Typeracer-Project
This program utilizes the Selenium library to automate the playing of the online game Typeracer at https://play.typeracer.com/. Running the program will open the Google Chrome browser in the current environment and start a new session as a guest for Typeracer. Note that the default setting opens an incognito window and plays Typeracer as a guest.
Additional Notes
The project utilizes both Xpath and CSS selectors to identify and interact with the web elements through Selenium's API. Note that the program is set to open the Google Chrome browser in incognito mode; this is to make sure that default Google Chrome browser settings do not interfere with the typeracer session, this can be changed through setting the Given that there is a variable to adjust how fast the type speed should be, if the typespeed causes words per minute (WPM) to exceed 100 WPM the program will also handle the image to text recognition challenge as well. Note that the program assumes ad-blocker is not installed in the user's web browser. If ad-blocker is installed then this could potentially interfere with the closing of pop-ups during the execution of the challenge method.
