First, you'll explore how to understand and navigate dynamic web pages using Selenium WebDriver, as well as how to record, replay, and customize user activity sessions to interact with web elements effectively. Next, you'll discover how to manage wait times, locate elements, and navigate complex web pages with various types of selectors. Then, you'll dive into parsing HTML using Beautiful Soup and applying best practices for web scraping. Finally, you'll learn how to implement a real estate property scraper project, putting all the acquired skills into practice. When you're finished with this course, you'll have the skills and knowledge of web scraping with Python and Selenium needed to efficiently extract valuable data from dynamically-rendered web pages.
