httptoolkit/browser-launcher
Detect the browser versions available on your system, and launch them in an isolated profile for automation & testing purposes.
This tool helps quality assurance engineers and automated testing specialists launch various web browsers on their system with specific configurations. It takes your local browser installations and a target URL as input, then opens the specified browser in an isolated profile, often for automated testing or web scraping. This is ideal for those who need to programmatically control browser behavior for consistency and debugging.
Available on npm.
Use this if you need to reliably open different browser versions in isolated environments, configure proxies, or pass custom command-line arguments for web automation and testing.
Not ideal if you just need to manually open a browser or if your testing only involves a single browser in its default configuration.
