Use selenium Ide and export test case in python

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import Select
from selenium.common.exceptions import NoSuchElementException
import unittest, time, re

class Test1(unittest.TestCase):
    def setUp(self):
        self.driver = webdriver.Firefox()
        self.driver.implicitly_wait(30)
        self.base_url = "https://www.facebook.com/"
        self.verificationErrors = []
        self.accept_next_alert = True

    def test_1(self):
        driver = self.driver
        driver.get(self.base_url + "/")
        driver.find_element_by_id("email").clear()
        driver.find_element_by_id("email").send_keys("username")
        driver.find_element_by_id("pass").clear()
        driver.find_element_by_id("pass").send_keys("password")
        driver.find_element_by_id("u_0_b").click()
        driver.find_element_by_xpath("//div[@id='u_ps_0_1_5']/div/div").click()
        driver.find_element_by_link_text("1 Requests").click()
        driver.find_element_by_id("globalContainer").click()

    def is_element_present(self, how, what):
        try: self.driver.find_element(by=how, value=what)
        except NoSuchElementException, e: return False
        return True

    def is_alert_present(self):
        try: self.driver.switch_to_alert()
        except NoAlertPresentException, e: return False
        return True

    def close_alert_and_get_its_text(self):
        try:
            alert = self.driver.switch_to_alert()
            alert_text = alert.text
            if self.accept_next_alert:

    def tearDown(self):
        self.driver.quit()
        self.assertEqual([], self.verificationErrors)
