EdgeDriver only supports characters in the BMP?

Hi @be chan ,

Unfortunately, ChromeDriver (EdgeDriver) only supports characters in the BMP is a known issue, but till now the support for other characters has not been added yet.

However, you can use the following workaround to add emojis:

JS_ADD_TEXT_TO_INPUT = """
  var elm = arguments[0], txt = arguments[1];
  elm.value += txt;
  elm.dispatchEvent(new Event('change'));
  """
driver = webdriver.Edge()
driver.get("https://google.com/")
elem = driver.find_element("xpath", "//textarea[@name='q']")
text = "🌎"
driver.execute_script(JS_ADD_TEXT_TO_INPUT, elem, text)
