Integrate flutter ui test with docker: drive test on headless chrome

Question

I need to integrate flutter test drive into GitlabCI. I thing that easiest way to create a docker container (I use GitlabCI but you have the same problem if you use pure Docker or CircleCI or TravisCI or some pipeline into AWS or many other way) with chrome as device. But I get this error:

 Found multiple connected devices:
test_drive_1  | Web Server • web-server • web-javascript • Flutter Tools
test_drive_1  | Chrome     • chrome     • web-javascript • Google Chrome 74.0.3729.108
test_drive_1  | Using device Web Server.
test_drive_1  | Starting application: test_driver/app.dart

flutter_test_app_test_drive_1 exited with code 0

The complete example is here. To replicate the problem do this:

git clone https://gitlab.com/nicolalandro/flutter_test_app.git
cd flutter_test_drive

cd docker
docker build -t flutter_test_drive .

cd ..
docker-compose up

The interesting file are the follow:

• Dockerfile:

from cirrusci/flutter:stable

RUN sudo apt update && sudo apt install -y gdebi-core libnss3 libgconf-2-4
ADD google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb .
RUN sudo gdebi -n google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb

WORKDIR /app
ADD chromedriver .
RUN sudo chmod +x chromedriver

# upgrade flutter
RUN cd /home/cirrus/sdks/flutter && git checkout master && git pull && flutter upgrade

RUN flutter config --enable-web && flutter doctor

• run_test_drive.sh:

#!/bin/sh
/app/chromedriver --whitelisted-ips --port=4444 &
FOO_PID=$!
# nohup sh -c /app/chromedriver --whitelisted-ips &

flutter doctor
flutter pub get
flutter clean

# run test
flutter drive --target=test_driver/app.dart --release

kill $FOO_PID

• docker-compose.yml

version: '3'

services:
  test_drive:
    image: flutter_test_drive
    volumes:
    - .:/flutter_project
    working_dir: /flutter_project
    command: "./run_test_drive.sh"
    ports:
    - '8000:8000'

Solution

I upgrade the chrome and chrome driver versions to latest and now it work! So this code version work well.
