PyAutoGUI VS Selenium WebDriver

We will see how to take screenshot using python in desktop with the help of pyautogui package this package is used of GUI automation.

Just turn off the monitor https://github.com/asweigart/pyautogui/issues/681

This repository is implemented with reference to pyautogui.

If you can't solve the problem with fixing keyboard layout, there's some kinda workaround: https://github.com/asweigart/pyautogui/issues/249

This will be platform-specific, and will involve some OS-exposed APIs. I’m not familiar with windows and it sounds like that’s what you’re targeting, but check out the code for pyautogui to get you started. You’ll need to port it to C# (or find existing bindings).

PyAutoGUI could be useful to you: https://github.com/asweigart/pyautogui

That uses pyInstaller under the hood, which is supposed to resolve dependencies, but I don't see any imports for cv2 in the pyautogui source (https://github.com/asweigart/pyautogui)

Selenium is an extensively used open-source automation framework for web applications. It allows for cross-browser testing by automating browser actions, making it a staple tool for end-to-end testing in diverse web development environments.

While similar to Puppeteer, Cypress, and Selenium, there are some differences. Let’s find out what they are.

Cypress is a next-generation front-end Automation testing tool built for modern web applications. It is a JavaScript-based end-to-end testing framework and is known for faster test execution as compared with other testing tools (like Selenium or Protractor).

Removing ExpectedConditions from documentation makes sense since it was removed from the codebase around 2019 already.

You won't be able to test the javascript function itself from within python, but you can exercise the front-end code using something like cypress (https://cypress.io) or the older but still respectable selenium (https://selenium.dev).

once you solve this you may run into: https://github.com/SeleniumHQ/selenium/issues/11750, so add that workaround.

Other libraries with similar functionality are Selenium, which is very popular outside the JavaScript world, and Playwright, a younger step-brother of Puppeteer.
