I had a problem running executing a Webdriver using a script in python using the library selenium. I have posted the sample code scenarios as well as the corresponding error thrown while executing.
Code Scenario:
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
driver = webdriver.Firefox()
driver.get("http://www.python.org")
Error Scenario:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:/Users/Kaushik/Desktop/IMC DEVELOPER TEST/Sample.py", line 4, in <module>
driver = webdriver.Firefox()

startupinfo)
WindowsError: [Error 87] The parameter is incorrect
I coudnt understand the Error thrown. I just need to use the selenium library to retrieve a dynamic data from a website using a python script.
