A pure Clojure implementation of the Webdriver protocol named after Etaoin Shrdlu — a typing machine that came to life after a mysterious note was produced on it.
Use the Etaoin library to automate a browser, test your frontend behaviour, simulate human actions or whatever you want.
-
Selenium-free: no long dependencies, no tons of downloaded jars, etc.
-
Lightweight, fast. Simple, easy to understand.
-
Compact: just one main module with a couple of helpers.
-
Declarative: the code is just a list of actions.
-
Currently supports Chrome, Firefox, Safari and Edge.
-
May either connect to a remote driver or run it on your local machine.
-
Run your unit tests directly from Emacs pressing
C-t tas usual. -
Can imitate human-like behaviour (delays, typos, etc).
