@mathaeus.peter.sander, although I am the current active maintainer of Etaoin, you are thanking @igrishaev!

i thank everyone involved cause its really really cool i was thinking about something like that lately 😄 and guess whats its there all the time. so please keep that thing running its such a pleasure to use and not only an alternative to puppeteer and stuff its by far cooler.

Thank you for you kind words! I haven't used etaoin for several years or something because, unfortunately, although my clients use clojure, their UI tests are written in Javascript or Java. I really miss writing UI tests in Clojure.

@mathaeus.peter.sander yes! 💯 My very first professional Clojure code was contributing a DSL to our internal web UI testing framework (it was almost a full rewrite of the framework, TBH). At that time, about 10 years ago, the go-to was Clojure + clj-webdriver by @semperos gratitude Sometime later, I got a chance to speak about that work at IN/Clojure 2016. My bet is a lot of the design approach is still relevant, and useful.

I've never used etaoin, but feel free to ping me about Clojure-driven web testing stuff. There is a lot that I couldn't talk about in the presentation. Most of the devil is in the details!

Agree. Big thanks to @igrishaev. This library is a great example of how a good DSL should work. There's a youtube video of his hacking on that's worth a watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cLL_5rETLWY

A borked computer. 😃
