Running Edge browser on Selenium in MacOs (Catalina)

can someone help to run it one Python & MacOS ( catalina?)

I've tried to use it on windows environment, works as expected, but unfortunately, cannot do it on mac. it seems that some configuration is needed

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.action_chains import ActionChains
from selenium.webdriver.firefox.options import Options as options
from selenium.webdriver.firefox.service import Service
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By



class Website:
    def __init__(self):

      self.driver = webdriver.Edge(executable_path='/Users/dannyk/Downloads/msedgedriver')

    def reach_web_docker(self):
        self.driver.maximize_window()
        self.driver.get('http://127.0.0.1:9080/')



if __name__ == '__main__':
    reg1 = Website()
    reg1.reach_web_docker()

And i get the following error, which unfortunately doesnt really explain what the issue is

>> runfile('/Users/dannyk/PycharmProjects/new_prj/t1.py', wdir='/Users/dannyk/PycharmProjects/new_prj')
/Users/dannyk/PycharmProjects/new_prj/t1.py:16: DeprecationWarning: executable_path has been deprecated, please pass in a Service object

so, to answer it , and thanks to @Deepak-MSFT , that worked.

all was needed two things:

  1. send the driver path (in my case, i was needed to move it locally, and send abs path

  2. send capabilities. Also, i've removed all the capabilities, and put an empty dictionary.

here's the code.

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.action_chains import ActionChains
from selenium.webdriver.firefox.options import Options as options
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By


desired_cap = {
}

class Website:
    def __init__(self):

      self.driver = webdriver.Edge(executable_path='/Users/dannyk/PycharmProjects/new_prj/msedgedriver',capabilities=desired_cap)

    def reach_web_docker(self):
        self.driver.maximize_window()
        self.driver.get('http://127.0.0.1:9080/')


if __name__ == '__main__':
    reg1 = Website()
    reg1.reach_web_docker()

I try to check the error message and found this exception.

selenium.common.exceptions.SessionNotCreatedException: Message: session not created: No matching capabilities found

It looks like you need to pass the capabilities to run this code on MAC OS.

Here is the example of Capabilities that you can try to pass.

desired_cap = {
"os" : "OS X",
"os_version" : "Catalina",
"browser" : "Edge",
"browser_version" : "83.0",
"browserstack.local" : "false",
"browserstack.selenium_version" : "3.5.2"
}

You can modify the values as per your environment.

Reference:

selenium.webdriver.common.desired_capabilities

You need to pass the desired capabilities as a parameter in this line. 

self.driver.get('http://127.0.0.1:9080/')

You can make a test and let us know about your test results.
