type in browser using python module selenium

Question

There is this website my teacher makes us use to improve our typing skills. Our assignment is due next month and I am too lazy and want to make a program using selenium, a python module. Everything is working according to plan accept one thing, how do I type on the browser. You don't type in a text box. Here is my code:

from selenium import webdriver

driver = webdriver.Chrome('/Users/iyadmajid/Desktop/chromedriver')
driver.set_page_load_timeout(30)
driver.get('https://www.typing.com/student/login')
driver.implicitly_wait(20)
driver.find_element_by_id('username').send_keys('the_username')
driver.find_element_by_name('password').send_keys('the_password')
driver.find_element_by_class_name('submit-login').click()
driver.find_element_by_xpath("//a[@href='/student/lessons/380/numeric-
keypad']").click()
driver.find_element_by_xpath("//a[@class='button begin-button tooltip-
trigger']").click()

This is what the screen looks like after the code finishes executing: the website. I tried using send_keys('6') but that doesn't work. Here is what website code looks like: the website code. Again, if there is a way to type keys on the browser directly, please let me now.

Answer 1

There is, try the PyAutoGui module. It can be installed with pip and can press keys. An example that presses the y key:

import pyautogui
pyautogui.press('y')
