How to launch Selenium webbrowser with Python

Question

enter image description here

driver = webdriver.Chrome("D:\\Selenium program\\Chrome\\chromedriver.exe")
AttributeError: module 'selenium.webdriver' has no attribute 'Chrome'
Process finished with exit code 1

Can any one help me with this error?

I believe your question is very incomplete.

To run Selenium with Chrome you need to install ChromeDriver. You can either download it and install, or use NPM (npm install chromedriver --global).

If you're sure you have it installed, alongside with Python, and everything is working, then here's a basic example (from ChromeDriver page).

import time
from selenium import webdriver

driver = webdriver.Chrome('/path/to/chromedriver')  # Optional argument, if not specified will search path.
driver.get('http://www.google.com/xhtml');
time.sleep(5) # Let the user actually see something!
search_box = driver.find_element_by_name('q')
search_box.send_keys('ChromeDriver')
search_box.submit()
time.sleep(5) # Let the user actually see something!
driver.quit()

The error your getting (AttributeError: module 'selenium.webdriver' has no attribute 'Chrome' Process finished with exit code 1) seems to be because you don't have ChromeDriver installed.

In your code (the image you linked to the question) you're using webbrowser.open(url, new=2). Try to open using driver.get(url) to see if it works.

Here's another similar question, if you want to check.
