Selenium Wire VS Selenium WebDriver

Maybe the next step is combining selenium with network capture ability like in selenium-wire: https://github.com/wkeeling/selenium-wire ?

Perhaps https://github.com/wkeeling/selenium-wire helps.

Ugh, tough one. In that case, there's a module called seleniumwire(exclusive to Python), it might be able to help you out with what you need; check it out.

Firstly, you’ll need to install Selenium Wire to extend Selenium’s Python bindings because using the default Selenium module for implementing proxies that require authentication makes the whole process complicated. You can do it using the pip command:

Before I was using selenium-wire which has a very easy way to get this information:

The problem is Selenium does not support adding headers. A third-party solution like Selenium Wire might solve it. Install it with pip install selenium-wire.

You can do that with selenium-wire: https://github.com/wkeeling/selenium-wire

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.
