driver.get("https://www.selenium.dev/selenium/web/web-form.html")

title = driver.title
assert title == "Web form"

driver.implicitly_wait(0.5)

text_box = driver.find_element(by=By.NAME, value="my-text")
submit_button = driver.find_element(by=By.CSS_SELECTOR, value="button")

text_box.send_keys("Selenium")
submit_button.click()

message = driver.find_element(by=By.ID, value="message")
value = message.text
assert value == "Received!"

The error says you do not have Chrome installed. Please install Chrome as well.

Also, issues related to Selenium should be created here https://github.com/SeleniumHQ/selenium. This is the issue tracker for documentation.

I have installed Chrome and chrome driver already on my system. Still getting this error. I will reopen the issue in the above suggested link. Thanks, @diemol
