binary = FirefoxBinary('C:\\Program Files\\Mozilla Firefox\\firefox.exe')
newpath = 'C:\\home\\DebanjanB'
if not os.path.exists(newpath):
    os.makedirs(newpath)

profile = webdriver.FirefoxProfile()
profile.set_preference("browser.download.dir",newpath)
profile.set_preference("browser.download.folderList",2)
profile.set_preference("browser.helperApps.neverAsk.saveToDisk", "text/plain,text/x-csv,text/csv,application/vnd.ms-excel,application/csv,application/x-csv,text/csv,text/comma-separated-values,text/x-comma-separated-values,text/tab-separated-values,application/pdf")
