Why AutoLocator
Stop hand-picking selectors one at a time
DevTools is great for a single element. AutoLocator batch-discovers visible UI, scores stability, and exports code your team can paste into tests.
AutoLocator ✦
- Scan all visible actionable UI at once
- Readable Button_, Input_, DD_ naming
- Export Python, Java, or TypeScript
- Dropdown & state analysis built in
Features
Built for QA engineers, not scrapers
Every feature is tuned for stable test automation — not dumping raw DOM trees.
Stability scoring
Flags fragile XPath, dynamic classes, and nth-child chains before CI breaks.
Readable names
Semantic Button_, Input_, DD_ prefixes from labels and ARIA.
Export code
Python, Java, and TypeScript page object snippets.
Dropdown discovery
Capture hidden select options and custom dropdowns.
Side panel mode
Pin the panel open while you explore complex flows.
Privacy first
Free analysis never leaves your browser. No silent telemetry.
Works with your stack
Export locators for the frameworks QA teams already use — no vendor lock-in.

Why QA engineers choose AutoLocator
AutoLocator is a locator generator Chrome extension for test automation — discover, score, and export CSS/XPath selectors without sending page HTML to external servers.
The locator problem every QA team recognizes
Flaky locators are not a framework bug — they are a discovery problem. Teams ship tests with selectors copied under time pressure, then spend sprint capacity debugging CI instead of shipping features.
AutoLocator flips the workflow: discover and score every actionable element once, name them for page objects, export code, and focus human judgment on edge cases — not on hand-picking #btn-3847.
Built for Selenium, Playwright, Cypress, and WebdriverIO
Whether your stack is Java TestNG, Python pytest, TypeScript Playwright, or Cypress component tests, you need the same thing: stable identifiers for visible UI. AutoLocator is the Chrome extension that produces them locally, without sending your app HTML to a cloud scraper.
- Python & Java for Selenium WebDriver
- TypeScript for Playwright page objects
- CSS/XPath for Cypress cy.get()
- Side panel to keep locators visible while exploring

FAQ
Common questions
Does it work with Selenium and Playwright?
Yes — CSS/XPath locators plus Python, Java, and TypeScript export. See Selenium and Playwright guides.
Is my page data sent to a server?
Free analysis runs entirely in your browser. Read our privacy policy. Pro AI refine uses a secure backend — only when you opt in via Pro upgrade.
How is this different from Chrome DevTools?
DevTools inspects one element at a time. AutoLocator batch-discovers visible UI, names elements, scores stability, and exports code. Full comparison →
What does Pro add?
Pro AI refinement cleans noisy output — fewer duplicate links, better names, less weak CSS. See Pro plans.
Is it free to try?
Yes — the Chrome extension is free with full local analysis. Pro is optional for AI-cleaned output.
