Hi mate, So I decided to put your theory to the test :-). I downgraded my firefox (after some investigation Webdriver doesn't seem to work with 38) and I changed my tests to run with Firefox and it worked from the Jenkins GUI (albeit with a test error which I'm trying to figure out now!). Something to do with Chrome then!
Thank you for all the help you've given me! Short of finding out what I'd need to open up on the firewall I think I'll have to accept defeat with using the Chromedriver (for now)!
