Does anybody know of a good tool that allows me to autofill a large and complex form with test data? I'd be able to run through it once and have all of the fields saved. The form goes across multiple pages, so it has to support that. Bonus if the tool supports multiple sets of test data.

@polotek I’m not sure if this is overkill but I’ve used Playwright for this?
-
@22 definitely overkill. I'm thinking of a browser extension.
-
@polotek Eclipse?

@Archnemysis that’s just a word. Can you provide a link?

@polotek @22 for a form-heavy project I ended up moving to Puppeteer and later Playwright because CI warranted it, but for a while I got a lot of mileage out of a bookmarklet that loaded and ran a hand-rolled JS script which filled out the forms, ended up with a few different bookmarklets for different test data

@alec @22 a lot of people assumed that my use case was repeatable CI. And that led them to suggest puppeteer. I'm talking about a more human-driven workflow. Currently I'm trying out this chrome extension that sort of does what I need.
