Welcome to the "Web Automation by Selenium WebDriver and Python: FB + Instagram + Linkedin" course, in which you will learn how to automate sending messages on Facebook, Instagram, and Linkedin from Excel/CSV files.
If you want to send the same message to your contacts quite often, it is a tedious job if you are doing it manually.
Lucky you are, as you have landed on this course, with this course you will be able to automate that process, you will just make an excel/CSV file, put all the contact numbers and the message, and then you will just run the python file and our code will send message to each person mentioned in the excel file, how cool is that?
Not only that, but you will also learn how to attach multimedia along with the text message, here in the excel sheet you will just give a path to the media file, and our code will just fetch that file and will send it along with the text message.
I will start by helping you to get your setup done, which includes Python, pip, and, PyCharm IDE installation, we will install the required python packages as and when needed.
First, we will learn about selenium web driver, and how to locate web elements via different technique messages, Then we will automate the process of sending messages.
Then after I'll teach you how to make a GUI for this application in Python using Tkinter and then we will integrate the functionality.
