Headless Testing

Headless Testing

Headless testing is when end-to-end tests are performed without loading the browser’s user interface. Since the browser operates as a typical browser would but does not make use of the user interface, it is considered highly suitable for automated testing.

A few example cases where one may use headless browser testing include:

  • Automating HTML event responses, such as form submission, keyboard events, mouse-clicking, etc.
  • Web scraping
  • Generating screenshots of webpages
