I am trying to run Selenium on a local HTML string but can't seem to find any documentation on how to do so. I retrieve HTML source from an e-mail API, so Selenium won't be able to parse it directly. Is there anyway to alter the following so that it would read the HTML string below:
Python Code for remote access:
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
driver = webdriver.Firefox()
driver.get("http://www.python.org")
assert "Python" in driver.title
elem = driver.find_element_by_class_name("q")
Local HTML Code:
s = "<body>
<p>This is a test</p>
<p class="q">This is a second test</p>
</body>"

If you don't want to create a file or load a URL before being able to replace the content of the page, you can always leverage the Data URLs feature, which supports HTML, CSS and JavaScript:
from selenium import webdriver
driver = webdriver.Chrome()
html_content = """
<html>
<head></head>
<body>
<div>
Hello World =)
</div>
</body>
</html>
"""
driver.get("data:text/html;charset=utf-8,{html_content}".format(html_content=html_content))
