There has been the (Apple provided) safaridriver for a couple of years. It speaks WebDriver W3C and can be used to interact with a Safari instance.


Curious how they frame testing on real devices: “Real devices on demand: spin up iOS simulators and Android emulators”. So those are not real/physical devices?

Physical devices for AI agents is something we at TestingBot do provide: https://testingbot.com/support/ai/mcp


Same name as the test automation framework https://nightwatchjs.org/


damn i think i need to rename it to owl gang or something similar


Looks good, excited to try this together with the CDP feature. If it works well we can add it to our (TestingBot) integration/documentation.


Hey! Sure happy to create a shared integration with TestinBot - shoot me an email so we can discuss andrea@notte.cc :)


We created this as a free tool a while back on TestingBot: https://testingbot.com/free-online-tools/critical-css-genera....

It uses a remote browser to start a Puppeteer session and runs JavaScript code to extract the critical CSS needed for above-the-fold content. We chose Puppeteer because it’s fast to instrument the browser and works well even on JavaScript-heavy sites.


I will test it out, didn't find it!


You can't use AppleID or iCloud because Apple's virtualization.framework does not support this (yet) https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/707459

If you run macOS without the virtualization.framework, which is only possible on non-ARM mac's, then it will work.


We use it at https://testingbot.com to provide a realtime video stream of remote desktops and mobile device screens. Mostly with Pion (Go)


I’m working on a project that provides remote browsers, running on VMs/containers, capable of running Playwright tests (and Puppeteer scripts): https://headlesstesting.com/

We’ve seen a consistent growth of interest in people wanting to use Playwright for browser automation (and testing).


For testing purposes, you can achieve similar results with Selenium IDE. You can export tests and upload these to (our website) https://testingbot.com - supports screenshots and scheduled runs.


Would using gstreamer instead of ffmpeg offer better or worse performance? (Less CPU usage on the sender side?) If anyone has experience with this setup, I’d love to know.
