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.

If you have any questions regarding this article. Then please do let me know. I would be happy to help.

Choosing the Best Motherboard

We will look at the various factors you should take into account when choosing your gaming motherboard, to ensure that you choose the best motherboard for your needs.If you think of the processor as the brain of a computer, then the motherboard could be described as the central nervous system, responsible for relaying information between all the internal components. In other words, it’s the hub of the computer, where all other components connect to. Since the motherboard is so crucial to your system, buying the best motherboard you can afford is a good investment. Select Your CPU First Before choosing your motherboard, you should have already chosen your CPU. If you haven’t already doneA motherboard will generally only support one type of processor, such as a Pentium 4 or Athlon 64. Different CPUs have connectors that vary physically from one another. So you can’t accidentally plug in the wrong processor into the wrong motherboard. Also, take note that many motherboards

Choosing the Best CPU for Your Gaming Computer

Picking the latest, fastest or most expensive processor on the market won’t always result in the right CPU for your particular system. Some processors are designed to work with certain motherboards, so the CPU you choose will limit the type of motherboard you can get. The CPU (Central Processing Unit) is one of the most important components in any computer system. The CPU could be described as the brains of a computer. It contains the logic circuitry that performs the instructions of the software you run. The performance of your games and other applications will be directly related to this tiny little microprocessor. The Major Players: Intel and AMD Two companies dominate the CPU market, Intel and AMD (Advanced Micro Devices). Both companies make a range of different processor models.  For example, Intel have the Core i7 and Core i5 processor models, while AMD have the Athlon and Phenom series.  The Best CPU for Gaming If you’re a basic computer user and you don’t
