I keep getting a "name" error with Selenium. What am I doing wrong?

What have I done wrong? I keep getting this error:

============== RESTART: C:\Users\Redacted\Desktop\Autonav_1.py ==============
E ====================================================================== ERROR: test_autonav_1 (main.Autonav_1) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Users\Redacted\Desktop\Autonav_1.py", line 8, in setUp self.selenium = selenium("localhost", 4444, "*firefox", "Redacted") NameError: name 'selenium' is not defined

Ran 1 test in 0.003s
FAILED (errors=1)

Code:

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
from selenium import webdriver
import unittest, time, re

class Autonav_1(unittest.TestCase):
def setUp(self):
    self.verificationErrors = []
    self.selenium = selenium("localhost", 4444, "*firefox" "redacted")
    self.selenium.start() 


def test_autonav_1(self):
    sel = self.selenium
    sel.open("/hub/login.php")
    sel.type("id=Email", "redacted")
    sel.type("id=Password", "redacted")
    sel.click("id=Login")
    sel.wait_for_page_to_load("30000")
    sel.click("link=Internet Retailing")
    sel.wait_for_page_to_load("30000")
    sel.click("id=redacted")
    sel.click("id=redacted")
    sel.wait_for_page_to_load("30000")

def tearDown(self):
    self.selenium.stop()
    self.assertEqual([], self.verificationErrors)

if __name__ == "__main__":
unittest.main()

You are importing webdriver from the selenium library so the name selenium is not bound to anything.

import selenium.webdriver

driver = selenium.webdriver.Chrome('localhost', 4444, '*firefox', '...')

or

from selenium import webdriver

driver = webdriver.Chrome('localhost', 4444, '*firefox', '...')

An import directive introduces a name binding for whatever is to the right of the import keyword. In the first example, two names are bound -- selenium and selenium.webdriver. In the second example only a single name is bound. See the python docs on import for more details.

selenium is the library. You need to use webdriver

def setUp(self):
    self.driver = webdriver.Firefox("localhost", 4444, "*firefox" "redacted")

def test_autonav_1(self):
    driver = self.driver
