BrowserBob Professional Edition:

Adds the following to the Developer Edition functionality


Action Lists:
Create batch lists of any BrowserBob functionality, to be launched by a single trigger. Action lists are sorted lists of actions. In an action list, you can add unlimited different actions on different target objects with parameters. An action list is triggered in the same way as a standard action of any object. Using action lists you can execute many actions one after the other, triggered by a single user input, scanning process, click of a button, script extension, event, ...
 

Events: .Adds mouse events and others to any object, to trigger any functionality. All BrowserBob objects provide several events, which can be used to trigger application behaviour. An event is a trigger, which is fired by the application when certain criteria are fulfilled.

Example: the event On Left Mouse Button Down is fired when the left mouse button is clicked over the respective owner object of the event. An example for an owner object is a button.

 

Error handling: Scanning for and specific reaction to navigation errors. Scans for specific navigation errors fired by the operating system. Allows you to react specifically to 404's and all other navigation errors. This is useful for checking if the application is on- or offline and gives you full control over appropriate reaction to any navigation error.

 

Global Variables: Create you own variables, open for 3rd party tuning. Global variables are user defined variables. Global variables can be created for any value you would like to reuse regularly in your project. They can be entered in parameter fields, as part of URL parameters, and more. Additionally, global variables can be open for 3rd party customization - values can be changed in the finished application.

 

BrowserBob Tuner: Change values of global variables in finished applications, 3rd party tuning. The external tool, which allows you to exchange the values of these variables in finished applications is the BrowserBob Tuner.  It can edit a finished BrowserBob application by reading all the public global variables and exchange their values.

Screensaver: Turn your program into an interactive Screensaver.
