Python Selenium Tutorial - Automate Websites and Create Bots

I would note that many modern websites including Google use random class names in their HTML which are dynamically generated. This could be an anti-scraping measure, or it could be the result of the framework used (I believe Angular does this). So that specific class name you are using in the example will probably not work by the time anyone reads this. As a better alternative, you can find an element with CSS or Xpath for more reliable results. To use CSS, change the code to find_element(By.CSS_SELECTOR

Tim, how do i navigate the problem where I run the code and it prompts me with the cookies reject or accept, google sign in page? If i try to login in the program instance google tells me it is not a supported platform, and if I login from my actual chrome browser it doesnt change anything? should I add code that scrolls down and presses the accept or reject button, or is there a way to completely bypass the popup window?

AttributeError: 'WebDriver' object has no attribute 'get_element'

why?

Hi, Tim. Wouldn't be easier to use webdriver_manager library where it gets the last version of the driver to match the browser you have installed? because everytime you have a version upload you have to download it and retest this?

More selenium tutorial please, keep up the great content

This was very helpful. Thank you very much.

Woah, i wanted that! thanks

DUDE I NEEDED THIS AND YOU JUS UPLOADED IT XD

Thank you for your videos! I love them.

When I make a comment adding information based on my experience, it's always suppressed.
What is the reason?
For instance here I commented about a Python module helping with drivers installation.

tim whats your vs code settings for syntax colors I've tried some methods but none of them was working for example (ctrl + K + T) can you make a video about that or if you already have one tag me please

great!!, thanks for the tutorial just what i needed

Does selenium still need us to install the drivers, i thought its now installed with the selenium 4.10

You should do an updated selenium series 🔥 would love that, some automation testing for things like SDET or QA

Selenium = fun with Tim 🎉

wow thats so cool. i can use that.

Cool

Thanks! I enjoyed learning Selenium. ALTHOUGH, can someone help with my issue? I did exactly what Tim instructed on one computer (ran perfectly), but after sending myself the code to do the same on another computer, I ran into an issue where Selenium states in the terminal that it's "unable to locate or obtain driver for chrome". The driver is the .exe and it's in the same folder.
I'm currently trying to figure it out on this second computer but if someone has any tips, I'd appreciate it.

You go way too fast for this 65-year-old brain, but I understand, a slower pace would be boring for young programmers. But for the first time, I have a handle about the concepts of web scraping. You are using the Selenium Python library to bot web surfing. Too cool!

Great one, this is what i'm looking for, Automation, web scraping, bots, pytho automation, Qa automation.. Thank you so much. You are amazing.

I feel nostalgic, I remember watching your selenium series a few years ago

It doesn't work for me :( , after launching the browser I see info about accepting or rejecting cookies and I can't get to the search element .Error > selenium.common.exceptions.ElementNotInteractableException: message: element not interactable

You are a genius 🔥
Your effort is remarkable ❤

This is excellent, love everything about this!

i get paid a lot of money doing this

Love your tutorials. I use xpath quite often when trying to find what to click on. In chrome, when you right click and inspect an element, it brings up the page source. Then if you right click the item that you are looking for, you can copy the xpath and paste it in your program as well.

thanks, wanted to do this yesterday and kinda messed it up. (the old videos to selenium and the new driver) now everything works fine <3

You are the BEST

One question still remains: how to upload Selenium to a remote server and run it? For me, it's #1 reason why I try to avoid using Selenium.

Thank you so much for this.
