(Mac) Chromedriver not found; expected path 'C:/ChromeDriver/chromedriver.exe'

[lyricnz]

On a Mac, it's looking for windows path. Why not look in the path first?

This would be somewhat addressed in PR 20 https://github.com/RahulShaw/LinuxAcademy-DL/pull/20 - but would probably be better to look in the path first.

change the OS type to Darwin and pass the path where chromedriver is located. MacOS is darwin and not Linux.

@nikhil-mongo the existing code doesn't handle Mac at all - it checks for Windows, then defaults to Linux. The PR linked above checks the PATH first, then adds support for Mac.
