Selenium python code quits the webpage after execution

January 22, 2024

Selenium code quits the webpage page after executing, although I added the line "driver.quit()" and it quits after loading the webpage.

Note: The browser is Microsoft Edge


    from selenium import webdriver
    from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
    driver = webdriver.Edge()
    driver.get("https://www.youtube.com/?app")
    driver.set_window_size(1285, 824)
    driver.quit()

>Solution :

The driver.quit() method is used to close the entire browser session, and it should be used at the end of your script when you are done with the browser.

Try like this

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
import time

driver = webdriver.Edge()
driver.get("https://www.youtube.com/?app")
driver.set_window_size(1285, 824)

# Add some interactions or operations on the page
# For example, click a button or wait for a few seconds
time.sleep(5)
