I got tripped up by the error message generated by this line
https://github.com/django/django/blob/2c76c27a951ee76c6f763a05c7e119305a21c78d/tests/runtests.py#L329
The issue was that I didn't have selenium installed. However, the error
message I received was
{{{
runtests.py: error: argument --selenium: Selenium browser specification
'chrome' is not valid.
}}}
Therefore much head scratching trying to think about what was wrong with
chrome/webdriver rather than not having selenium installed. Maybe there is
something better we could do here?
