Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

WebDriver

A lightweight, non-opinionated implementation of the WebDriver specification including mobile commands supported by Appium

There are tons of Selenium and WebDriver binding implementations in the Node.js world. Every one of them have an opinionated API and recommended way to use. This binding is the most non-opinionated you will find as it just represents the WebDriver specification and doesn't come with any extra or higher level abstraction. It is lightweight and comes with support for the WebDriver specification and Appium's Mobile JSONWire Protocol.

The package supports the following protocols:

Commands are added to the clients protocol based on assumptions of provided capabilities. You can find more details about the commands by checking out the @wdio/protocols package. All commands come with TypeScript support.

Install

To install this package from NPM run:

npm i webdriver

Example

The following example demonstrates a simple Google Search scenario:

import WebDriver from 'webdriver';

(async () => {
    const client = await WebDriver.newSession({
        path: '/',
        capabilities: { browserName: 'firefox' }
    })

    await client.navigateTo('https://www.google.com/ncr')

    const searchInput = await client.findElement('css selector', '#lst-ib')
    await client.elementSendKeys(searchInput['element-6066-11e4-a52e-4f735466cecf'], 'WebDriver')

    const searchBtn = await client.findElement('css selector', 'input[value="Google Search"]')
    await client.elementClick(searchBtn['element-6066-11e4-a52e-4f735466cecf'])

    console.log(await client.getTitle()) // outputs "WebDriver - Google Search"

    await client.deleteSession()
})()
