Help: How to Execute GeckoDriver with Selenium in Python Notebook?

  • 1.  Help: How to Execute GeckoDriver with Selenium in Python Notebook?

    Posted Tue April 28, 2020 10:24 AM
    In a notebook cell, I installed GeckoDriver with the following terminal command: 
    !conda install -c conda-forge geckodriver​

    and found its directory in path using the following terminal command: 
    !ls /path/to/{$PATH}​

    When trying to initialise a Firefox session with Selenium as below: 
    from selenium import webdriver

driver = webdriver.Firefox(executable_path, options)​

    such that 
    executable_path = '/path/to/geckodriver/dir/geckodriver'
options = var webdriver.FirefoxOptions()​


    These are the same codes I use when working locally (MacOS Catalina) and performed just fine. 

    However, on the cloud of Watson Studio, the kernel was interrupted with the following error: 

    Unable to find a matching set of capabilities


    How shall I proceed to resolve the issue?
