Tools that will make writing tests, bots and scrapers using Selenium much easier

• Free software: MIT license
• Documentation: https://selenium-extensions.readthedocs.io.

Installation

.. code-block:: console

$ pip install selenium_extensions

Example

Creating a headless Selenium bot and filling in a form is as easy as

.. code-block:: python

from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium_extensions.core import SeleniumDriver


class MyBot(SeleniumDriver):

    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        super().__init__(*args, **kwargs)

    def goto_google(self):
        self.driver.get('https://google.com')
        searchbox_locator = (By.ID, 'lst-ib')
        self.wait_for_element_to_be_present(searchbox_locator)
        self.populate_text_field(searchbox_locator, 'query')


bot = MyBot(browser='chrome', executable_path='/usr/bin/chromedriver', run_headless=True)
bot.goto_google()
bot.shut_down()

Or do you want to wait until you will be redirected from login page? selenium_extensions makes it easy

.. code-block:: python

from selenium_extensions.helpers import wait_for_function_truth
from selenium_extensions.helpers import element_has_gone_stale


...
login_btn = self.driver.find_element_by_css_selector(
    "button.submit.EdgeButton.EdgeButton--primary")
login_btn.click()

# Wait to be redirected
wait_for_function_truth(element_has_gone_stale, login_btn)
