Hi @N1lshui ,

Thank you for raising the issue.

Yes there is a missing info in document on running the test.
To execute, please install mocha by npm install mocha and run test using mocha test.js

As this is not an issue with selenium-webdriver i will move this issue to documentation!!!

Thanks,
Sri Harsha

I can tackle this.

Would it be reasonable to add a last step to run the script here?

You can add a comment at the bottom there in the JS tab for how to execute the code: https://github.com/SeleniumHQ/seleniumhq.github.io/blob/trunk/website_and_docs/content/documentation/webdriver/getting_started/first_script.en.md?plain=1#L243
(needs to be updated in all 4 language files)

Can also point people to our example repo for JS.... https://github.com/SeleniumHQ/seleniumhq.github.io/tree/trunk/examples/javascript
Which... prompts #1174 since it should be easy for a user to see how to run those on their machine.

Thanks for your help!

There already is a link to see the code on GitHub at the bottom of the tab.

Do you think it's not enough?

I put the text in other languages in plain English as I, unfortunately, lack language skills, but since quite a chunk of Japanese page is in English anyway, it's acceptable, hopefully.
