ViewsJavaScriptException in execute_script method
def send(self, message):
try:
textArea = self.driver.find_element_by_xpath("//textarea[@placeholder='Message...']")
textArea.clear()
self.driver.execute_script("arguments[0].value='" + message + "'", textArea) # Error right here
textArea.send_keys(Keys.SPACE)
sendButton = self.driver.find_element_by_xpath("//button[contains(text(), 'Send')]").click()
except NoSuchElementException or StaleElementReferenceException as ex:
print("Исключение в send()")
print(ex)
Up to this point, the fifth line worked, but now I just can’t figure out what the problem is. And the variables have correct values.

You seem to be running into escaping troubles. If message contains a quote character, for example O'Hara, you'd end up with a syntax error in the executed JavaScript code:
arguments[0].value='O'Hara'
The solution is to use the arguments array that you're already using, to pass the message string as well:
self.driver.execute_script("arguments[0].value = arguments[1]", textArea, message)

Assuming message is a string, you can use setAttribute inside execute_script like below:
textArea = self.driver.find_element_by_xpath("//textarea[@placeholder='Message...']")
self.driver.execute_script(f"arguments[0].setAttribute('value', '{message}')", textArea)
to pass message variable into textArea web element.
