Fix RunTimeError

in Selenium

Solution

RuntimeError in Selenium often arises when resources, like ports, are already in use or not properly released. To fix this, ensure you close the WebDriver instance (driver.quit()) after each test to release resources. Additionally, handle exceptions gracefully and use try-finally blocks to guarantee cleanup even if errors occur.
