Automation - Update Naukri Profile Using Selenium

Recently one of my friend came to me with a problem. He is looking out for new job but he feels quite boring to update  his profile on daily basis. As some people says updating profile in the morning gives you more calls as it keeps the newly updated profile on top (Although i don’t know whether naukri works this way or not 😀 ). As i was more interested to solve his problem. 

After listening his problem i came to solution that instead of updating it manually lets make this job automatic. And it is quite interesting how we can automate our daily boring task with automation.

Another day i came with the solution . And the solution was to make it automatic using selenium (Those who are not aware about selenium do check this link)

In short, Selenium is a Testing automation Framework. And it is for automating web applications for testing purposes, but is certainly not limited to just that.

Boring web-based administration tasks can (and should) also be automated as well.

Then i started figuring out how i can automate the task. Before this i haven’t worked on selenium. But i found it quite easy to learn selenium and using python. I wrote a script to automate this task. And took me 3 hours write this code (which includes learning selenium + writing code)  

from selenium import webdriverfrom selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keysyear = 2014driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path="/Users/vaibhavsharma/Documents/selenium/chromedriver")#driver = webdriver.Chrome("chromedriver")driver.get("https://www.naukri.com/nlogin/login")driver.implicitly_wait(60)emailElement = driver.find_element_by_id("usernameField")emailElement.clear()emailElement.send_keys("Your email Address")passElement = driver.find_element_by_id("passwordField")passElement.clear()passElement.send_keys("Your password")passElement.send_keys(Keys.RETURN)username = driver.find_element_by_class_name("user-name")username.click()resumeHeadlineSpans = driver.find_element_by_class_name("resumeHeadline").find_elements_by_tag_name("span")for span in resumeHeadlineSpans:    if span.text == "Edit":        span.click()        break# Here updating Naukri Profile Resume Headline.headline = """Extensive 5.6 years of Mobile app development .I have worked on android , iOS , xamarin forms, titanium appcelerator . I am also open to work on new technologies. Also have experience with server side technologies and frameworks."""resumeHeadlineTextArea = driver.find_element_by_class_name("resumeHeadlineTxt")resumeHeadlineTextArea.clear()resumeHeadlineTextArea.send_keys(headline)btnList = driver.find_elements_by_tag_name("button")for item in btnList:    if item.text == "SAVE":        item.click()        breakdriver.__exit__()

To run this script ,i have created a cronjob/Scheduler which executes this script in the morning at specified time.

So this how i solved the problem of my friend . Now i am also using the same script to update my profile as well.  🙂

With the selenium there are lots of boring stuffs which you can automate.

OpenCV - Image Filters

Hello Guys, In this tutorial, I will discuss the color map in OpenCV. Color Map is used to show different color temperatures. And this can also be used to generate some cool image filters.  OpenCV comes with thirteen built-in color maps. So in this tutorial, I will show you how to use color maps.  Let’s get started List of Color Maps COLORMAP_AUTUMN COLORMAP_BONE COLORMAP_JET COLORMAP_WINTER COLORMAP_RAINBOW COLORMAP_OCEAN COLORMAP_SUMMER COLORMAP_SPRING COLORMAP_COOL COLORMAP_HSV COLORMAP_PINK COLORMAP_HOT COLORMAP_PARULA To apply color map first we need to convert an image to grayscale. So I will use  img = cv.imread("nature.jpg",cv.IMREAD_GRAYSCALE) If you are not aware of this function then please check my previous tutorial  http://techievaibhav.in/2019/01/10/reading-an-image-using-opencv/ To apply color maps, OpenCV comes with a function called applyColorMap() . This function takes two parameters. Gray Scale image Color Map Autumn Bone Cool Hot HSV Jet Ocean Parula Pink ...
