JavaScript language bindings for Selenium WebDriver. Selenium automates browsers for testing and web-based task automation.

Requires Node.js >= 22.

npm install selenium-webdriver

const { Builder, Browser } = require('selenium-webdriver')

;(async function example() {
  let driver = await new Builder().forBrowser(Browser.CHROME).build()
  try {
    await driver.get('https://www.selenium.dev')
    console.log(await driver.getTitle())
  } finally {
    await driver.quit()
  }
})()

Selenium Manager automatically handles browser driver installation — no manual driver setup required.

The Builder sets default options for all browsers in a single chain; options for non-selected browsers are dropped at build() time. The target browser can be swapped at runtime via the SELENIUM_BROWSER environment variable.

const { Builder, Browser } = require('selenium-webdriver')
const chrome = require('selenium-webdriver/chrome')
const firefox = require('selenium-webdriver/firefox')

let driver = new Builder()
  .forBrowser(Browser.FIREFOX)
  .setChromeOptions(new chrome.Options())
  .setFirefoxOptions(new firefox.Options())
  .build()

To run scripts against a Selenium Grid or standalone server, point the Builder at the server URL, or set SELENIUM_REMOTE_URL:

let driver = new Builder().forBrowser(Browser.CHROME).usingServer('http://localhost:4444').build()

SELENIUM_REMOTE_URL="http://localhost:4444" node script.js

selenium-webdriver supports the Node.js versions under active upstream support. Each is supported until its end-of-life date; after that it is unsupported.

CI tests the earliest and latest supported versions available in rules_nodejs; issues and pull requests are welcome for any supported version.
