Course Overview

Website automation is a way to automate common web actions like filling out forms, clicking on buttons, downloading files, and exchanging data with software. While the internet makes doing business faster and easier in countless ways, these actions can be time-consuming and prone to errors. Python and supporting libraries provide tools to automate such tasks using web scraping and browser automation, saving time and reducing potential errors. With the skills you gain in this course, you will be able to use software tools to pull information from websites, automate mouse and keyboard operations, and implement Python threading and scheduling.
