tor-browser-selenium
A Python library for automating Tor Browser with Selenium WebDriver for privacy-focused web scraping and testing.
What is tor-browser-selenium?
tor-browser-selenium is a Python library that provides Selenium WebDriver bindings for automating the Tor Browser. It enables developers to programmatically control Tor Browser for tasks like web scraping, automated testing, and accessing onion services while leveraging Tor's privacy features. The library handles the integration with Tor Browser's unique configuration and supports both system Tor and programmatically managed Tor processes via Stem.
Developers and researchers who need to automate web interactions through the Tor network for privacy-focused scraping, testing onion services, or conducting anonymity-related experiments.
It offers a specialized, privacy-preserving automation solution by directly integrating with Tor Browser, unlike generic Selenium setups. Its support for headless operation, parallel execution, and programmatic Tor control via Stem provides flexibility for scalable and server-side automation tasks.
