Wallaby + Chromedriver acting weird. What's changed? Anyone else? How can I debug?
Something seems to have changed with Wallaby or Chromedriver. After my test suite runs there are orphaned chrome instances present. During test execution I cannot run with the browser, only headless. When tests fail they no longer take a screenshot.
I am not sure what’s changed nor how to debug it. There is a recently opened issue Chrome zombie processes · Issue #544 · elixir-wallaby/wallaby · GitHub
My chromedriver already matches my browser’s version. I have tried downgrading to 0.25 but no change in behavior.
This isn’t the first time there have been rogue processes left after a test. I wasn’t able to investigate them previously and I’m not sure how to investigate them now.
Direction is greatly appreciated.

Hi,
To take screenshots on failure, you must configure :screenshot_on_failure to be true, and this only works when using the feature macro.
You must pass the log: true option to take_screenshot for it to print to the terminal.

You are likely starting a session manually in addition to using use Wallaby.Feature in your test.
If you are already using your own ExUnit.CaseTemplate, you probably want to replace use Wallaby.Feature with import Wallaby.Feature
