Is there a way to handle dynamically loaded selectors with clicks on pages in scrapy-playwright?

Is there a way to return response body in Playwright?

The solution is here in the github issue [INSTALLATION/BUG] - Selenium and Google Colab #548:

I am closing this issue with the @mathigatti solution

!pip install TikTokApi
!python -m pip install playwright
!apt install libgstreamer1.0-0 libwoff1 libgstreamer1.0-0 libgstreamer1.0-dev libgstreamer-plugins-good1.0-0 libgstreamer-gl1.0-0 libgstreamer-plugins-bad1.0-0
%%writefile test.py
from TikTokApi import TikTokApi 
#your code

Then

!python test.py

For Typescript/Javascript there is playwright-dompath which you can install with:

npm install playwright-dompath

Basically you just call the xPath function with the element you selected, and you get back the full xPath. Under the hood, it uses the same functions from Chrome DevTools.

I found out that the problem was i was trying to close the context before closing the page first, and that was the thing which raises unhandleable exceptions. The solution is replacing the close_playwright() function with this:

def close_playwright():

    page.close()
    context.close()
    browser.close()
    playwright.dispose()

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/75023397/how-to-make-playwright-not-to-raise-exceptions-when-the-browser-is-closed

page.goto returns the Response of the page where its navigating to. So you can do something like that:

from playwright.sync_api import sync_playwright

with sync_playwright() as p:
    browser = p.chromium.launch()
    page = browser.new_page()

    response = page.goto("http://whatsmyuseragent.org/")
    assert response.ok

    browser.close()

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/69596102/how-to-check-response-in-playwright

You can use one of those options :

const element = await page.$$("text='element'");
if (element) {
    // ...
}

const element = await page.$$("text='element'");
if (element.length) {
    // ...
}

await expect(page.locator(".MyClass")).toHaveCount(0)

How about checking if the element is clickable: https://playwright.dev/docs/api/class-locator#locator-click

use trial option and if it returns true continue execution

  await page.click(First_Row_Download, , {trial:true})

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/73530386/exit-an-async-with-in-python

Maybe you can check the selector is visible and then you can click it?

if PageMethod("isVisible","#selector1"):
    PageMethod("click","#selector1")    
if PageMethod("isVisible","#selector2"):
    PageMethod("click","#selector2")    
if PageMethod("isVisible","#selector3"):
    PageMethod("click","#selector3")

I think you can usue the method isVisible, because scrapy_playwright support the same you have in playwright: https://github.com/scrapy-plugins/scrapy-playwright#supported-methods

And of course, isVisible() is a supported method in playwrgiht: https://playwright.dev/python/docs/api/class-page#page-is-visible

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/74380158/is-there-a-way-to-handle-dynamically-loaded-selectors-with-clicks-on-pages-in-sc

Just use some condition instead of print method, for example you could check if response contains some key in its json:

def run(playwright):
    chromium = playwright.chromium
    browser = chromium.launch()
    page = browser.new_page()
    # Subscribe to "request" and "response" events.
    page.on("request", lambda request: print(">>", request.method, request.url))
    page.on("response", lambda response: print("<<", response.status, response.url))
    page.goto("https://example.com")
    browser.close()

For Example:

page.on("response", lambda response: response if key in response.body())

There should be waitForResponse for python too, and you could use that.

Playwright Tutorial: Getting Started With Playwright Framework

Playwright is a framework that I’ve always heard great things about but never had a chance to pick up until earlier this year. And since then, it’s become one of my favorite test automation frameworks to use when building a new automation project. It’s easy to set up, feature-packed, and one of the fastest, most reliable frameworks I’ve worked with.

Introducing The LambdaTest VS Code Extension

A productive workspace is crucial in crafting code rather than just finding the right IDE. After several generations of IDEs and code editors, Visual Studio Code is considered one of the best web development IDEs used by developers.

Panel Discussion: How to Decide What Automation Technology to Use [Testμ 2022]

To decide what automation technology to use, we brought together Joe Colantonio, Founder of TestGuild, Sneha. V, Director of Quality Engineering, Everfi, and Carlos Kidman, Director of Engineering, Stealth Startup. The panel discussion was hosted by Mudit Singh, Marketing head at LambdaTest. Mudit decided to take a step backwards and let the panel discussion happen.

30 Top Automation Testing Tools In 2022

The sky’s the limit (and even beyond that) when you want to run test automation. Technology has developed so much that you can reduce time and stay more productive than you used to 10 years ago. You needn’t put up with the limitations brought to you by Selenium if that’s your go-to automation testing tool. Instead, you can pick from various test automation frameworks and tools to write effective test cases and run them successfully.

Top Cross Browser Testing Trends [2022]

With the rapid evolution in technology and a massive increase of businesses going online after the Covid-19 outbreak, web applications have become more important for organizations. For any organization to grow, the web application interface must be smooth, user-friendly, and cross browser compatible with various Internet browsers.
