I want to use selenium to create several email addresses at once. I suppose they can be random but I already have a list of the email account names I want to create.

I know how to create 1 email using webdriver but how would I go about it if I want to sign up several, one after the other automatically, without having to always change the code?

Simple code for creating 1 email:

from selenium import webdriver
import time

url = 'https://hotmail.com/'

driver = webdriver.Chrome('/C:Users/Desktop/chromedriver')
driver.get(url)

driver.find_element_by_xpath("//a[contains(@class, 'linkButtonSigninHeader')]/@href").click()
time.sleep(2)

driver.find_element_by_id('MemberName').send_keys('usernameexample')
time.sleep(1)

driver.find_element_by_id('iSignupAction).click()
time.sleet(2)

driver.find_element_by_id('PasswordInput').send_keys('Passwordexample1')
time.sleep(1)

driver.find_element_by_id('iSignupAction').click()
time.sleep(2)

driver.find_element_by_id('FirstName').send_keys('john')
time.sleep(1)

driver.find_element_by_id('LastName').send_keys('wayne')
time.sleep(1)

driver.find_element_by_id('iSignupAction').click()

As others have pointed out, you could iterate over a data collection, such as an array:

array_of_usernames = ['username_one', 'username_two']

array_of_usernames.each do |username|

 url = 'https://hotmail.com/'

 driver = webdriver.Chrome('/C:Users/Desktop/chromedriver')
 driver.get(url)

 driver.find_element_by_xpath("//a[contains(@class, 'linkButtonSigninHeader')]/@href").click()
 driver.find_element_by_id('MemberName').send_keys("#username") #INTERPOLATED BLOCK-LOCAL VARIABLE HERE
 driver.find_element_by_id('iSignupAction).click()
 driver.find_element_by_id('PasswordInput').send_keys('Passwordexample1')
 driver.find_element_by_id('iSignupAction').click()
 driver.find_element_by_id('FirstName').send_keys('john')
 driver.find_element_by_id('LastName').send_keys('wayne')
 driver.find_element_by_id('iSignupAction').click()

 # some step to log out so that next username can register

end

If you aren't familiar with arrays or iteration, then I'd suggest looking at the docs to get your head around it: https://ruby-doc.org/core-2.6.1/Array.html#method-i-each
