Automation

Create automated scenarios.

The Automation Chrome extension helps you easily record and automate user interactions on web pages. It enables creation of detailed testing scenarios by capturing your actions step-by-step.

Beyond recording, Automation allows you to refine your scenarios by adding custom actions such as timers, page redirects, and inserting JavaScript code snippets. This flexibility ensures you can create precise, repeatable automated tests tailored to your needs.

Please note, the extension operates within Chrome's sync storage quotas. Automation is provided as-is to empower developers and testers in simplifying web testing workflows.
