[Python] Python: How to hide output Chrome messages in Selenium?

What I want to do:


I want to open Chrome browser using Selenium ChromeDriver without the Chrome messages getting output to the console.

What I did:


from selenium import webdriver
driver = webdriver.Chrome(r'C:\Users\u1\Documents\scripts\chromedriver.exe')

Output:


C:\Users\u1\Documents\scripts>python test.py

DevTools listening on ws://127.0.0.1:50605/devtools/browser/11c9063a-44ce-4b39-9566-9e6c6270025c


I want to hide the output message "DevTools listening on..."

What I tried to solve this:

Using contextlib


from selenium import webdriver
import contextlib

with contextlib.redirect_stdout(None):
driver = webdriver.Chrome(r'C:\Users\u1\Documents\scripts\chromedriver.exe')

Using devnull


from selenium import webdriver
import subprocess

devnull = subprocess.DEVNULL
subprocess.Popen(open_browser(), stdout=devnull, stderr=devnull)
def open_browser():
driver = webdriver.Chrome(r'C:\Users\u1\Documents\scripts\chromedriver.exe')

Using log-level=3


chrome_options = Options()
chrome_options.add_argument("--log-level=3")
driver = webdriver.Chrome(r'C:\Users\u1\Documents\scripts\chromedriver.exe', chrome_options=chrome_options)


But still the message is getting displayed. How do I hide the output message "DevTools listening on..." in Python?
