form_filler_assistant v1.12.0

:trumpet: Overview

This package is a tampermonkey helper that enables easy addition of custom actions to specific pages, making it particularly valuable for simplifying form-filling tasks.

Instead of manually filling out a four-step website form to view your current working page, why not simplify the process by clicking a button that completes it for you? 🤖

:question: Motivation

My main motivation for building this tool was to save time when filling out forms in my React applications during the development phase.

• It's important to note that this tool does not aim (or would be able) to replace end-to-end testing tools. Instead, it serves as a more efficient and faster option specifically for development phase.
• I have explored other solutions such as Cypress and Selenium, but they didn't meet my needs for:
  • Keyboard shortcuts;
  • Synchronization between multiple developers;
  • Randomly generated data, particularly unique Brazilian person and company numbers;
  • Allow me to fill the form while inside my vscode debugger chrome instance.

:dart: Features

   ✔️ atach a floating buttom with custom actions (ctrl+space to toogle it);    ✔️ out of the box browser methods to fill website forms (type, click, etc);    ✔️ dynamic keybinding to all available options (1-9) when the options container is displayed;    ✔️ allow custom configs (color scheme, debug_mode, custom shortcuts, etc);    ✔️ ready to use examples provided on ./examples, including one that has auto-updatable feature.
