I found a headless IE from this github project headless-selenium-for-win
Which has the following files
desktop_utils.exe
headless_ie_selenium.exe
I extracted these files to C:\Selenium\headless-selenium
I used Selenium Python library to control IE(GUI) using IEDriverServer.exe
which works well but when I use headless_ie_selenium.exe
my script just went into endless execution and prints nothing.
Here is my Python Code
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
#driver = webdriver.Ie(r"C:/Selenium/IEDriverServer.exe")
driver = webdriver.Ie(r"C:/Selenium/headless-selenium/headless_ie_selenium.exe")
driver.get("www.google.com")
googleSearch = driver.find_element_by_name("q")
googleSearch.send_keys("Selenium")
googleSearch.send_keys(Keys.ENTER)
import time
time.sleep(4)
print driver.title
May be problem in slashes...
Your path: C:/Selenium/headless-selenium/headless_ie_selenium.exe
Try this: C:\Selenium\headless-selenium\headless_ie_selenium.exe
and another:
Your: driver.get("www.google.com")
Try this: driver.get("https://www.google.com")
I added the path of
IEDriverServer.exe
to System Variablepath
and after restarting my system the everything works fine.
