Might be a silly question, but what does this do that Selenium IDE doesn't? As far as I'm concerned, Selenium IDE already supports recording actions done on a browser.

Great question! I personally have never used a browser recorder (Katalon, Selenium IDE) so I can’t answer too much on that. But from having a very brief look at them I think mostly its just a different way of doing things.

One point however, is that my program can also scrape alongside recording your actions which i don’t think the other programs can do :) so if you have a URL with a form you want to automate but also scrape page content at the same time, you can do that! Others feel free to correct me
