Hi I just downloaded and installed selenium but, I can't figure out how to get it working I am using the following example as a test....
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
driver = webdriver.Firefox() #this is where I hit the error
driver.get("http://www.python.org")
assert "Python" in driver.title
elem = driver.find_element_by_name("q")
elem.send_keys("selenium")
elem.send_keys(Keys.RETURN)
assert "Google" in driver.title
driver.close()
I do not have firefox installed on my computer is this why it is giving me an error? this is the error output I get when I try and run it
Traceback (most recent call last):
