Play YouTube video until finished

I am using a Selenium to code python script to search and play a YouTube video.
This is my code:
import time
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.service import Service
from webdriver_manager.chrome import ChromeDriverManager
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
# Defining video name
video_name = "4k art"
driver = webdriver.Chrome(service=Service(ChromeDriverManager().install()))
driver.maximize_window()
wait = WebDriverWait(driver, 3)
presence = EC.presence_of_element_located
visible = EC.visibility_of_element_located
# Navigate to url with video being appended to search_query
driver.get('https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query={}'.format(str(video_name)))
# play the video
wait.until(visible((By.ID, "video-title")))
driver.find_element(By.ID, "video-title").click()
# Wait for video to end
So, everything works fine, but I would like to know what is the best way to have the script wait until the video is finished before finishing? I saw different ways to do so using YouTube API or using Selenium with elements appearing. Is there a preferred way to do it?

You could look for the replay button and if it comes up exit the loop
wait=WebDriverWait(driver,10)
While True:
try:
wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH,"//button[#aria-label='Replay']")))
break
except:
pass
Imports:
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC

It depends on what functionality you are testing.
In case you don't care about actual GUI presentation and just wish to get indication that the video is finished and you can do it with some API - do it with API. This is much more fast and stable approach.
In case you need to test the actual video finished on the GUI - you should wait for the appropriate web element with Selenium.
In this case you can use the solution given by Arundeep

Creating a GUI for Selenium

I want to create a GUI for this code that automatically downloads PDF's. But I am not sure where to start. These are 2 inputs I need to change.
drp.select_by_visible_text('**Dan Pitts**')
checkfield=wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH,'//*[#id="FieldCheckBox-**701847**"]')))
So just 2 input boxes and then have a submit button for it to open chrome and start.
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import Select
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
import time
driver=webdriver.Chrome()
driver.get('')
username=driver.find_element_by_xpath('//*[#id="username"]')
username.send_keys('')
password=driver.find_element_by_xpath('//*[#id="password"]')
password.send_keys('')
login=driver.find_element_by_xpath('/html/body/pcs-root/pcs-site-wrapper/div/div/div/div/pcs- login/div/form/button')
login.click()
time.sleep(10)
driver.switch_to.frame('pcsIFrame')
growerlist=driver.find_element_by_xpath('//*[#id="GrowerDropDownList"]')
drp=Select(growerlist)
drp.select_by_visible_text('**Dan Pitts**')
wait=WebDriverWait(driver,30)
getfields=driver.find_element_by_xpath('//*[#id="GetFieldsButton"]')
getfields.click()
##time.sleep(4)
checkfield=wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH,'//*[#id="FieldCheckBox-**701847**"]')))
checkfield.click()

I have put the two input boxes in and it does work for the Grower. I cant seem to get it to work with xpath though.

Not Able to See Entire Page Source of Website using Selenium,Python

I am trying to scrape this website
https://script.google.com/a/macros/cprindia.org/s/AKfycbzgfCVNciFRpcpo8P7joP1wTeymj9haAQnNEkNJJ2fQ4FBXEco/exec
I am using selenium and python.I am not able to view entire page source,Basically i have to scrape the table inside it and click on next button,but the code of next and table not visible on page source.Here is my code
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import Select
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
from selenium.common.exceptions import TimeoutException
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
from selenium import webdriver
browser = webdriver.PhantomJS()
browser.get(link)
pass1 = browser.find_element_by_xpath("/html/body/div[2]/table[2]/tbody/tr[1]/td/div/div/div[2]/div[2]")
pass1.click()
time.sleep(30)
I am getting this error,NoSuchElementException.

There are two iframes present on the page, so you need to first switch on those iframe and then you need to click on the element.
And you can apply explicit wait on the element so that the script waits until the element is visible on the page.
You can do it like:
browser = webdriver.PhantomJS()
browser.get(link)
browser.switch_to.frame(driver.find_element_by_id('sandboxFrame'))
browser.switch_to.frame(driver.find_element_by_id('userHtmlFrame'))
WebDriverWait(browser, 20).until(EC.presence_of_element_located((By.XPATH, "//div[contains(#class,'charts-custom-button-collapse-left')]//div"))).click()
Note: You have to add the following imports:
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC

How to search and play a video on YouTube using Selenium in Python?

I want to search and play a video using Selenium in Python.
Here is the code:
import time
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
driver = webdriver.Chrome()
driver.maximize_window()
driver.get(www.youtube.com)
wait = WebDriverWait(driver, 3)
presence = EC.presence_of_element_located
visible = EC.visibility_of_element_located
# Search for the video.
time.sleep(1)
wait.until(visible((By.NAME, "search_query")))
driver.find_element_by_name("search_query").click()
driver.find_element_by_name("search_query").send_keys(video)
driver.find_element_by_id("search-icon-legacy").click()
# Play the video.
wait.until(visible((By.ID, "video-title")))
driver.find_element_by_id("video-title").click()
But the problem is, it plays the first video on the home page before it completes searching.
Can you guys suggest how to play the video?

You could bypass the need of starting off at the homepage completely by appending the desired search query to the search_query parameter :)
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
driver = webdriver.Chrome()
driver.maximize_window()
wait = WebDriverWait(driver, 3)
presence = EC.presence_of_element_located
visible = EC.visibility_of_element_located
# Navigate to url with video being appended to search_query
driver.get('https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query={}'.format(str(video))
# play the video
wait.until(visible((By.ID, "video-title")))
driver.find_element_by_id("video-title").click()

Wait for page redirect Selenium WebDriver (Python)

I have a page which loads dynamic content with ajax and then redirects after a certain amount of time (not fixed). How can I force Selenium Webdriver to wait for the page to redirect then go to a different link immediately after?
import time
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
from selenium.common.exceptions import TimeoutException
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
driver = webdriver.Chrome();
driver.get("http://www.website.com/wait.php")

You can create a custom Expected Condition to wait for the URL to change:
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
wait = WebDriverWait(driver, 10)
wait.until(lambda driver: driver.current_url != "http://www.website.com/wait.php")
The Expected Condition is basically a callable - you can wrap it into a class overwriting the __call__() magic method as the built-in conditions are implemented.

There are several ExpectedConditions that can be used along with ExplicitWait to handle page redirection:
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
driver = webdriver.Chrome()
wait = WebDriverWait(driver, 10)
Wait for new page title with title_is(title_name):
wait.until(EC.title_is('New page Title'))
Wait for current URL to be changed to any other URL with url_changes(exact_url):
wait.until(EC.url_changes('https://current_page.com'))
Wait for navigating to exact URL with url_to_be(exact_url):
wait.until(EC.url_to_be('https://new_page.com'))
Also
url_contains(partial_url) could be used to wait for URL that contains specified substring or url_matches(pattern) - to wait for URL matched by passed regex pattern or title_contains(substring) - to wait for new title that contains specified substring

It's a good practice to "wait" for unique (for new page) element to appear.
You may use module expected_conditions.
For example, you could wait for user logo on signing in:
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.common.exceptions import TimeoutException
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
driver = webdriver.Firefox()
driver.get('http://yourapp.url')
timeout = 5
try:
logo_present = EC.presence_of_element_located((By.ID, 'logo_id'))
WebDriverWait(driver, timeout).until(logo_present)
except TimeoutException:
print "Timed out waiting for page to load"
