Instructions for Windows users
42+
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
43+
44+
1. Install Python 3 using the `MSI available in python.org download page
45+
<http://www.python.org/download>`_.
46+
47+
2. Start a command prompt using the ``cmd.exe`` program and run the ``pip``
48+
command as given below to install `selenium`.
49+
50+
::
51+
52+
C:\Python39\Scripts\pip.exe install selenium
53+
54+
Now you can run your test scripts using Python. For example, if you have
55+
created a Selenium based script and saved it inside
56+
``C:\my_selenium_script.py``, you can run it like this::
57+
58+
C:\Python39\python.exe C:\my_selenium_script.py
59+
60+
61+
Installing from Git sources
62+
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
63+
64+
To build Selenium Python from the source code, clone `the official repository
65+
<https://github.com/SeleniumHQ/selenium.git>`_. It contains the source code for
66+
all official Selenium flavors, like Python, Java, Ruby and others. The Python
67+
code resides in the ``/py`` directory. To build, you will also need the `Bazel
68+
<https://www.bazel.build>`_ build system.
69+
70+
.. note::
71+
72+
Currently, as Selenium gets near to the 4.0.0 release, it requires Bazel 3.2.0
73+
(`Install instructions
74+
<https://docs.bazel.build/versions/3.2.0/install.html>`_), even though 3.3.0
75+
is already available.
76+
77+
To build a Wheel from the sources, run the following command from the repository
78+
root::
79+
80+
bazel //py:selenium-wheel
81+
82+
This command will prepare the source code with some preprocessed JS files needed
83+
by some webdriver modules and build the ``.whl`` package inside the
84+
``./bazel-bin/py/`` directory. Afterwards, you can use ``pip`` to install it.
