Automated Web/HTTP Profiler with Selenium-RC and Python

A small open source project I am working on:

Selenium-profiler is a web/http profiler built with Selenium-RC and Python. It profiles page load time and network traffic for a web page. The profiler uses Selenium-RC to automate site navigation (via browser), proxy traffic, and sniff the proxy for network traffic stats as requests pass through during a page load.

It is useful to answer questions like:

• how many http requests does that page make?
• how fast are the http responses coming back?
• which http status codes are returned?
• how many of each object type are requested?
• what is the total page load time?

Get it here:
