📌 Questions? Suggestions? - Meet us in the Kantu user forum at https://forum.a9t9.com

Please post all questions and suggestions in our public user forum at https://forum.a9t9.com - the Kantu selenium ide forum is monitored by active users, tech support and the Kantu developers, so we would like to concentrate the discussion "over there".

Every user benefits from the questions and answers provided in the forum, that is why we would ask you to post the question in the forum first if a public forum is appropriate for your question.

Are you interested in becoming a Kantu beta tester?

As beta tester, we will email you (hidden) install links for new Kantu versions before they go live in the Chrome store. Beta versions never overwrite a regular Kantu version. The beta channel is technically a separate extension with its own toolbar icon. So beta-testing Kantu does not interfere with your regular Kantu projects and macros. We will notify you by email once a new version is available so you can grab it.

How to install Kantu:

Kantu for Chrome and Firefox is a modern Selenium IDE and Web Macro Recorder. You find the latest version always in the Chrome and Firefox web "stores". You can use it completely free for private and commercial purposes:

• Kantu for Chrome plus Selenium IDE in the Google Chrome Webstore

• Kantu for Firefox plus Selenium IDE in the Firefox Chrome Webstore

• Kantu plus Selenium IDE Homepage

• List of supported Selenium IDE commands

Building the Chrome Extension

We use Node V8.11.1 and NPM V5.6.0.

You can install Kantu directly from the Chrome or Firefox stores, which is the easiest and the recommended way of using the Kantu Selenium IDE. But of course developers can also build it directly from the source code with this command line:

npm i
npm run build (or build-ff for Firefox)

Once done, the ready-to-use extension code appears in the /dist directory (Chrome) or /dist_ff directory (Firefox).
