🚨 Most Beginners Learn Selenium the WRONG Way
They start by memorising commands:
👉 click()
👉 send_keys()
👉 find_element()
👉 get()
…and then wonder why Selenium feels confusing. 😵💫
Here’s the thing:
Selenium is not really about writing commands.
It’s about understanding what happens between your code and the browser. 🌐
When you write:
driver.find_element(By.ID, "login").click()
Do you know what actually happens behind the scenes?
Your Python code → Selenium WebDriver → Browser Driver → Browser → Web Page
And that’s where things start getting interesting. 🔥
Once you understand this flow, concepts like:
✅ WebDriver
✅ Locators
✅ Browser automation
✅ Waits
✅ XPath
✅ Page Object Model
✅ Automation frameworks
become MUCH easier to understand.
🎯 Mini Challenge:
Without Googling…
What do you think happens between driver.find_element() and the browser actually clicking the element?
