I am new to selenium. I have downloaded a portable Firefox and trying to use it in my code but haven't had any success.

Here's the code I am using:

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.firefox.firefox_binary import FirefoxBinary

binary = FirefoxBinary('path/to/installed firefox binary')
browser = webdriver.Firefox(firefox_binary=binary)

Here's the exception I am getting:

WebDriverException: Message: 'geckodriver' executable needs to be in PATH.

copy geckodriver in /usr/local/bin – Manoj Kengudelu Nov 14 '18 at 03:39
I passed `executable_path=/path/to/geckodriver` as second argument to `webdriver.Firefox` but still got WebDriver exception. – user6037143 Nov 14 '18 at 08:26
