00:00Hey, I have a question, you may be having also, that's Tomahawk is easier or Selenium?
00:13We'll compare these two, let's move on it.
00:16Firstly, we'll compare its connection with the browser, that's a definitely affected
00:20or not performance of your workflow in both cases.
00:23If you see your own Tomahawk directly connected with your browser, or if you'll see Selenium,
00:29that's use a web driver, that's decrease the performance of your workflow.
00:34There is another functionality we'll compare of this, that's Atoma has a built-in schedule
00:38feature, you can schedule your task on a specific time or in a specific condition.
00:44But if you'll see, on another hand, in Selenium, you'll need to import external library from
00:50this task.
00:51One another, Regressive doesn't make a difference in former Selenium that are exceptions.
00:56If you'll see, in Selenium, there is a lot of exceptions and mostly that's it, that's
01:00really frustrated.
01:01You'll see a fallback, that's an alternative way of exception, that's a fallback and retry
01:07statement.
01:08If that makes sense, make it easier.
01:10If you'll compare storage or load down your data during your workflow in both cases, in
01:15Selenium and Atoma, that's Atoma is also easier than Selenium, because it has built-in storage
01:22system in Atoma, that's a label with the storage on the left-hand side.
01:26If you'll compare with Selenium, that's you'll need to import external library.
01:31In most of cases, you'll see the error of encoding and so on, there is a lot of error,
01:37but if you'll see in a storage, that's make it easier than Selenium.
01:41In a Selenium, you'll need to import pandas and so on, a library status, that's you'll
01:47need to write a bunch of code, that's a really frustrated thing.
01:51If you know about a selector in automation, that's a really helpful in a browser automation,
01:56but if you'll see in a, there will be no any type of selector, have a selector tool, but
02:00in a, that's in a IDE, which is an extension of browser, in a Selenium, but there is a
02:06no selector tool in a Selenium, in a Python or any other tool, you'll need to customize
02:11your selector, but if you'll see in Atoma, you have a selector tool, you can make a selector
02:16and then use it in your workflow, that's really make a sense to use it and easier to
02:22use it.
02:23If you'll see a syntax or a expression of writing a code in a both cases, you'll compare
02:27that a Atoma is easier than a Selenium because a, you'll need to write a bunch of code in
02:33a Selenium, but if you'll switch in Atoma, you'll see that you'll need to just a, drag
02:37and drop, drag and drop and connect a flow, that's make it easier.
02:41I hope you understand which is easier.
02:43As you know, these are alternative of each other, but in a browser automation task, that's
02:48Atoma is really easier than a Selenium.
