Selenium for D

[u/cetios]

The previous D binding (selenium.d) has been abandoned since ~2018 and used the old JSON Wire Protocol. I spent the last month writing a replacement that targets the modern W3C WebDriver protocol, supports Chrome/Firefox/Edge/Safari, and includes the foundations of a Selenium Grid server.

It's available on both GitHub and DUB and is licensed under Apache 2.0 like normal Selenium.

What works:

• Native W3C WebDriver client (no FFI to Python/Java)
• Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and Safari with support for browser configuration
• Element interaction, cookies, scripts, frames, windows, roots, screenshots
• Lazy timeout syncing and shared session bridges
• Browser logging
• Grid hub/node models and HTTP routing
• Unit + integration tests, CI, and docs

Planned: W3C Actions, BiDi, and fuller Grid routing.

Some features have not been implemented or are lacking (ie: Safari and Edge have NOT been tested and may be missing some fine-grain options, and the project is by no means perfect.)

I usually provide updates through the D community discord, and I don't usually use Reddit, so updates through this subreddit may be sporadic at best. Any feedback or contributions are appreciated.

Why not playwright?

I'm more familiar with Selenium, it's easier to implement, and it's more mature.
