Cannot connect to browser ECONNREFUSED

When I try the base case example provided in the README with hacker news, here is the error I get back in my console:

Cannot connect to browser: { Error: connect ECONNREFUSED 127.0.0.1:9222

same issue

UPDATE:

I was able to get this script work by installing Google Chrome Canary and running it as a headless browser.

@amite @hishamhaniffa I'm running regular Google Chrome 61.0.3163.100 on a Mac.

Did you use the --headless option as specified in README?
