What is Selenium Python?

How does Selenium work with Python?

I'm trying to learn selenium using python, but I'm having trouble understanding how it works.

I know that you can click a button on a webpage and send a message to the server, but I don't understand how this translates to selenium.

How does clicking a button trigger a selenium test? If you go to python and open up a prompt, then do. >>> import selenium. >>> selenium.webdriver.Firefox()
What will happen? You can start a browser by using the start method of the webdriver. Then you can use the get method to navigate to a URL. The command line is as follows: browser = webdriver.Firefox()

How to test Python code using Selenium?

Can somebody explain, how to test code that is written in Python using Selenium?

In particular, I have a web scraper and a few "integration tests" that are written in python. They all use Selenium to do stuff (login, click buttons etc).

Should I use Selenium directly, or is there a specific framework to integrate it into tests written with unittest? There's no real difference between unittest and selenium. So in the end, your test would be the same if you used either tool. You can even just write your test using unittest, and after you test runs, send the data you get from unittest to selenium, so you end up testing the same thing with two different tools.
