AttributeError Issue: module 'selenium.webdriver' has no attribute 'Chrome'

Question

I have just started Selenium using Python. And I'm facing the Attribute error issue.

• Have Installed Python 3.6.5 and installed the latest selenium packages(selenium-3.11.0)

• Have also added Scripts and Python folder path in the Environment variable:PATH.

• Downloaded the chromedriver.exe and have added the respective file path into the environment variable.

But while running the below code:

from selenium import webdriver
driver = webdriver.Chrome("E:\Selenium\chromedriver_win32\chromedriver.exe")

It's throwing the following error:

C:\Users\Sooraj\venv\firstpgm\Scripts\python.exe C:/Users/Sooraj/PycharmProjects/Selenium/First.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:/Users/Sooraj/PycharmProjects/Selenium/First.py", line 2, in 
<module>
driver=webdriver.Chrome("E:\Selenium\chromedriver_win32\chromedriver.exe")
AttributeError: module 'selenium.webdriver' has no attribute 'Chrome'

Process finished with exit code 1

Tried all the other solutions provided here in Stack Overflow like uninstalling and reinstalling Python and upgrading the selenium.But was of no help.

The code was run using PyCharm IDE but when run using IDLE it's working fine.

Could find the folders like firefox,chrome,safari,phantomjs,android etc..under Sitepackages -> selenium -> webdriver.But not sure why it is still showing "Webdriver has no attribute chrome"

The above screenshot attached. Shows no module chrome() under webdriver

Any help would be appreciated.

Answer 1

from selenium import webdriver

driver = webdriver.Chrome()

This is the correct way how to write that code, also if u want to use firefox or something else then change chrome to firefox ... also read 1st a documentation and look for some examples, then put it here if u find nothing

Also use pip install selenium !

You can delete the file you recently created. I am facing same issue when i come to this thread and nothing worked for me. I just deleted my recent file and everything works fine :-)

Before creating new python file selenium work fine. it start showing this error when i create new python file in same folder. When i delete the file , everything work fine as before.

This just happened to me. Why does adding a .py file in the same directory break selenium? – Rhettrhetta

Answer 3

you should write it like this : browser = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path=r"chromedriver.exe") and please make sure that you have Google Chrome installed on your system.

I tried your input. chromedriver.exe is already downloaded. and i have added the path in the environment variable . But still it did not work – Shepp

Try using following command instead

driver = webdriver.chrome.webdriver.WebDriver(executable_path='E:\Selenium\chromedriver_win32\chromedriver.exe')

Reference: Official document https://seleniumhq.github.io/selenium/docs/api/py/webdriver_chrome/selenium.webdriver.chrome.webdriver.html#selenium.webdriver.chrome.webdriver.WebDriver

Answer 5

first check google chrome version of your system by using this in URL chrome://version/

then download chrome driver from below mention website according to chrome version https://chromedriver.chromium.org/downloads

then type this in pycharm or sublime text

import selenium

from selenium import webdriver

driver = webdriver.chrome.webdriver.WebDriver(executable_path='C:/drivers/chromedriver_win32 (1)/chromedriver.exe')

driver.get("http://www.python.org")

and RUN, surely it works

Well what you can do is to consider this official page selenium

Three Ways to Use Drivers...

The first way works well. For this you have to install webdrivermanager

pip install webdriver-manager

and then

# selenium 4
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.service import Service
from webdriver_manager.chrome import ChromeDriverManager

driver = webdriver.Chrome(service=Service(ChromeDriverManager().install()))

Answer 10

The issue seems with Pycharm.

Go to Python Packages which would be displayed at the bottom linePycharm Image

There search for selenium and install from there if not installed. Once installation is done rerun the script

If issue persist try to add chromedriver.exe file in C:\Python310\Scripts folder and check once

Answer 11

from selenium import webdriver

driver = webdriver.chrome.webdriver.WebDriver(executable_path='/Users/yatin/Downloads/chromedriver')

driver.get("http://www.python.org")

• this worked perfectly fine in pycharm. Note: you must have already installed the selenium package from the interpreter

and also match the current chrome version and chrome driver you are downloading, should be same version.

though this command will work but this is depricated so here is new one:

from selenium import webdriver

from selenium.webdriver.chrome.service import Service

service_obj = Service("/Users/yatin/Downloads/chromedriver")

driver = webdriver.chrome(service=service_obj)

driver.get("www.netflix.com")

Answer 12

I had the same problem and we solved it!! I installed the newest version of python which is 3.9. I ran it and it yelled at me for selenium. So I went into command prompt and did :

pip install selenium

It installed selenium. I ran it, and it worked.
