from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys

driver = webdriver.Chrome("E:\QA\Resource\WEBDRIVER\chromedriverserver\chromedriver.exe")

driver.get("https://www.google.com")

Here 

E:\QA\Resource\WEBDRIVER\chromedriverserver\chromedriver.exe  was my location of 

chromedriver.exe.


In Firefox:

from selenium import webdriver

elem = driver.find_element_by_name("q")

elem.send_keys("Hello World!")

In Internet Explorer:
