Wow so nice to have a practical tutorial of something that I am still finding confusing 😅😅😅

I’ll be sure to try it out. Thanks Victoria! I’m looking forward to the next installment.

Hi Jorge! Thanks for reading! Glad u find it helpful~ Yes, Selenium can help with web scraping! Maybe I can write about it in future articles of this series 😊😊 Thanks!

I found this nice article that compares cypress and selenium: browserstack.com/guide/cypress-vs-selenium

Hope that helps!

Also, I would very much like to have a web scraping tutorial!
