title: "Bumblebee: turn browser sessions to code"

Bumblebee is a web browser that turns browser sessions into C# scripts. Its
objective is to eliminate the need for authoring scripts for testing, web
scraping, and other browser automation tasks.

Bumblebee is a Windows Forms application written in C#. The rendering of web
content is handled by the embedded Microsoft Edge browser (via WebView). The
text editor on the right is {{< link
src="https://github.com/desjarlais/Scintilla.NET" class="external"
target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">}}Scintilla.NET{{< /link >}}. It
enables users to override the script at any point during the session. There are
application settings that let users debounce events, ignore hidden elements
and scripts, and more.
Unfortunately, I can't share the source code for Bumblebee. I developed it for
an employer. Hence, the software is proprietary.
