What happened?
I am developing a Django application, and I want to test how it behaves in Safari. I treat all deprecation warnings as errors during development so I am alerted when something becomes deprecated and can update my code accordingly.
When I try to create a Safari WebDriver instance, the Safari WebDriver.__init__ passes desired_capabilities=DEFAULT_SAFARI_CAPS to its superclass's __init__, which will then raise a DeprecationWarning stating that desired_capabilities shouldn't be used. If I try to set desired_capabilities to None, the Safari __init__ raises a DeprecationWarning stating that I should use the options argument instead of changing the desired_capabilities value.
Below is the output I got when trying to start a Safari instance using selenium:
