Playwright for Python
Python version of the Playwright testing and automation library
Playwright enables reliable end-to-end testing for modern web apps. Single API to automate Chromium, Firefox and WebKit. Capable automation for single page apps that rely on the modern web platform. Use the Playwright API in JavaScript & TypeScript, Python, .NET and, Java. With Playwright, test how your app behaves in Apple Safari with WebKit builds for Windows, Linux and macOS. Test locally and on CI. Use device emulation to test your responsive web apps in mobile web browsers. Playwright supports headless (without browser UI) and headed (with browser UI) modes for all browsers and all platforms. Headed is great for debugging, and headless is faster and suited for CI/cloud executions. Playwright interactions auto-wait for elements to be ready. This improves reliability and simplifies test authoring. Playwright receives browser signals, like network requests, page navigations and page load events to eliminate the need for sleep timeouts that cause flakiness. -

CEF Python
Python bindings for the Chromium Embedded Framework (CEF)
Python bindings for the Chromium Embedded Framework (CEF). CEF Python is an open source project founded by Czarek Tomczak in 2012 to provide Python bindings for the Chromium Embedded Framework (CEF).

Lots of applications use CEF control, there are more than 100 million CEF instances installed around the world. There are numerous use cases for CEF. Use it as a modern HTML5 based rendering engine that can act as a replacement for classic desktop GUI frameworks. Think of it as Electron for Python. Embed a web browser widget in a classic Qt / GTK / wxPython desktop application. Use it for automated testing of web applications with more advanced capabilities than Selenium web browser automation due to CEF low level programming APIs. -

Wallaby
Concurrent browser tests for your Elixir web apps
Wallaby helps you test your web applications by simulating realistic user interactions. By default, it runs each test case concurrently and manages browsers for you. Here's an example test for a simple Todo application. Because Wallaby manages multiple browsers for you, it's possible to test several users interacting with a page simultaneously. Read on to see what else Wallaby can do or check out the Official Documentation. Wallaby also requires bash to be installed. Generally, bash is widely available, but it does not come pre-installed on Alpine Linux. If you're testing a Phoenix application with Ecto and a database that supports sandbox mode, you can enable concurrent testing by adding the Phoenix.Ecto.SQL.Sandbox plug to your Endpoint. It's important that this is at the top of endpoint.ex before any other plugs. -

Wraith
A responsive screenshot comparison tool
Wraith is a screenshot comparison tool, created by developers at BBC News. Wraith uses a headless browser to create screenshots of webpages on different environments (or at different moments in time) and then creates a diff of the two images; the affected areas are highlighted in blue. There are two main modes for using Wraith, 'capture' mode and 'history' mode. Wraith has some built-in JavaScript and configuration file templates for you to get started with right away. If you wish to take screenshots of a component rather than the entire page, use casperjs and pass a selector along with your paths. In the 'component' example config, you can see how we specify a component name, domain path and selector we want to capture. All config options will be placed in a YAML config file. You set the headless browser, diff mode, threshold, fuzz amount and screen widths. -

PyNuker
A stress testing tool written in python.
PyNuker is a network stress testing tool written in python. Because it is written in python it should run equally well on any system that has Python version 3.x installed. It infinitely(until stopped) sends a string of text via a UDP packet to a target computer or network device in an effort to flood the target with so much useless traffic that it stops responding to valid requests. I digitally sign some files in my releases. If you'd like to verify those signatures, you can find my PGP/GPG keys at: https://marcusadams.me/keys.html If you'd like to donate there's several ways to do so: PayPal: https://paypal.me/gerowen Bitcoin (BTC): bc1q86c5j7wvf6cw78tf8x3szxy5gnxg4gj8mw4sy2 Monero (XMR): 42ho3m9tJsobZwQDsFTk92ENdWAYk2zL8Qp42m7pKmfWE7jzei7Fwrs87MMXUTCVifjZZiStt3E7c5tmYa9qNxAf3MbY7rD LiberaPay: https://liberapay.com/gerowen -

minimock
minimock a tiny http server that always return the same response
When developing SOA, there is a time when you feel the need to be able to mock a webservice. That's what minimock's used for. running minimock as such minimock 8080 d:/response.xml will start a server listening on port 8080 that will always return the content of the file d:/response. The main advantages of minimock over other similar tools are its ease of use and its the low footprint : * executable is 20k large. (but on win$ it depends on cygwin1.dll that is 2Mb large) * avg memory use is 3/4Mb. -
