By default, `webdriver-manager update` will download the latest ChromeDriver version, which might not be compatible with the Chrome version included in the [docker image used on CI], causing CI failures. Previously, we used to pin the ChromeDriver version on CI in [ngcontainer's Dockerfile][2]. This was accidentally broken in #26691, while moving from ngcontainer to default CircleCI docker images. This commit fixes the issue by pinning ChromeDriver to a known compatible version. [1]:bfd48d156d/.circleci/config.yml (L16)

Encryption
Based on https://github.com/circleci/encrypted-files
In the CircleCI web UI, we have a secret variable called KEY
https://circleci.com/gh/angular/angular/edit#env-vars
which is only exposed to non-fork builds
(see "Pass secrets to builds from forked pull requests" under
https://circleci.com/gh/angular/angular/edit#advanced-settings)
We use this as a symmetric AES encryption key to encrypt tokens like a GitHub token that enables publishing snapshots.
To create the github_token file, we take this approach:
- Find the angular-builds:token in http://valentine
- Go inside the CircleCI default docker image so you use the same version of openssl as we will at runtime:
docker run --rm -it circleci/node:10.12
- echo "https://[token]:@github.com" > credentials
- openssl aes-256-cbc -e -in credentials -out .circleci/github_token -k $KEY
- If needed, base64-encode the result so you can copy-paste it out of docker:
base64 github_token
