Pyppeteer for Chrome Auto Test

Install pyppeteer in Python

• pip install pyppeteer

• pyppeteer-install to download latest Chrome version into ~/.local/share/pyppeteer.

• Put following codes into a script and run it.

import asyncio
from pyppeteer import launch

async def main():
    browser = await launch()
    page = await browser.newPage()
    await page.goto('http://example.com')
    await page.screenshot({'path': 'example.png'})
    await browser.close()

asyncio.get_event_loop().run_until_complete(main())

It will throw missing library error anyway.

• Use ldd ~/.local/share/pyppeteer/.../chrome to check what libs are missing. Install missing libs in system.

• Rerun the script.
