import selenium

[xina towner]

Hello, I've problems importing selenium module, I try this:

from selenium import webdriver

and it says it can resolve. I've installed selenium using pip install selenium.

What am I missing?

Hi,

Maybe you missed to add selenium in INSTALLED_APP in settings.py ...

selenium is not a django app, it is a python library:

http://pypi.python.org/pypi/selenium

Only django apps need to go in INSTALLED_APPS. Please don't blindly
recommend people to put stuff into INSTALLED_APPS unless you know what
it is for.

OP: It works for me (see log below). Try reinstalling?

Cheers

Hi,
I have been working with selenium from quite a lot time.

There are three things you need to build and run functional test cases
using selenium.

Since selenium is a browser based testing environment you need a
server that serves it. So you need:
1. selenium-server-standalone-2.18.0.jar

For python to understand selenium functions you need a selenium
library. So you need:
2. selenium-2.19.1.tar.gz

And last you need someone to write the test cases for you! So you need
and IDE, a browser plugin that helps you build them
3. Selenium IDE

You may download it from here- http://seleniumhq.org/download/

HOW TO SETUP SELENIUM LIB:
Once you have downloaded selenium-2.19.1.tar.gz, extract it and move
to the extracted directory on command line.
Write the following command once you are in the selenium-2.19.1 dir:
$ python setup.py build
$ python setup.py install

If you encounter a setup tool error, you might need to install setup
tools. Read docs for how to do it or simply google :)

And if this doesnt work!! simply open the directory copy selenium py
(location: selenium-2.19.1/py/selenium/selenium.py) and paste it in
your dist-packages. Since selenium.py doesn't come with much
dependencies copying works, although its not ethical.

Hope this helps.
