How do I set up Selenium for testing my web application?

To set up Selenium, you'll need to install the Selenium WebDriver and a browser driver. Which programming language are you using?

I'm using Python. What are the steps?

First, install the Selenium package using pip: pip install selenium. Then, download the appropriate WebDriver for your browser.

How do I write a simple test script?

You can start with this basic script:

from selenium import webdriver

# Set up the WebDriver
driver = webdriver.Chrome()  
# Open a webpage
driver.get('http://example.com')
# Close the browser
driver.quit()

What if I want to run tests in headless mode?

You can run tests in headless mode by adding options to your WebDriver. For Chrome, use:

from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
options = Options()
options.headless = True
driver = webdriver.Chrome(options=options)
