Testing of client&server-side Rust interaction about fantoccini HOT 1 OPEN

Fantoccini interacts with the browser via the webdriver protocol. For Tauri this would mean connecting the chromedriver to the webview via the chrome debugging port (for chrome browsers), and using fantoccini to send commands to chromedriver.

This means you can navigate to various client URLs, inspect the contents of the page, execute javascript, click elements, etc.

If that helps with what you need, then fantoccini can probably help you. However, it currently cannot inspect the network traffic in either direction (i.e. what you see in the Network tab in the browser devtools).

For that, you can use the Chrome Devtools Protocol (CDP), which fantoccini does support but doesn't implement. This does provide access to the network requests etc. See here for more info: https://chromedevtools.github.io/devtools-protocol/
If you need to use CDP, you can take a look at thirtyfour, which I maintain. It's built on top of fantoccini. Support for CDP is very basic but it may be enough to get you started. Start here.

However, if you are trying to interact with the Rust parts of Tauri, or the frontend code itself, fantoccini doesn't really do that.
