• The goal of web pilot is to reduce the code complexities for developing a testing script that should test if your web applications is working fine.
• When ever a developer or designer make a changes to your web application. Testing needs to be performed for all the elements of your web.
• After every change you may need to add or modify a lengthy selenium code.

Installation

python setup.py install

Drivers

For headless mode which can be used for automate the testing I prefer using headless_ie_selenium driver.

This is for windows only.

Example

# Example for IE
from web_pilot.browser import Browser

driver_location = "/path/to/IEdriver.exe" #or "/path/to/selenium_headless_ie.exe"

browser = Browser(driver_location,"IE")

browser.open_url('https://selenium-python.readthedocs.io/')
action = browser.click_element('//*[@id="selenium-with-python"]/div[2]/ul/li[1]/a',"Unable to click on element")
if action == "ActionPerformed":
    print ("Opened Docs for python selenium")

# browser.psuedo_browser.quit()
