How to ensure team-members have ChromeHeadless available?

[mikecfisher]

I'm trying to migrate my team off of phantomjs to ChromeHeadless. However the 2 big questions that keep popping up are:

1. How do we make sure everyone has ChromeHeadless available and the same version?

2. How do we make our unit tests run on a CI box that doesn't have any browsers installed at all?

I've looked around and am struggling to answer both of these questions. Any ideas?

got the same problem the good thing about phantomjs was the ability to download it automatically with npm

one solution might be to run the tests inside vagrant/docker containers but I hope a better solution will be found.

alternative: use Puppeteer instead which embeds Chrome inside the package

the downloader code from puppeteer could be found in this two files:
