Documentation for Webdriverio to run different browsers(Opera, Microsoft Edge etc)

See original GitHub issue

Pre-check

  • I’m aware that I can edit the docs and submit a pull request

I’d like to report

  • Unclear documentation
  • A typo
  • Missing documentation
  • Other

A clear and concise description. there should also be a documentation on how to run different browsers(Opera, Microsoft Edge, Safari) in webdriverio as it gets very confusing for the freshers who are trying to learn and work with webdriverio. i have set capabilities for microsoft edge { browserName: ‘MicrosoftEdge’ } services: [ ['selenium-standalone', { logPath: 'logs', installArgs: { drivers: { // chrome: { version: '85.0.4183.83' }, edge: { version: '80.0.600.0' } } }, args: { drivers: { // chrome: { version: '85.0.4183.83' }, edge: { version: '80.0.600.0' } } }, }] ], but its not working. I keep on receiving error: Failed to create session. Unable to connect to local http://127.0.0.1:4444/wd/hub make sure browser driver is running on that address.
