in Arch-like systems, you might use $ pacman -Qs chromium for getting Chromium version. If you want to fully automate this, you probably need to built in command line parameters and pipe chrome version into your Python script. You also might use zipfile library to extract the zip file after a successful download. The result of these steps will be a zip file with a chrome driver in the current directory (from where you ran the script). Version_response = requests.get(url + version)įinally, it's time to download the zip file (if it exists): if version_response.text:įile = requests.get(url_file + version_response.text + '/' + file_name)
Now I'll let the user choose a version, and I get the version from the site: version = input() Then I'll save the necessary links into two varibles + I define the file name of the desired version of chrome driver: url = '' Let's have a look at a few lines in Python, I'll outline the main flow and you might want to build it more powerful (like command line parameters etc.)įirst I'll import requests: import requests You need to follow these steps, and you need to choose a tool in which you implement them. (Python only) include the path to ChromeDriver when instantiating webdriver.Yes, it can be done.(Java only) specify its location via the system property (see sample below).include the ChromeDriver location in your PATH environment variable.Help WebDriver find the downloaded ChromeDriver executable.Download the ChromeDriver binary for your platform under the downloads section of this site.You can also force ChromeDriver to use a custom location by setting a special capability. Ensure Chromium/Google Chrome is installed in a recognized locationĬhromeDriver expects you to have Chrome installed in the default location for your platform.If you are unfamiliar with Selenium WebDriver, you should check out the Selenium site.įollow these steps to setup your tests for running with ChromeDriver: It is maintained by the Chromium team with help from WebDriver contributors. You can also read Getting Started with Android or Getting Started with ChromeOS SetupĬhromeDriver is a separate executable that Selenium WebDriver uses to control Chrome.
This page documents how to start using ChromeDriver for testing your website on desktop (Windows/Mac/Linux).
