Question

I have updated the selenium chromedriver to 76.0.3809.68 and the existing tests started to fail with new Select(webElement).selectByVisibleText(value) is failin

Answer 1

Not just selectByVisibleText even selectByValue was also throwing the same Exception

"org.openqa.selenium.WebDriverException: unknown error: script returns unexpected result".

I faced this issue with chrome v76. I upgraded the chrome version to 77 and tested with ChromeDriver 76 and 77 which works fine now.
