Unit test runner is not executing app.run() . So I have headless chrome opened and as per selenium script . URL is changing as per script . But Since application is not started and entire test script fails

Unfortunately this is an issue in Flask. See https://github.com/pallets/flask/issues/2776.

Is there any way to overcome this issue and execute the test_selenium ? Is there any other code that I can change and exexute that file ? How about flask shell ?

You can make it work if you revert to an older version of Flask that does not have this bug. The version in the requirements works fine, if I remember correctly.

Aside from that, you can manually start the server via flask run, and then run your test suite while the manually started server is active.
