I’m still new to python and I was experimenting with selenium. It opens a Firefox browser when I use it directly from the Windows terminal. But when I change the directory to desktop and try to open the browser from there, it say the ‘geckodriver’ isn’t in Path. I have the driver in path
This is my code:
from selenium import webdriver
browser = webdriver.Firefox()
And sometimes the browser opens but it closes immediately
>Solution :
According to docs: Selenium Documentation, you have to initiate driver, you can do this with hard coded location, example:
from selenium.webdriver.firefox.service import Service
from selenium import webdriver
service = Service(executable_path="/path/to/geckodriver")
driver = webdriver.Firefox(service=service)
then, to take an action on browser, you need to get a page, example:
driver.get("https://www.selenium.dev/selenium/web/web-form.html")
