How is this different from the "Recorder" feature available in Chrome (Dev Tools > Recorder)? It can record a user-journey and print out a puppeteer script.

- jonasnelle 3y agoThe main difference is probably that autotab outputs a Python script, which is easier to integrate with existing Python codebases. Going forward I think the flexibility of Python code & the Python ecosystem will make it easier to build a bunch more things we want to do. For example, a lot of browser-based work is not totally deterministic but rather requires more intelligence during the automation, e.g. summarizing information on a web page or dynamically filling in a text box with the right answer.
- typosaur 3y agoWow! I can totally see that now. Basically you want to build a more intelligent browser-automation tool :)
- Havoc 3y agoWow - did not know about that feature. Thanks for highlighting it!
