short_description: Browser automation drives a web browser programmatically to test, scrape, and interact with websites.
---
Browser automation controls a web browser through code to perform tasks a person would otherwise do by hand: navigating, clicking, filling forms, and reading the resulting pages. It underpins end-to-end testing, web scraping, and agent-driven browsing.

The field spans browser-level protocols such as the Chrome DevTools Protocol and WebDriver, higher-level libraries such as Puppeteer and Playwright, and purpose-built headless engines exposed over HTTP or MCP.
