If you run Chrome or Firefox tests within a Docker container make sure you set capabilities so that the session is headless, e.g.:

capabilities: {
  browserName: 'chrome',
  'goog:chromeOptions': {
    args: ['--no-sandbox', '--headless']
  }
}

or Firefox:

capabilities: {
  browserName: 'firefox',
  'moz:firefoxOptions': {
    args: ['-headless']
  }
}

If you are looking for more sophisticated Docker container that allows you to run browser, check out the Docker Selenium project.
