You can pass in a chrome_option for detach: true -
https://sites.google.com/a/chromium.org/chromedriver/capabilities
caps = Selenium::WebDriver::Capabilities.chrome(chrome_options: {detach:
true})
Watir::Browser.new :chrome, desired_capabilities: caps
When the code exits it sends the command to kill the chromedriver process.
If with detatch == true it doesn't force all Chrome browsers opened by that
driver to also close. They will of course close if you have your code set
to execute `browser.close`.
