The new Microsoft Edge is a browser based on Chromium and was released on January 15, 2020. It is available on both Windows and macOS.


As it's built upon the Chromium browser engine, it also provides a Microsoft Edge WebDriver very similar the chromedriver.


We have updated our systems to include the most recent stable version (79 at time of writing), available on our Windows 10 + macOS Mojave VMs.

Automated Testing on Microsoft Edge Chromium

To get started, all you need to do is make sure the desired capabilities of your test are set correctly:

You will receive screenshots, logs and a video of your automated test, running on Microsoft Edge 79.
