Just had a practical idea. I have to download all my business bills to send them to the tax office every month. Quite annoying as I have to collect them from different emails and websites. That would be something worth some automation script, though honestly I think that in the end (due to changing environments) this probably will cost me more time than it will save. I might do it anyway though! :D I also spend like 2000 hours on an app to save me some time on time tracking every day, which doing manually would have approximately just cost me 312 hours in the same time so far. So you could say I have some experience in over the top automation.
That seems quite relatable, and something I wish I could fix as well. I came across Selenium IDE, which seems to be a way to record UI interactions like the ones you mention. Does that sound helpful to you?
Thanks. I worked with Selenium many years before and back then it was not much fun, but I might give it another go. I also found this one: imacros.net/
