selenium-python-helium VS completions

I don't get why people still use XPaths, CSS selectors or HTML IDs to identify elements, even when they are "recorded". Please please please just use my https://github.com/mherrmann/selenium-python-helium instead. It makes so much more sense.

You can, though it might not be the best tool for this. Automation of web entry is better done with selenium, or my favorite variation helium.

Regarding automatic selectors: check out my open source library https://github.com/mherrmann/selenium-python-helium.

quick example https://github.com/mherrmann/selenium-python-helium

If this all fails you'll have to fall back on a web driver like selenium or one of its wrappers like helium.

Simplest would probably be not using Selenium directly, but a wrapper like helium. Most of its functions you'd need are listed here.

If you're talking about CSS I reckon you want to click/input things on a website inside your browser. In this case you would use a web driver which can automate a web browser like Chrome or Firefox. Something like Helium, Selenium or pyppeteer.

I am building _exactly_ the same thing for Playwright over at https://ray.run/. I think this is the future of writing tests no doubt. Planning to launch next week.

Note: Use page.goto('/') and have "baseURL": "http://ray.run" set in the playwright.config.ts file for concise code.

Your website https://ray.run/ does have that nostalgic early 2000s vibe, which is cool! Regarding the search functionality, you might want to explore open-source alternatives to Algolia.

Projects like Elasticsearch, Solr, or even using Google Custom Search can provide search capabilities without the cost. They might require a bit more setup and maintenance, but they can be budget-friendly options for a free community.

For context, this is the website https://ray.run/

I have added a zone to Cloud DNS (GCP) for https://ray.run/

I updated completions library to allow statically typed responses:

import { type Browser, chromium, test as base } from '@playwright/test'; import getPort from 'get-port'; import { playAudit } from 'playwright-lighthouse'; export const test = base.extend<{}, { browser: Browser; port: number }>({ browser: [ async ({ port }, use) => { const browser = await chromium.launch({ args: [`--remote-debugging-port=${port}`], }); await use(browser); await browser.close(); }, { scope: 'worker' }, ], port: [ // eslint-disable-next-line no-empty-pattern async ({}, use) => { // Assign a unique port for each playwright worker to support parallel tests const port = await getPort(); await use(port); }, { scope: 'worker' }, ], }); test.describe('Accessibility Testing with Lighthouse', () => { test('should pass the Lighthouse accessibility audit', async ({ page, port, }) => { await page.goto('https://ray.run/'); await playAudit({ page, port, thresholds: { accessibility: 100, }, }); }); });

import { test } from '@playwright/test' test.beforeEach(async ({ page }) => { await page.goto('https://ray.run/login') await page.fill('#username', 'admin') await page.fill('#password', 'password123') await page.click('#login-button') expect(await page.url()).toContain('/dashboard') }) test('should display user profile', async ({ page }) => { await page.click('#profile-button') expect(await page.textContent('body')).toContain('Admin User') }) // Other tests...
