Detail

Where is each WebDriver binary file saved to?

Each WebDriver will be downloaded to their respective nuget package location:

{solution folder}/packages/Selenium.{browser}.WebDriver. {ver} /driver

{Solution folder}/
|-- packages/
    |-- Selenium.Chrome.WebDriver.{version}/
        |-- driver/
            |-- chromedriver.exe
    |-- Selenium.Firefox.WebDriver.{version}/
        |-- driver/
            |-- geckodriver.exe
    |-- Selenium.InternetExplorer.WebDriver.{version}/
        |-- driver/
            |-- IEDriverServer.exe
    |-- Selenium.PhantomJS.WebDriver.{version}/
        |-- driver/
            |-- phantomjs.exe

{project folder}/
|-- bin/
    |-- {buildconfiguration}/ (each of these driver exe files are copied from above by build process)
        |-- chromedriver.exe
        |-- geckodriver.exe
        |-- IEDriverServer.exe
