page_actions_attacher v1.12.4
: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
