Interesting. I was about to start on some web automation and so far I've had hammered into my head that Selenium is the 'language of the internet' or something along those lines.
What would be a better solution, if you have any to recommend?
- xzel 5y agoI'd suggest Puppeteer / Playwright. Both are great. Iirc the puppeteer team largely moved to playwright.
- kjkjadksj 5y agoPuppeteer is frustrating to me. When I tried to use it I couldn’t get it to click buttons, but I did get it to hover on the button so I know I had the correct element in my code. Their click function just did nothing at all. I resorted to tabbing a certain amount of times and hitting enter.
- melomal 5y agoThank you for the suggestions! I will check them out.
