name 'driver' not defined, Selenium Webdriver python3
I'm trying to open a website using Selenium WebDriver Chrome, but haven't even gotten to that as my code keeps producing errors. I have already fixed one by doubling the '' in the directory for Chrome Driver.
I am using Pycharm. I would like to know why this is happening, and a fix for it.
The error is:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
NameError: name 'driver' is not defined
and this is my code:
from selenium import webdriver
Browser = driver.Chrome(r'''C:UsersballcDownloadschromedriver_win32chromedriver.exe''')
python-3.x selenium selenium-webdriver webdriver pycharm

from selenium import webdriver
you can see the module name is webdriver, so you should use that name. As the error states, driver is not defined (you never defined it).
so..
Browser = driver.Chrome()
should be:
browser = webdriver.Chrome()

from selenium import webdriver
you can see the module name is webdriver, so you should use that name. As the error states, driver is not defined (you never defined it).
so..
Browser = driver.Chrome()
should be:
browser = webdriver.Chrome()
