Alternative to Selenium?

[gareth305]

I was wondering if alternatives to Selenium have been considered—particularly options that are simpler to configure and capable of running under HASSIO.

For example, the Browserless Chrome add-on seems to be a great alternative. It offers similar functionality to Selenium and can be conveniently installed directly from within the HASS web interface.

Pretty sure Browserless Chrome supports Selenium (at least the docker that that addon is based on does), though I don't use HA so YMMV.

I think Selenium was picked because of its popularity and support for multiple platforms. We considered some other options, but Selenium seemed to work well for most people.
