    Hi Egg,

     

    I hope you are keeping well.

     

    This issue maybe occurring due to configuration within the test. 

     

    As per the following guide ; https://support.smartbear.com/testcomplete/docs/app-testing/web/supported-browsers/headless.html

     

    To run the test in local headless browsers you will need to update the Test to use the webdriver of the desired browser, the url and the screen resolution;

     

     

    Please let me know if the configuration changes resolves your query or if you have any additional questions.

     

    Thanks,

    Shane

Having a similar problem trying headless Chrome and I wonder if anybody can help!

Run ChromeDriver on Win10 (and it reports that is running on localhost port 9515)

Running a simple function in BDD script:

//var server = "localhost";
var server = "localhost:9515";
var capabilities = {
"browserName": "chrome",
"screenResolution": "1920x1080"
};

var url = "https://google.com";
Browsers.RemoteItem(server, capabilities).Run(url);
Delay(2000);

Setting server to localhost or localhost:9515 won't make a difference and once it gets to the Delay(2000) line, it stops with error "Unable to connect to the remote browser".
