We started a project called Clicknium this year, a Python automation library for browser and desktop applications. It depends on the Clicknium browser extension to control the browser, and simulate mouse and keyboard actions. Since January 2022, adding new extensions based on Manifest V2 to the Chrome Web Store has been forbidden. All extensions on Manifest V2 will stop working in early 2023, even those that were added to Chrome Web Store earlier.

In this case, attaching the existing browser is necessary for the automation script to handle the same browser which human works on. We are introducing the browser attaching method for different automation libraries here, containing Selenium, Playwright, and Clicknium.

Clicknium is a Python GUI automation library that supports both desktop and web browser automation. It is generally used as a replacement for RPA, test automation, and web scraping.

Clicknium supplies an automation library and development tool, and it can improve developer efficiency and automatically generate locators for elements on any UI (web, desktop application, etc.). The auto-generated locator is a good choice for many general cases. However, based on some of the scenarios described above, the attributes used for positioning may be dynamic, which requires users to modify the locator. The Clicknium development tools provide multiple functions to help developers easily pick which attributes are used to locate UI elements and to make the final locator more stable.

As the list is dynamically loaded, I use an iterate index to search each item, as clicknium can automatically scroll the item into view, it will trigger to load new items, so I don't need to take care of the dynamic loading.

Clicknium provides the automation technology in a variety of scenarios with different forms, such as SAP automation, Java automation, Windows desktop automation and image automation. I would like to share the automation technology in Clicknium.

I have been building an open-source quantum chemistry web platform in the last two years (https://github.com/cyllab/CalcUS). I use it extensively for my own research, but few other people seem to have tried it so far.
