Gradle with Selenium Testing failing in Github Actions but passing locally – Ubuntu

I am currently working on trying to connect Selenium automation scripts to be run using Github action. I decided on using Gradle from how easy it looked to use when running these Selenium tests locally and in Github actions. I have been able to get these Selenium tests to work just fine locally using ./gradlew test. I have also been writing all of this using Visual Studio Code.

Here is my gradle.yml:

name: Java CI with Gradle

on:
  push:
    branches: ["dev"]
  pull_request:
    branches: ["dev"]

permissions:
  contents: read

jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest

    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v3
      - name: Set up JDK 19
        uses: actions/setup-java@v3
        with:
          java-version: "19"
          distribution: "temurin"
      - name: Grant execute permission for gradlew
        run: chmod +x gradlew
      - name: Build with Gradle
        run: ./gradlew clean test

Here is my build.gradle file:

/*
 * This file was generated by the Gradle 'init' task.
 *
 * This is a general purpose Gradle build.
 * Learn more about Gradle by exploring our samples at https://docs.gradle.org/8.0.1/samples

 */
plugins {
    id 'java'
}

repositories {
    jcenter()
}

dependencies {
    testImplementation 'junit:junit:4.13'
    implementation 'org.seleniumhq.selenium:selenium-java:4.1.1'
    testImplementation("io.github.bonigarcia:webdrivermanager:5.3.2")
}

settings.gradle file:

    if (System.getenv("CI") != null) {
        buildScan {

            termsOfServiceAgree = "yes"
        }

And my Selenium java file:

public class CIHomePage {

    private WebDriver driver;

    @BeforeClass
    public static void setupWebdriverChromeDriver() {
        WebDriverManager.chromedriver().setup();
    }

    @Before
    public void setup() {
        ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
        options.addArguments("--headless", "--disable-gpu", "--window-size=1920,1200","--ignore-certificate-errors","--disable-extensions","--no-sandbox","--disable-dev-shm-usage");
        driver = new ChromeDriver(options);
        driver.manage().window().maximize();
        driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(10, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
    }

    @After
    public void teardown() {
        if (driver != null) {
            driver.quit();
        }
    }

    @Test
    public void homePageTitle() throws InterruptedException{
        WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait (driver, 45);
        driver.get("https://notarealurl.com");
        driver.findElement(By.id("Ecom_Password")).sendKeys("notarealpassword");
        driver.findElement(By.id("Ecom_User_ID")).sendKeys("notarealusername");
        driver.findElement(By.id("loginButton2")).click();
        wait.until(ExpectedConditions.titleIs("Continuous Improvement - Event Name Overview"));

    }

}

When these test run in Github actions I receive this error.

Exception

From what I can tell, the error keeps happening when Selenium is trying to log into SSO and can’t get past this page to be directed to the site that I am working on. I have been able to get this to work just fine locally on my machine. This also is not an issue when Selenium isn’t directed to log into our SSO. I have been able to get the scripts to work just fine when directing to a site without our SSO.

I am not sure if it is an issue with how I set up my gradle.yml file or need to do something different with how I wrote the Selenium test file.
