Cuprite is a Ruby driver for the Capybara testing framework that allows developers to automate browsers using the Chrome DevTools Protocol instead of traditional WebDriver-based tools. It is built on top of the Ferrum library and provides a modern approach to browser automation that removes the need for Selenium or external browser drivers. By communicating directly with Chromium-based browsers through the DevTools protocol, Cuprite enables faster and more reliable browser automation for testing and scraping tasks. The driver integrates seamlessly with Capybara, allowing developers to write feature tests that simulate real user interactions with web applications. Because it uses headless Chrome by default, Cuprite is well suited for automated test environments and continuous integration pipelines. Developers can also run tests with a visible browser window for debugging purposes during development.
