How can I download and configure Edge web Driver for automation tasks?

 In the context of selenium, here are the steps given for edge driver download:-

Download the Web Driver:-

Use the right sources for downloading the compatible Microsoft Edge web Driver binary for your particular system. You can download it by direct links or using a package manager.

Set up a driver in the testing framework

After downloading the Microsoft Edge web Driver, configure your testing framework for recognizing and using the downloaded web Driver. This generally includes setting the path of the system including the location of the web driver.

Here is the example given in Python by using selenium, assuming that you have downloaded the Microsoft Edge web driver binary:-

From selenium import web driver

Import os

# Set the path to the downloaded Edge WebDriver executable

Edge_driver_path = “/path/to/your/edgedriver.exe”

# Set environment variable for the WebDriver path (optional but recommended)

Os.environ[“PATH”] += os.pathsep + os.path.dirname(edge_driver_path)

# Initialize the WebDriver with Selenium

Driver = webdriver.Edge(executable_path=edge_driver_path)

# Example usage: navigate to a website

Driver.get(https://example.com)

# Perform automated testing actions…

By using these above steps and examples one can easily download and even configure the Selenium web driver.
