Please, set "CHROME_BIN" env variable inside docker npm test

node.js docker jenkins npm automated-tests

Instead of exporting the variable, can you try setting it with

ENV CHROME_BIN=/usr/bin/google-chrome

Generally, setting environment variables with ENV is recommended, see here for a more detailed discussion.

node.js docker jenkins npm automated-tests

The docker run command accepts env file by the -env-file flag.

So, you can add a new env file with the following

CHROME_BIN=/usr/bin/google-chrome

and pass this file to docker run command

docker run --env-file ./env.list -t -d ${BUILD_NAME}

refer here for the official docs

This way, we don't puppeteer just to set the env variable.

node.js docker jenkins npm automated-tests

For test, use docker image with chromeheadless

for example, use docker image of angular/ngcontainer instead of node. This has all configurations done for testing UI apps

Dockerfile

  docker pull angular/ngcontainer

Jenkins CI

  docker.image('angular/ngcontainer').inside {                     npm run test  }
