Record 'HTTP' Calls to Disk

Record test suite 'HTTP' requests and replays them during future runs. A port of the Ruby gem of the same name (< https://github.com/vcr/vcr/>). Works by hooking into the 'webmockr' R package for matching 'HTTP' requests by various rules ('HTTP' method, 'URL', query parameters, headers, body, etc.), and then caching real 'HTTP' responses on disk in 'cassettes'. Subsequent 'HTTP' requests matching any previous requests in the same 'cassette' use a cached 'HTTP' response.

R Bindings for 'Selenium WebDriver'

Provides a set of R bindings for the 'Selenium 2.0 WebDriver' (see < https://selenium.dev/documentation/en/> for more information) using the 'JsonWireProtocol' (see < https://github.com/SeleniumHQ/selenium/wiki/JsonWireProtocol> for more information). 'Selenium 2.0 WebDriver' allows driving a web browser natively as a user would either locally or on a remote machine using the Selenium server it marks a leap forward in terms of web browser automation. Selenium automates web browsers (commonly referred to as browsers). Using RSelenium you can automate browsers locally or remotely.

Bindings for 'Tabula' PDF Table Extractor Library

Bindings for the 'Tabula' < http://tabula.technology/> 'Java' library, which can extract tables from PDF documents. The 'tabulizerjars' package < https://github.com/ropensci/tabulizerjars> provides versioned 'Java' .jar files, including all dependencies, aligned to releases of 'Tabula'.

Stubbing and Setting Expectations on 'HTTP' Requests

Stubbing and setting expectations on 'HTTP' requests. Includes tools for stubbing 'HTTP' requests, including expected request conditions and response conditions. Match on 'HTTP' method, query parameters, request body, headers and more. Can be used for unit tests or outside of a testing context.

Preliminary Visualisation of Data

Create preliminary exploratory data visualisations of an entire dataset to identify problems or unexpected features using 'ggplot2'.

'Webdriver'/'Selenium' Binary Manager

There are a number of binary files associated with the 'Webdriver'/'Selenium' project (see < http://www.seleniumhq.org/download/>, < https://sites.google.com/a/chromium.org/chromedriver/>, < https://github.com/mozilla/geckodriver>, < http://phantomjs.org/download.html> and < https://github.com/SeleniumHQ/selenium/wiki/InternetExplorerDriver> for more information).

'Programmatic Interface to the 'openfisheries.org' API'

A programmatic interface to 'openfisheries.org'. This package is part of the 'rOpenSci' suite ( http://ropensci.org).

Model Comparison Using 'babette'

'BEAST2' (< https://www.beast2.org>) is a widely used Bayesian phylogenetic tool, that uses DNA/RNA/protein data and many model priors to create a posterior of jointly estimated phylogenies and parameters. 'mcbette' allows to do a Bayesian model comparison over some site and clock models, using 'babette' (< https://github.com/ropensci/babette/>).

Interface to Chromosome Counts Database API

A programmatic interface to the Chromosome Counts Database ( http://ccdb.tau.ac.il/). This package is part of the rOpenSci suite ( http://ropensci.org)
