AI-powered browser automation to test script converter

Browse-to-Test

Transform browser automation data into production-ready test scripts with AI

🚀 Simple async API | 🤖 AI-powered | 🔌 Multi-framework | ⚡ Parallel processing

Why Browse-to-Test?

Convert your browser automation recordings into clean, maintainable test scripts in seconds:

import browse_to_test as btt

# One line to generate comprehensive test scripts
script = await btt.convert_async(
    automation_data=your_recording_data,
    framework="playwright", 
    language="python"
)

Results in production-ready code:

import pytest
from playwright.async_api import async_playwright

async def test_user_workflow():
    async with async_playwright() as p:
        browser = await p.chromium.launch()
        page = await browser.new_page()
        
        # Navigate to application
        await page.goto("https://app.example.com")
        
        # Create user flow with assertions
        await page.click(".create-user-btn")
        await page.fill("input[name='fullName']", "John Doe")
        await page.fill("input[name='email']", "[e-mail]")
        await page.click("button[type='submit']")
        
        # Verify success
        await expect(page.locator(".success-message")).to_be_visible()
        
        await browser.close()

⚡ Quick Start

1. Install

pip install browse-to-test[all]

2. Set your AI key

export OPENAI_API_KEY="your_key_here"

3. Run the async example

# Try the comprehensive async example
python examples/async_usage.py

Or convert automation data directly:

import asyncio
import browse_to_test as btt

async def main():
    # Your browser automation data
    automation_data = [
        {
            "model_output": {"action": [{"go_to_url": {"url": "https://app.example.com"}}]},
            "state": {"url": "https://app.example.com", "interacted_element": []}
        },
        {
            "model_output": {"action": [{"click_element": {"index": 0}}]},
            "state": {
                "interacted_element": [{
                    "css_selector": ".create-user-btn",
                    "text_content": "Create New User"
                }]
            }
        }
    ]

    # Generate test script asynchronously
    script = await btt.convert_async(
        automation_data=automation_data,
        framework="playwright",
        language="python"
    )
    print(script)

asyncio.run(main())

🌟 Key Features

⚡ Async-First Design

• Non-blocking operations for better performance
• Parallel processing of multiple test conversions
• Timeout and retry capabilities built-in
• Queue management for efficient AI API usage

🤖 AI-Powered Intelligence

• Converts raw browser data into clean, readable test code
• Context-aware generation with quality analysis
• Smart selector optimization and assertion generation

🔌 Multi-Framework Support

# Async API works with all frameworks
await btt.convert_async(data, framework="playwright", language="python")
await btt.convert_async(data, framework="playwright", language="typescript") 
await btt.convert_async(data, framework="selenium", language="python")

# Parallel processing for multiple frameworks
scripts = await asyncio.gather(
    btt.convert_async(data, framework="playwright"),
    btt.convert_async(data, framework="selenium")
)

🧠 Context-Aware Generation

Analyzes your existing codebase to generate tests that:

• Follow your naming conventions
• Use your preferred selectors (data-testid, CSS classes, etc.)
• Match your existing test patterns
• Avoid duplicating existing coverage

🔒 Production Ready

• Sensitive data protection (passwords, API keys automatically masked)
• Error handling and retry logic built-in
• Comprehensive assertions verify expected outcomes
• Performance optimized selectors

🚀 Async Examples from examples/async_usage.py

Simple Async Conversion

async def generate_test():
    script = await btt.convert_async(
        automation_data=your_recording,
        framework="playwright",
        ai_provider="openai", 
        language="python"
    )
    return script

Parallel Multi-Framework Generation

async def generate_all_frameworks():
    tasks = [
        btt.convert_async(data, framework="playwright", language="python"),
        btt.convert_async(data, framework="playwright", language="typescript"), 
        btt.convert_async(data, framework="selenium", language="python")
    ]
    
    # Generate all tests in parallel
    results = await asyncio.gather(*tasks, return_exceptions=True)
    return results

Quality Analysis with Async

async def generate_with_qa():
    # Generate script
    script = await btt.convert_async(automation_data, framework="playwright")
    
    # Analyze and optimize quality
    qa_result = await btt.perform_script_qa_async(
        script=script,
        automation_data=automation_data,
        framework="playwright"

🛠️ Advanced Async Features

Robust Error Handling with Retries

async def robust_convert(automation_data):
    """Convert with timeout and retry logic from examples/async_usage.py"""
    max_retries = 2
    timeout_seconds = 30
    
    for attempt in range(max_retries + 1):
        try:
            script = await asyncio.wait_for(
                btt.convert_async(
                    automation_data=automation_data,
                    framework="playwright",
                    include_assertions=True,
                    include_error_handling=True
                ),
                timeout=timeout_seconds
            )
            return script
        except asyncio.TimeoutError:
            if attempt == max_retries:
                raise
            await asyncio.sleep(1)  # Brief delay before retry

Performance Comparison

async def compare_sync_vs_async(automation_data):
    """Performance analysis from examples/async_usage.py"""
    
    # Sync version
    sync_start = time.time()
    sync_script = btt.convert(automation_data, framework="playwright")
    sync_time = time.time() - sync_start
    
    # Async version
    async_start = time.time()  
    async_script = await btt.convert_async(automation_data, framework="playwright")
    async_time = time.time() - async_start
    
    return {
        "sync_time": sync_time,
        "async_time": async_time,
        "improvement": ((sync_time - async_time) / sync_time) * 100
    }

Custom Configuration with Async

# Fine-tune generation for your specific needs
config = btt.ConfigBuilder() \
    .framework("playwright") \
    .language("typescript") \
    .include_assertions(True) \
    .include_error_handling(True) \
    .include_logging(True) \
    .build()

script = await btt.convert_async(automation_data, config=config)
