Thanks Ben, it's been a while since we last spoke :) Yeah it's probably ok, I've extended the language parsing engine so that users can write automation scripts in their 21 different native languages. The language definitions

My background is in test automation (on user interfaces). Is it correct to say in ML the concept of test automation is irrelevant? Because during training and predicting the model is already being validated for accuracy and correctness.

Hi bluepnume, if you are ok, can you share how you manage iframes and popups? I'm using DevTools protocol through websocket directly to communicate with Chrome. Have to do a lot of context handling (frames) and using Target.sendMessage

Thanks ghetzel for sharing, nice work! I saw that you've made your own scripting language to make it user-friendly :) Just went through your Friendscript syntax, the amount of work going into defining that language is impressive....

There was still some commits in early July but haven't seen new updates till date. Maintaining a browser project is mammoth task. Even for an established startup such as Segment you see that NightmareJS has lots of issues unreplied for

I didn't follow that development. Can you share why Selenium maintainers chose not to implement headers? Is it that they want to restrict the tool to simulate what a normal user can do with a browser and not hacks such as overriding he

Thanks Jason, enjoyed your thought-provoking post. I'm reminded of Parkinson's law that "work expands so as to fill the time available for its completion". It's as if the software bloats up to fill up the available

I just recently got to know WebPageTest. It even has scripting abilities! I'm just surprised why the project didn't enter into mainstream (in the sense that an average test automation guy like me will know).

(Hi Tim, I use your GitHub corner :) thanks for making it) - There are still some differences between Chromium and Chrome, for example the case of playing back MP4 video due to paid licensing. But Puppeteer being easily configurable to use

Puppeteer automates headless / visible Chrome today. However, the foundational way it does this is through DevTools Protocol. I believe it might be browser agnostic in time to come. There are various (some successful, some failed) adap

Just got to know this, I have not tried it personally. It looks to be addressing a key pain point for test automation - the maintenance of existing test set to stay relevant to changing interfaces / identifiers etc. The part I really h

There's a section in the readme which I'm not sure of - "Running integration Tests for example is much faster." I guess that gains is from the parallel executions. But for the integration testings, there is still work to

This is a really cool project, but looking closer at the API and issues raised it seems that the features are being over-promised. - "Do pretty much everything you've used PhantomJS, NightmareJS or Selenium for before". The m
