Python bindings for Selenium
Project description
Selenium Python Client Driver is a Python language binding for Selenium Remote Control (version 1.0 and 2.0).
Currently the remote protocol, Firefox and Chrome for Selenium 2.0 are supported, as well as the Selenium 1.0 bindings. As work will progresses we’ll add more “native” drivers.
See here for more information.
