Proxy for BotChief

It means a proxy that has no access to the Internet. It is created using special software on the user's computer. Most often it is used to check the performance of the created site or web-application.

Automapper is a library primarily used for mapping data between objects in C# applications. It is not specifically designed for parsing XML, but you can use it in conjunction with other libraries, such as XmlDocument or XDocument, to map XML data to C# objects.

Here's a simple example of parsing XML using XDocument and Automapper:

Assuming you have the following XML structure:

  John
  Doe

And a corresponding C# class:

public class PersonDto
{
    public string FirstName { get; set; }
    public string LastName { get; set; }
}

You can use Automapper to map the XML data to your C# object:

using AutoMapper;
using System;
using System.Xml.Linq;

class Program
{
    static void Main()
    {
        // XML data
        string xmlData = "JohnDoe";

        // Parse XML using XDocument
        XDocument xmlDoc = XDocument.Parse(xmlData);

        // Configure Automapper
        MapperConfiguration config = new MapperConfiguration(cfg =>
        {
            cfg.CreateMap()
                .ForMember(dest => dest.FirstName, opt => opt.MapFrom(src => src.Element("FirstName").Value))
                .ForMember(dest => dest.LastName, opt => opt.MapFrom(src => src.Element("LastName").Value));
        });

        IMapper mapper = config.CreateMapper();

        // Map XML to C# object
        PersonDto personDto = mapper.Map(xmlDoc.Root);

        // Print the result
        Console.WriteLine($"FirstName: {personDto.FirstName}");
        Console.WriteLine($"LastName: {personDto.LastName}");
    }
}

In this example, we use Automapper's CreateMap method to define a mapping between XElement and PersonDto. The ForMember method is used to specify how each property of PersonDto should be mapped from the corresponding XML element.

Keep in mind that Automapper may be more beneficial when dealing with complex object mappings rather than simple XML parsing scenarios. For straightforward XML parsing tasks, using XDocument or XmlDocument directly might be sufficient.

To hide the Chrome browser during Selenium C# tests, you can use the --headless flag when initializing the ChromeDriver. The --headless flag runs Chrome in headless mode, which means it will run in the background without a visible user interface.

Here's an example of how to set up a headless Chrome browser using Selenium C#:

First, install the necessary NuGet packages for Selenium WebDriver and ChromeDriver:

Install-Package OpenQA.Selenium.Chrome
Install-Package OpenQA.Selenium.WebDriver

Then, create a new C# class for your Selenium test, for example, HeadlessChromeExample.cs.

Write the test code:

using OpenQA.Selenium;
using OpenQA.Selenium.Chrome;
using System;

namespace HeadlessChromeExample
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            // Set the path to the ChromeDriver executable
            string driverPath = "/path/to/chromedriver";

            // Create a new instance of the ChromeDriver with the --headless flag
            IWebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(driverPath, new ChromeOptions()
            {
                // Set the headless mode to true
                Headless = true
            });

            // Navigate to the webpage
            driver.Navigate().GoToUrl("http://example.com");

            // Perform your test actions here

            // Close the WebDriver instance
            driver.Quit();
        }
    }
}

Run the test:

You can run your test using your preferred C# IDE or by using the command line. If you're using a console application, you can run the test by pressing Ctrl + F5.

This should help you set up a headless Chrome browser using Selenium C# and execute your test without the browser being visible. Make sure to replace "/path/to/chromedriver" with the actual path to your ChromeDriver executable and "http://example.com" with the URL of the webpage you want to test.

In CentOS, if there is no graphical interface (from the terminal), proxy configuration is done through the export http_proxy=http://User:Pass@Proxy:Port/ command. Accordingly, User is the user, Pass is the password to identify you, Proxy is the IP address of the proxy, and Port is the port number. If you have DE, the configuration can be done via Network Manager (as in any other Linux distribution).

Regular Windows functionality has a minimum of settings for proxies. Therefore, it is recommended to use third-party applications for this purpose. For example, Proxy Switcher or Proxifier. There you can not only set the server characteristics but also, for example, create a folder for packets of traffic that are transmitted through the local network.
