Embed Selenium initiated chrome browser in winform

Question

I have build a c# Windows Form application which required both automation and human interaction on the Chrome browser opened by selenium.

Currently 3 separate windows open 1. My Winform application 2. Selenium Console 3. The Chrome browser

I would like to embed both the console (will embed but hide from view) and the browser opened in the application itself. I have found this answer explaining how to embed the console application.

Add some code showing what you've done so far. – SimonC Apr 23 '19 at 12:57 — SimonC, Apr 23 '19 at 12:57

The link you've provided gives you some example code to work off. That allows you to embed the console in to your WinForms window.

I then found this link, which goes a bit more in-depth in to the matter. Granted, the link is rather old but it should get you started in the right direction.

Regarding the links provided by the page I linked, Selenium provides NuGet packages for C#:

install-package selenium.webdriver
install-package selenium.webdriverbackendselenium
install-package selenium.support

That should at least provide you with a decent start.
