Closed 2 years ago.
I have written a code to automate the login process by passing credentials in python and using selenium web driver. So, once the login is done, then the user will need to carry out some task and then he will be the one closing the browser, on closing the browser manually, is it possible to end the chromedriver process as well?

Answer 1

I dont think it is a good idea closing the browser manually. When you do it, you will get an Exception, maybe with message "timed out connecting to Chrome..." or something, because seleniumdriver instance is still running but chrome has gone.
I strongly suggest replacing this step by driver.quit.
BUT
If you really want to close the browser manually, maybe you can try to KILL the chromedriver process after that.
A demo in Java On Windows, like this:
Runtime.getRuntime().exec("taskkill /F /IM chromedriver.exe");

Answer 2

You don't need close manually , you can use close() method in selenium
driver.close();
The Close() method closes the currently open browser window, which has the WebDriver's focus. All other browser windows remain open, and the webdriver's instance remains open and usable too. The Quit() closes all browser windows, and further disposes of the WebDriver instance.
