Chrome Headless

Chrome Headless runs Google Chrome without a visible user interface for automation and testing.

TIP

UAParser.js distinguishes Chrome by how and where it runs:

• Chrome for the desktop browser.
• Mobile Chrome for the standalone Android and iOS browser.
• Chrome WebView for web content embedded in Android apps.
• Chrome Headless for Chrome running without a graphical interface, commonly during automation.
• Chromium for the open-source browser project on which Chrome is based.
