Selenium WebDriver is a popular open-source tool for automating web browsers. It allows developers and testers to write scripts that interact with web pages in the same way a user would, such as clicking buttons, filling out forms, and navigating between pages.

Below is an example of how to use Selenium WebDriver with each find_element method. The example automates searching on a search engine (Google):

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys

# keeps chrome open
chrome_options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
chrome_options.add_experimental_option("detach", True)

# create the driver and go to google page
driver = webdriver.Chrome(options=chrome_options)
driver.get("<https://www.google.com>")

# find the search box enter the key and press the enter button
search_box = driver.find_element(By.ID, "APjFqb")
search_box.send_keys("Selenium Webdriver tutorial")
search_box.send_keys(Keys.ENTER)

# choose first result click it and go to that page
first_search_result = driver.find_element(By.CLASS_NAME, "kb0PBd")
first_search_result.click()

driver.quit()

Here are some other Selenium WebDriver projects I created during the "100 Days of Code: The complete Python Pro Bootcamp" course from Udemy, available on my GitHub page.

• Automating Job Applications on Linkedin
• Auto Tinder Swiping Bot
• Internet Speed Twitter Complaint Bot
• Instagram Follower Bot
• Data Entry Job Automation

At the end, if you can choose elements without much difficulty, creating bots with Selenium is easy and also very enjoyable.
