How it composes

From intent
to working system.

Launch

A driver starts or attaches to the application under test.

Discover

The CDP target describes available sessions and UI state.

Drive

Selectors, input, evaluation, and waits express test intent.

Assert

Snapshots, properties, screenshots, and events provide evidence.

Quick start

Adopt this
capability.

Start with the primary module, then add the related packages only when the application needs those layers. Replace VERSION with the current NuGet version.

dotnet add package Chrome.DevTools.Automation.Headless --prerelease

<PackageReference Include="Chrome.DevTools.Automation.Headless" Version="VERSION" />

<PackageVersion Include="Chrome.DevTools.Automation.Headless" Version="VERSION" />

await using var app = await CdpHeadlessApp.StartAsync<App>();
var page = await app.ConnectAsync();

await page.ClickAsync("button[name=Save]");
await page.ScreenshotAsync("saved.png");
