Application hangs on `app.start` with version 7+

Currently in the process of evaluating bumping our Spectron version to match the Electron version of an app and am finding that when moving to version 7 app.start never completes. The current version we’re on is Spectron v5 and it’s worked with Electron 3, 4 and 5 without issues; spectron v6 works fine with Electron v5 as well. As soon as the version is bumped to v7 is when this issue manifests.

I’ve even used the bare bones example in the repo to target our distributed binary and the issue is still present. V5 and V6 successfully complete start.app, but v7 and v8 both hang.

add option to you application params: chromeDriverArgs: ['remote-debugging-port=' + Math.floor(Math.random() * (9999 - 9000) + 9000)], It might look like this:

app = new Spectron.Application({
        args: [path.join(__dirname, '..', '..')],
        webdriverOptions: {
            deprecationWarnings: false,
        },
        chromeDriverArgs: ['remote-debugging-port=' + Math.floor(Math.random() * (9999 - 9000) + 9000)],
    });

I’ve downgraded to spectron@5.0.0. That version works fine with electron@7.x.x. 😕
