Login for web-scraping help
An alternative is to use a package like playwright (or Selenium) to run a browser remotely and login.

Show HN: Use cookies from Chrome (CDP) in cURL without copy pasting
Using the tools at hand is often the best approach. That said, I've spent most of the last 13 years of my career automating browsers. For years, I used Selenium with a variety of libraries. After switching to Puppeteer/Playwright, I have zero interest in going back lol. Playwright actually has first party Python support. (Puppeteer has a port called Pyppeteer, but it's no longer maintained and the author recommends using Playwright)

- Any extension to automate workflow in automatic1111?
- Can Requests be used to make a call to a js script? Need some guidance.

I can't find any good Python Selenium tutorials out there. Anyone got any good links to video tutorials or even dcoumentatniton?
This is pretty great for web automation https://playwright.dev/python/

will requests-html library work as selenium
Last I checked, pyppeteer wasn't a thing anymore, and I haven't tried Playwright but if it has a headless mode, thats what you want so you don't have a browser open.

Toggle Line Comments in other languages?
there are cases where a file contains at least 2 programming languages . A case like this is when using the playwright-python library i.e. the code is mainly in python, but it can contain also JS code within a page.evaluate() function. When I try to comment out some lines within the page.evaluate() function, VS Code uses the "#" symbol, instead of "//". I can use multiple cursors to insert the "//"., but it's not so convenient, So I was wondering if there is a way to tell VS Code that this part of code is JS and it should use "//" for commenting out or if there is a plugin that can do this job (I didnt find one...)

Is there a better alternative to selenium, that run headless by default?
Playwright is pretty cool: https://github.com/microsoft/playwright-python

16 Best Ruby Frameworks For Web Development [2024]
Cuba takes help from a lot of other technologies to bring the best of everything. For example, the responses in Cuba are the optimized version of the Rack responses. The templates are integrated via Tilt and testing via Cutest and Capybara.

I am going to use a browser based testing tool called Playwright (But you could use Capybara, or Selenium WebDriver etc.).

Building GitHub with Ruby on Rails
Even as a much smaller team, building Heii On-Call [0] as a lightweight alerting/monitoring/on-call rotations SaaS based on Ruby on Rails has basically been a pleasure!
And as the article highlights, perhaps the key reason for smooth deployments and upgrades is that the CI testing story is so, so good: RSpec [1] plus Capybara [2] for us. That means we have decently extensive tests of just about all behavior. The few small Rails and Ruby upgrades we've done have gone quite smoothly and confidently, with usually just a few non-Rails gem dependencies needing to be manually updated as well.
The "microservices" story is where we've pulled in the Crystal programming language [3] to great effect. After dabbling with Go and Rust, we've found that Crystal is truly a breath of fresh air. Crystal powers the parts of Heii On-Call that need to be fast and low-RAM, specifically the inbound API https://api.heiioncall.com/ and the outbound HTTP(S) prober background processes. I've ported some shared utility classes from Ruby to Crystal almost completely by just copy-and-pasting ___.rb to ___.cr; porting the tests for those classes was far more onerous than porting the class code itself. (Perhaps another point of evidence toward the superiority of RoR's testing story...)
The front-end story is nice but just a bit weaker. Using Hotwire / Turbo successfully, but I have an open PR to fix a fairly obvious stale cache bug in Turbo [4] that has been sitting unloved for nearly a month, despite other users reporting the same issue. I'm hopeful that it will get merged in the next release, but definitely less active than the backend side.
For me, the key conclusion is that the excellent Ruby on Rails testing story is what enables everything to go a lot more smoothly and have such a strong foundation. I'd be curious if any GitHubbers can talk more about whether they too are using Rspec+Capybara or something else? Are there internal guidelines for test coverage?

Using Capybara to test responsive code
Engineering at Aha! focuses on using and improving the Capybara test framework. We have added many helpers and additional functionality to make working with Capybara easy. Testing at mobile widths is another chance to improve our testing tooling. Here is the incremental approach that we used to add mobile testing helpers.

Minitest vs. RSpec in Rails
Since the Capybara library drives the underlying tests, Minitest also has the same syntax.
- Is it a common practice to test JS code in a browser instead of Node.js?

Testing Strategies For Microservices
We can write component tests with any language or framework, but the most popular ones are probably Cucumber and Capybara.

From partials to ViewComponents: writing reusable front-end code in Rails
The nice thing about partial templates is that templates are unit-testable with View specs (or similarly in Minitest) and the rendered output can even be verified using Capybara matchers.

Tip: if you're changing all your form_for to form_with, take the opportunity to make sure all forms are being tested.
To piggyback: This would be a type of browser test, so you would want to use something like Cypress (https://github.com/testdouble/cypress-rails) or Capybara (https://github.com/teamcapybara/capybara). RSpec has a good integration with Capybara. Cypress is JS-based so it will require some additional config.

Validating Views with Capybara Queries
When you write a system test (or, as we prefer, a system spec) with Ruby on Rails, you're exercising the whole stack from the point of view of the user. So, naturally, you have to do things like make sure that certain elements are on the page and work as you expect when you click on then, type in them, and drag them around. Capybara works exceedingly well for this, giving you a lovely API for querying HTML.
