# Chromedp

chromedp is a golang package which allows you to automate a Chrome browser with Golang using Puppeteer syntax.

To find out more about this package, please see the [chromedp documentation](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/chromedp/chromedp).

## Installation

Installing chromedp is very easy:

    go get -u github.com/chromedp/chromedp

## Your first Test

To get started, please see this simple example:

    package main
    
    import (
      "context"
      "flag"
      "github.com/chromedp/chromedp"
      "log"
    )
    
    func main() {
      var devToolWsUrl string
      var title string
    
      flag.StringVar(&devToolWsUrl, "devtools-ws-url", "wss://cloud.testingbot.com?key=API_KEY&secret=API_SECRET&browserName=chrome&browserVersion=latest", "DevTools Websocket URL")
      flag.Parse()
    
      actxt, cancelActxt := chromedp.NewRemoteAllocator(context.Background(), devToolWsUrl)
      defer cancelActxt()
    
      ctxt, cancelCtxt := chromedp.NewContext(actxt) // create new tab
      defer cancelCtxt() // close tab afterwards
    
      if err := chromedp.Run(ctxt,
        chromedp.Navigate("https://testingbot.com"),
        chromedp.Title(&title),
      ); err != nil {
        log.Fatalf("Failed getting title of testingbot.com: %v", err)
      }
    
      log.Println("Got title of:", title)
    }

This will connect with a Chrome browser running in the TestingBot cloud, go to the TestingBot homepage and print its title.

## Specifying browser and version

To specify on which browser and version your Chromedp test should run, you can include both a `browserName` and `browserVersion` in the `browserWSEndpoint` URL.
