Chromedriver error "Chrome version must be >= 52" using Nightwatch : <p>I'm trying to setup <a href="http://nightwatchjs.org/guide#guide" rel="noreferrer">Nightwatch</a>, and am using the <strong>latest chromedriver</strong> which says it <a href="http://chromedriver.storage.googleapis.com/2.24/notes.txt" rel="noreferrer">supports chrome v52-54</a>. BUT, when I try to run the tests, it says <strong><code>'Error: Chrome version must be &gt;=52.0.2743.'</code></strong> Here's everything that I'm using:</p>

<ul>
<li><a href="https://sites.google.com/a/chromium.org/chromedriver/downloads" rel="noreferrer">ChromeDriver 2.24</a></li>
<li><a href="http://selenium-release.storage.googleapis.com/index.html" rel="noreferrer">Selenium 2.53.1</a></li>
<li><a href="http://nightwatchjs.org/guide#installation" rel="noreferrer">Nightwatch v0.9.8</a></li>
<li><a href="https://nodejs.org/en/" rel="noreferrer">Node v6.5.0</a></li>
<li><a href="http://openjdk.java.net/install/" rel="noreferrer">Java v1.7.0_111</a></li>
</ul>

<p><strong>Project Structure</strong></p>

<pre><code>|-- nightwatch.json
|-- bin/
|   |-- chromedriver
|   |-- selenium-server-standalone-2.53.1.jar
|-- tests/

<p><strong>Running Tests</strong></p>

<p>I run the tests like this:</p>

<p>Anyone know how to resolve this error?</p>

<p><strong><code>Chrome version must be &gt;= 52.0.2743.0</code></strong></p>

<p>Does chromedriver use my local copy of chrome? Do I need to update my actual chrome?</p>
