01. Selenium | Setting

1. Intro

I'm going to explain how to install a selenium web driver.
Below thing is the information I will use.

Editor: Pycharm
Language: Python
Brower: Chrome

 

2. Install

1) Install Selenium

I'm going to use 'pip' for installing selenium on the terminal

pip3 install selenium

 

 

2) Check installation

Check if selenium is properly installed in Pycharm.
Go to settings and Project. Check the package and version.

 

 

3) Download chrome driver

URL: https://chromedriver.chromium.org/downloads
The important thing when you download is that the downloaded driver and chrome browser must be the same version.
If you have chrome browser version 96, you should download the driver version  96.

 

 

3. Test

from selenium import webdriver
import time

class test():
    def test(self):
        # Instantiate Chrome Browser Command
        driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path="D:\\workspace_python\\drivers\\chromedriver.exe")

        # Open the provided URL
        driver.get("http://www.google.com")
        time.sleep(5)

cc = test()
cc.test()

 

There is a deprecation warning when the code is executed.
This warning is caused by executable_path.

 

 

4. Solution

I'm going to use chrome as a Service.

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.service import Service
import time

class test():
    def test(self):
        # Instantiate Chrome Browser Command
        s = Service('D:\\workspace_python\\drivers\\chromedriver.exe')
        driver = webdriver.Chrome(service=s)

        # Open the provided URL
        driver.get("http://www.google.com")
        time.sleep(5)

cc = test()
cc.test()

 

Now, there is no warning.

 

 

 

This is for studying English and Selenium webdrivers.
So, the English may not be good enough.
