AutoCoconut, a workflow recording tool for Linux
AutoCoconut is a tool that enables tracking mouse and keyboard events to make a workflow report with screenshot illustrations. Such workflow report can be helpful when creating bug reports, tutorials, or test cases for GUI testing frameworks, such as OpenQA and others.
AutoCoconut works on X11 sessions only. The current version is not Wayland ready.
Development
Currently, the development has reached Phase 4.
Which means that the script is able:
- record various events, mouse buttons and actions (click, double click, drag, vertical scroll), keyboard events (press and release)
- identify various types of keys (modifiers, special keys, character keys, etc.)
- find pre-defined patterns in single events and interpret them
- take screenshots to illustrate the workflow (or create needles for OpenQA)
- produce various output - raw file, json file, or a workflow description in adoc and html.
- it has a GUI version which brings more functionality, such as edit, delete, or create events for the recorded workflow
- is packaged on PyPi for easy installation.
