Selenium Support

[SyedAli-eaton]

I recall in the video you said it would be possible to integrate with Selenium. Would this mean to add a selenium_healer.py (similar to browser_healer.py)?

Hi @SyedAli-eaton ,
Yes you're right, I mentioned that Selenium support is on the roadmap and it would mean adding an additional healer module for selenium.

However, as I luckily connected with a community member at RoboCon, we created another healing project from the scratch which supports Browser Library, Selenium Library and Appium Library.

https://github.com/MarketSquare/robotframework-selfhealing-agents

The concept and usage is very similar, you will just need to install the library as described in the repo and import it as shown in the example.
However the reporting of that newer project is way better and it's architecture and tool stack will give us more flexibility for additional self healing scenarios beside locator errors.

I recommend to check out the setup instructions for installation, setup and usage and give it a try.

I'll still try to add selenium support to robotframework-heal as well, but the robotframework-selfhealing-agents will give you the possibility to try out self healing with Selenium right away.

Hey @manykarim ,

That's great! I am glad you were able to connect at the RoboCon. I will take a look at that project (robotframework-selfhealing-agents). From the readme, it looks like the reporting and .robot file editing is very nice.

I think the robotframework-heal is a great project as well, and I am glad you are exploring selenium support.

I will be sure to follow along. This project is amazing. Thank you!
