run a based selenium script from my web hosting

Question

I have a python script generated from selenium, it works fine on my localhost.

Now I want to run it from my web hosting, I already checked that my web hosting support python.

If not possible, is there an alternative solution for selenium?

        else:
            alert.dismiss()
        return alert_text
    finally: self.accept_next_alert = True

def tearDown(self):
    self.driver.quit()
    self.assertEqual([], self.verificationErrors)

I found a good alternative based on google's puppeteer library. All information that do you need is in this web page pypeteer

You can install it using: pip install pyppeteer

Here an example of code to take a screenshoot:

import asyncio
from pyppeteer import launch

async def main():
 browser = await launch()
 page = await browser.newPage()
 await page.goto('https://example.com')
 await page.screenshot({'path': 'example.png'})
 await browser.close()

asyncio.get_event_loop().run_until_complete(main())
