SeleniumBase is a comprehensive Python framework built on top of Selenium/WebDriver APIs designed to streamline browser automation for tasks such as web testing, scraping, and workflow automation. It distinguishes itself from vanilla Selenium by integrating advanced features like CAPTCHA bypassing, bot-detection avoidance, and enhanced productivity tools. SeleniumBase simplifies automation with built-in test runners, automatic driver management, and multi-action methods that reduce code complexity. It provides user-friendly error outputs and includes dashboards, reports, and failure screenshots for better debugging. Additionally, SeleniumBase supports complex use cases with features like UC Mode and CDP Mode for bypassing advanced anti-bot technologies, making it a versatile choice for web automation that extends beyond standard test automation into data app creation and test case management.
