[🐛 Bug]: Unable to trigger the Test with specific Browser version in Selenium Grid

[arunkumarr88]

What happened?

Im using selenium 4.26 with openJdk 11.0.2. I have a selenium grid with 10 machines. When i try to run the test with specific browser version, the tests goes in queue and fails.

Refer below grid ui image where thetest goes in queue.

How can we reproduce the issue?

public RemoteWebDriver startGrid(String browser) throws Exception {
		log.info("Going to setup grid...");
		int resolutionWidth;
		int resolutionHeight;
		String[] resolution = ReadPropertyFile.getInstance().getPropertyValue("resolution").split(",");
		String headlessFlag = ReadPropertyFile.getInstance().getPropertyValue("headlessFlag");
		resolutionWidth = Integer.parseInt(resolution[0]);
		resolutionHeight = Integer.parseInt(resolution[1]);
		MutableCapabilities cap = new MutableCapabilities();
		cap.setCapability("platformName", "ANY");
		if (browser.equalsIgnoreCase(BrowserConstants.CHROME_BROWSER)) {
			cap.setCapability("browserName", BrowserConstants.CHROME_BROWSER);
			ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
			**options.setBrowserVersion(ReadPropertyFile.getInstance()
	    	        .getPropertyValue("browserVersion"));**
			if (headlessFlag.equalsIgnoreCase("true")) {
				options.addArguments("--headless=new");
			}
			options.addArguments("--incognito");
			Map<String, Object> profile = new HashMap<>();
			Map<String, Object> prefs = new HashMap<>();
			prefs.put("profile", profile);
			prefs.put("credentials_enable_service", false);
			prefs.put("profile.password_manager_enabled", false);			
			options.setExperimentalOption("prefs", prefs);
			options.addArguments("--ignore-ssl-errors=yes");
			options.addArguments("--ignore-certificate-errors");
			options.addArguments("--disable-search-engine-choice-screen");
			options.addArguments("--disable-features=OptimizationGuideModelDownloading,OptimizationHintsFetching,OptimizationTargetPrediction,OptimizationHints");			
			options.setExperimentalOption("excludeSwitches", Collections.singletonList("enable-automation"));
			options.setExperimentalOption("useAutomationExtension", false);
			options.setCapability("se:name", getTestcaseName());
			options = options.merge(cap);
			log.info("Going to get Driver instance from thread local class...");
			
			RemoteCustomDriver.getInstance().setRemotedriver(new RemoteWebDriver(new URL(getHubUrl()), options));			 
			SessionId sessionId = (RemoteCustomDriver.getInstance().getRemotedriver()).getSessionId();

			nodeIp = getNodeIp(sessionId);
			RemoteCustomDriver.getInstance().getRemotedriver().manage().deleteAllCookies();
			RemoteCustomDriver.getInstance().getRemotedriver().navigate().to(getUrl());
		} else if (browser.equalsIgnoreCase(BrowserConstants.FIREFOX_BROWSER)) {
			cap.setCapability("browserName", BrowserConstants.FIREFOX_BROWSER);
			FirefoxOptions options = new FirefoxOptions();
			**options.setBrowserVersion(ReadPropertyFile.getInstance()
	    	        .getPropertyValue("browserVersion"));**
			if (headlessFlag.equalsIgnoreCase("true")) {
				options.addArguments("--headless=new");
			}
			options.addArguments("-private");
			options.merge(cap);
			log.info("Going to get Driver instance from thread local class...");
			RemoteCustomDriver.getInstance().setRemotedriver(new RemoteWebDriver(new URL(getHubUrl()), options));
			RemoteCustomDriver.getInstance().getRemotedriver().manage().deleteAllCookies();
			RemoteCustomDriver.getInstance().getRemotedriver().navigate().to(getUrl());
		} else if (browser.equalsIgnoreCase(BrowserConstants.EDGE_BROWSER)) {
			cap.setCapability("browserName", BrowserConstants.EDGE_BROWSER);
			EdgeOptions options = new EdgeOptions();
			**options.setBrowserVersion(ReadPropertyFile.getInstance()
	    	        .getPropertyValue("browserVersion"));**
			if (headlessFlag.equalsIgnoreCase("true")) {
				options.addArguments("--headless=new");
			}
			options.addArguments("--ignore-ssl-errors=yes");
			options.addArguments("--ignore-certificate-errors");
			options.addArguments("--disable-search-engine-choice-screen");
			options.addArguments("--disable-features=OptimizationGuideModelDownloading,OptimizationHintsFetching,OptimizationTargetPrediction,OptimizationHints");	
			options.merge(cap);
			log.info("Going to get Driver instance from thread local class...");
			RemoteCustomDriver.getInstance().setRemotedriver(new RemoteWebDriver(new URL(getHubUrl()), options));
			SessionId sessionId = (RemoteCustomDriver.getInstance().getRemotedriver()).getSessionId();

			nodeIp = getNodeIp(sessionId);
			RemoteCustomDriver.getInstance().getRemotedriver().manage().deleteAllCookies();
			RemoteCustomDriver.getInstance().getRemotedriver().navigate().to(getUrl());
		} 
		RemoteCustomDriver.getInstance().getRemotedriver().navigate().refresh();
		RemoteCustomDriver.getInstance().getRemotedriver().manage().window()
				.setSize(new Dimension(resolutionWidth, resolutionHeight));
		RemoteCustomDriver.getInstance().getRemotedriver().manage().timeouts().pageLoadTimeout(Duration.ofSeconds(30));
		RemoteCustomDriver.getInstance().getRemotedriver().manage().timeouts().scriptTimeout(Duration.ofMinutes(2));
		RemoteCustomDriver.getInstance().getRemotedriver().manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(Duration.ofSeconds(30));
		String version = RemoteCustomDriver.getInstance().getRemotedriver().getCapabilities().toString();
		System.setProperty("Browser/Driver Versions", version);
		return RemoteCustomDriver.getInstance().getRemotedriver();
	}

Below are the commands that i'm using to start the server.
**For Hub :**   java -jar selenium-server-4.26.0.jar hub --session-request-timeout 1300  --log-level "info" --log C:\Selenium4.23GridHub\hublog.log
**For Node :**  java -jar selenium-server-4.26.0.jar node --session-timeout 1000 --max-sessions 4 --selenium-manager true --detect-drivers true --publish-events tcp://10.50.12.39:4442 --subscribe-events tcp://10.50.12.39:4443 --log-level "info" --log C:\Selenium4.23GridNode\nodelog.log
