Running Selenium WebDriver python bindings in chrome

There are 2 ways to run Selenium python tests in Google Chrome. I'm considering Windows (Windows 10 in my case):

Prerequisite: Download the latest Chrome Driver from: https://sites.google.com/a/chromium.org/chromedriver/downloads

Way 1:

i) Extract the downloaded zip file in a directory/location of your choice
ii) Set the executable path in your code as below:

self.driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path='D:\Selenium_RiponAlWasim\Drivers\chromedriver_win32\chromedriver.exe')

Way 2:

i) Simply paste the chromedriver.exe under /Python/Scripts/ (In my case the folder was: C:\Python36\Scripts)
ii) Now write the simple code as below:

self.driver = webdriver.Chrome()
