Chromedriver version 115 not found

Question

With chromedriver version above 115, this has stopped working:

driver = webdriver.Chrome()

with the error

There is no such driver by url https://chromedriver.storage.googleapis.com/LATEST_RELEASE_115.0.5790.

As suggested here selenium webdriver chrome 115 stopped working, this works:

service = Service(ChromeDriverManager(version="114.0.5735.90").install())

But that doesn't seem like a good ongoing solution. Is there a better way?

Answer 1

The only thing that worked is updating the webdriver-manager to 4.0.0

With this package update the old syntax

driver = webdriver.Chrome(ChromeDriverManager().install(), options=chrome_options)

started to work again :)

The Service argument is available only from Selenium 4.10

Answer 2

You can use WebDriver-Manager to automaticly update the driver's version.
Install webdriver-manager:

pip install webdriver-manager

For Chrome:

# selenium 3
from selenium import webdriver
from webdriver_manager.chrome import ChromeDriverManager

driver = webdriver.Chrome(ChromeDriverManager().install())

# selenium 4
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.service import Service as ChromeService
from webdriver_manager.chrome import ChromeDriverManager

driver = webdriver.Chrome(service=ChromeService(ChromeDriverManager().install()))
