Verifying that web drivers are installed
On newer versions of SeleniumBase, the driver is automatically downloaded to the seleniumbase/drivers folder, and does not need to be on the System Path when running tests.
Drivers can be manually downloaded with commands such as:
sbase install chromedriver
sbase install chromedriver latest
sbase install geckodriver
sbase install edgedriver
If you want to check that you have the correct driver installed on your System PATH (which is no longer necessary unless using the Selenium Grid), then continue reading below:
This assumes you've already downloaded a driver to your System PATH with a command such as:
sbase install chromedriver --path
(The above --path addition is for Linux/Mac only, which uses /usr/local/bin/. The "Path" is different on Windows, and you'll need to manually copy the driver to your System Path, which is defined in the Control Panel's System Environment Variables.)
You can verify that the correct drivers exist on your System Path by checking inside a Python command prompt.
