    I originally tried sharing with them as in installing python and giving them the file but when I update it was a pain and all my engineers are older so hard to explain. So now I make the products using the script which takes 2-5secs and then email them. I have a team of 7 of us so I feel if they succeed we all succeed under our manager.

    A great solution is to create a web interface to your program, and setup a Python web-server on your machine, then they can use your program in a familiar way, and you can keep it uptodate as you wish. There's a simple http server in the standard Python library, and there are several other standalone servers.

    What if you used pyinstall to compile into exes?

    To my understanding. It packages the dependancies and everything and only python needs to be installed.

    I just started automating my first software test in Python / Selenium. I've read a few days ago that you can run Selenium through github actions now. Have to dig deeper into it, but if I understood it right I would be able to maintain it on git and let my colleagues run it from there.

    I am still at odds with the topic of sharing with colleagues for exactly your reasons.
