Answer 1

Go with PhantomJS but if running them in chromedriver is required and you have the resources, this blog has a good recipe on running headless selenium with chrome. Requiring you to download the following...

• VirtualBox
• Vagrant
• NodeJS

If you plan to implement Jenkins or any other CI in the future, I strongly suggest going with PhantomJS though.
