    When a customer needs a part replaced, they send in shipping data. This data has to be entered into 3-4 different web forms and an email. This allows me to automate it all from a single form that has built in error checking so human mistakes are limited.

    Company could probably automate this all in the backend but they won’t :shrug:

      Using Selenium for this is probably overkill. You might be better off sending direct HTTP requests with your form data. This way you don’t actually have to spin up an entire browser to perform that simple operation for you.

      That said, if it works - it works!
