Ergonomic selector syntax, supports chaining of text, css and xpath selectors

# and select it's parent `input` element with xpath
Click    "Login" >> xpath=../input
# Select element with CSS strategy and select button in it with text strategy
Click    div.dialog >> "Ok"

Evaluate in browser page

New Page   ${LOGIN_URL}
${ref}=    Get Element    h1
Get Property    ${ref}    innerText    ==    Login Page
Execute JavaScript    (elem) => elem.innerText = "abc"    ${ref}
Get Property    ${ref}    innerText    ==    abc

Asynchronously waiting for HTTP requests and responses

# The button with id `delayed_request` fires a delayed request. We use a promise to capture it.
${promise}=    Promise To    Wait For Response    matcher=    timeout=3s
Click    \#delayed_request
${body}=    Wait For    ${promise}

Device Descriptors

${device}=  Get Device  iPhone X
New Context  &{device}
New Page
Get Viewport Size  # returns { "width": 375, "height": 812 }

Sending HTTP requests and parsing their responses

&{response}=    HTTP    /api/post    POST    {"name": "John"}
Should Be Equal    ${response.status}    ${200}
