and testng. When executed from eclipse, it works as expected and invoke Google Chrome. If executed from TESTNG command line, it works fine too. </p>

<p>This is my @Before:</p>

<pre><code>@BeforeMethod
public void setUp() throws Exception { 
 File file = new File("C:/Selenium-driver/chromedriver.exe"); 
 System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", file.getAbsolutePath()); 
 driver = new ChromeDriver(); 
 driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(30, TimeUnit.SECONDS); 
 }
</code></pre>

<p>However, if I execute the same test thru Jenkins it says:</p>
