Is Microsoft Edge supported by Selenium?
I'm new to webdriver.
Selenium is the only testing software I'm using for this project. But when I test the website in IE and Google Chrome, I found some errors:
Internet Explorer (IE) cannot use a custom profile to launch Internet Explorer. For more information, please see the following Microsoft Knowledge Base article: Selenium has issues in IE 10 & 11. They can not recognize an input field of a HTML form, nor click a button with a name attribute. Here is the sample code in my browser:
The result I get is as follows: When I type text into an input field of a HTML form, I got the message: Microsoft Edge doesn't have a feature called "Search field". For more information, see I used the following code for my webdriver program: from selenium import webdriver from selenium.common.keys import Keys from selenium.actionchains import ActionChains import sys import os import random print ("Welcome to the test") driver = webdriver.Edge() driver.implicitlywait(15) driver.get("") ele1 = driver.clear() ele1.sendkeys("hello world") ele1.sendkeys(Keys.ENTER) ele1.sendkeys(Keys.TAB) ele1.sendkeys(Keys.ENTER) ele1.sendkeys(Keys.TAB) ele1.sendkeys(Keys.ENTER) ele1.sendkeys(Keys.TAB) ele1.sendkeys(Keys.ENTER) ele1.sendkeys(Keys.
How to use Edge browser in Selenium?
How do I know when I am inside a content editing website, such as Microsoft word.
I need to write an automation test with selenium and the edge browser but I don't know if the web page is hosted by Microsoft word or someone else. Is there any way I could distinguish the web page being editied?
You can use the following script to identify whether the browser is within Microsoft Word or not. Var document = Driver.Browser("Microsoft Edge").Page("");
If(document.Url.Contains("office/word"))
Console.WriteLine("Using Microsoft Word"); Console.WriteLine("Not using Microsoft Word"); Output: Hope this helps!
How do I set Edge options in Selenium?
I have the edge package installed.
I found that when i'm in "Advanced Settings" there's 3 different options for Web Browser. There is Internet Explorer 8, Internet Explorer 7, and Edge. When I click edge I get an error saying "Edge is not supported". Any ideas why this happens?
You will need to download your own version of the driver (the "edge-html-chromium driver"). It is a bit complex and not entirely automated, but here's the way to get it on Linux: Open up the file downloaded at and select Open with Codeblock in Code::Blocks. Choose File, then New Project. Navigate to where you want to install the application. In my case, C:Usersuser-name Find X86 - 32-bit and double-click. Now, this may not be completely stable; the application seems to work, but often the website I'm scraping doesn't like the codeblock installer, so make sure that you check your log messages if you get any errors and keep them somewhere safe. Open the log file with the IDE. After about 45 seconds, you should see some text and after another 15 seconds, more text. Open up your C:Usersuser-nameDownloads folder. Locate the file that has all those .txt files in it Open the file called webdriverlog.txt with the IDE Look for error messages and write them down. I think that this guide can also work with a Windows application, just edit step 4.
