[🐛 Bug]: DeprecationWarning raised by default init args of Chrome webdriver

[drammock]

What happened?

#13286 introduced a DeprecationWarning:

setting remote_server_addr in RemoteConnection() is deprecated, set in ClientConfig instance instead

We're seeing this warning on a very simple use case that uses only default webdriver options except for headless. Seems like the culprit is probably this line:

selenium/py/selenium/webdriver/chromium/webdriver.py

Line 58 in db343b9

remote_server_addr=self.service.service_url,

but I'm unfamiliar with your codebase so I'm not sure what the right fix would be.

How can we reproduce the issue?

our usage looks like this:


from selenium import webdriver
options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
options.add_argument("--headless=new")
driver = webdriver.Chrome(options=options)  # <- this line triggers the DeprecationWarning
