Selenium WebDriver with Python 3.x

Ubuntu 16.04 desktop

Python 3.5.2 |Anaconda 4.2.0 (64-bit)

Selenium 3.141.0

pip install -U selenium

Selenium requires a driver to interface with the chosen browser.

Firefox, for example, requires geckodriver <https://github.com/mozilla/geckodriver/releases>_, which needs to be installed before the below examples can be run. Make sure it's in your PATH, e. g., place it in /usr/bin or /usr/local/bin.

Failure to observe this step will give you an error selenium.common.exceptions.WebDriverException: Message: 'geckodriver' executable needs to be in PATH.

Other supported browsers will have their own drivers available. Links to some of the more popular browser drivers follow.
