splinter

Splinter is a Python framework that provides a simple and consistent interface for web application automation.

Key features:

Easy to learn: The API is designed to be intuitive and quick to pick up.
Faster to code: Automate browser interactions quickly and reliably without fighting the tool.
Powerful: Designed for real world use cases, it guards against common automation quirks.
Flexible: Access to lower level tools is never hidden. Break out into raw Selenium at any time.
Robust: Support is available for multiple automation drivers (Selenium, Django, Flask, ZopeTestBrowser).

Example

from splinter import Browser


browser = Browser('firefox')
browser.visit('http://google.com')
browser.find_by_name('q').fill('splinter - python acceptance testing for web applications')
browser.find_by_name('btnK').click()

if browser.is_text_present('splinter.readthedocs.io'):
    print("Yes, the official website was found!")
else:
    print("No, it wasn't found... We need to improve our SEO techniques")

browser.quit()
