Using Selenium in a maven project












1















I created a MavenTestProject in Eclipse with these dependencies:



<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>junit</groupId>
<artifactId>junit</artifactId>
<version>4.12</version>
<scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.seleniumhq.selenium</groupId>
<artifactId>selenium-java</artifactId>
<version>3.141.59</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>


Now my maven dependencies folder contains drivers for these browsers:



Maven dependencies



What are these libraries for? Can I just use them? Or do I still need to download other .exe files to use the drivers like mentioned in other posts?
