I'm unable to use Safari browser on macos with selenium webdriver-3.11.0 and python-3.6 I've followed steps below:

Downloaded safari extension from seleniumhq.org checked allow remote automation on safari browser.

Executed code:

from selenium import webdriver
driver = webdriver.Safari()

Got error:

There is a bug in Safari webdriver which is fixed but not released yet. If you really want to make it work, you can "patch" Safari webdriver by adding line 25 and 49 https://github.com/SeleniumHQ/selenium/commit/2a0f63d19bd6e666ad432ee459762489d6b6033a
