keyboard automation testing framework index.
Take full control of your keyboard with this small Python library. Hook global events, register hotkeys, simulate key presses and much more.

Selenium has been widely used in automating web applications as it stands out from other testing tools by providing numerous ways to test those applications. No matter how complex the UI is, Selenium provides multiple options to automate it thereby reducing or completely wiping away the manual effort. When it comes to testing Windows-based applications or any standalone applications, we have different tools like QTP/UFT which perform user actions in the window handles.
Have you ever wondered how frustrating it would be if you had to log in each time you wanted to view your Facebook profile? Or in a multiple-choice question where you’d like to mark many options but can’t? Or do you have to enter your card information each time you make a payment since you can’t save it?
Hey LambdaTesters, September has ended, and it’s time to catch up on all we’ve been up to over the last month.
Sometimes, in our test code, we need to handle actions that apparently could not be done automatically. For example, some mouse actions such as context click, double click, drag and drop, mouse movements, and some special key down and key up actions. These specific actions could be crucial depending on the project context.
Learn to execute automation testing from scratch with LambdaTest Learning Hub. Right from setting up the prerequisites to run your first automation test, to following best practices and diving deeper into advanced test scenarios. LambdaTest Learning Hubs compile a list of step-by-step guides to help you be proficient with different test automation frameworks i.e. Selenium, Cypress, TestNG etc.
You could also refer to video tutorials over LambdaTest YouTube channel to get step by step demonstration from industry experts.

How do I catch a KeyError in Python?
When I run this code:
connection = manager.connect("I2Cx")
The program crashes and reports a KeyError
because "I2Cx"
doesn’t exist (it should be "I2C"
).
But when I do this:
try:
connection = manager.connect("I2Cx")
except Exception as e:
print(e)
It doesn’t print anything for e
. I would like to be able to print the exception that was thrown. If I try the same thing with a divide by zero operation, it is caught and reported properly in both cases. What am I missing here?
If you’re encountering a KeyError with no message, you might want to ensure it actually prints something useful. A simple way to do that is by using repr()
to get a full representation of the exception:
try:
connection = manager.connect("I2Cx")
except Exception as e:
print(repr(e))
This will give you the exception class name along with the actual error message, which is super helpful for debugging.
That’s a good start, but catching exceptions in a more structured way is even better. Instead of a generic except Exception
, handling specific exceptions like KeyError
and IndexError
makes your code more readable and avoids masking unexpected issues:
try:
connection = manager.connect("I2Cx")
except KeyError as e:
print(f'I got a KeyError - reason "{str(e)}"')
except IndexError as e:
print(f'I got an IndexError - reason "{str(e)}"')
This way, you’re explicitly handling different errors separately, which makes debugging easier and keeps your error handling clean.
Right, and if you need to catch all exceptions for logging or cleanup, it’s still a good practice to re-raise unexpected ones. Otherwise, you might accidentally swallow something critical like a KeyboardInterrupt
. Here’s how you can do it properly:
try:
connection = manager.connect("I2Cx")
except KeyError as e:
print(f'I got a KeyError - reason "{str(e)}"')
except Exception as e:
print(f'I got another exception: {repr(e)}. Re-raising it!')
raise
This ensures that while you handle known errors, unexpected ones don’t get silently ignored, which can save you from nasty debugging surprises later on.
