What is the best way in 2022 to capture network logs in selenium? I am aware there are multiple examples that use browsermob as a proxy server. But looking at GitHub looks like browsermob repo is not being maintained anymore.

In my app I use a sdk for authentication purposes, which internally use a web worker to store credentials. I saw some git issues opened on this(Git issue, Official site), in testcafe repo, and seems the feature is not yet supported.
Can I know exactly, whether this feature is supported or not in testcafe?
In v1.10.1 and later, TestCafe fully supports Web Workers. If you face some issues with them, please describe them greater detail.
I am trying to record script in JMeter through Citrix protocol, able to connect citrix server through JMeter but not able to capture the screenshots. Please help me regarding this
As of January 2020, you can use this new JMeter plugin
It allows recording, replaying and performance testing Citrix exposed applications.
It can be installed using jmeter-plugins-manager:
https://jmeter-plugins.org/?search=citrix
To see how to install it:

If you're looking to learn jmeter correctly, this book will help you.
I'm able to do analytics testing using browsermob and selenium in my previous project, but 'm not able to do same with mobile web using appium and selenium.
Though m able to start the proxy server but not able to bind it with my mobile web.
Thanks
I'm closing this question as i got the answer. FYI its same as for desktop only we have to set ours mobile proxy to same before starting the test.
I can't found any question/answer about that (probably I don't know how to find it...)
Could somebody give me a global idea to execute +200 Selenium webdriver tests (Python) from cloud servers/tools?
Thanks!!

Another way is Saucelabs, using this service you'll be able to just send your Selenium
Java/Python tests
to their Cloud infrastructure for execution. The benefits of such testing are obvious – no need to waste time and resources setting up and maintaining your own VM farm, and additionally you can run your test suite in various browsers in parallel. Also no need to share any sensitive data, source code and databases.
As said in this acticle:
Of course inserting this roundtrip across the Internet is not without cost. The penalty of running Selenium tests this way is that they run quite slowly, typically about 3 times slower in my experience. This means that this is not something that individual developers are going to do from their workstations.
To ease the integration of this service into your projects, maybe you'll have to write a some kind of saucelabs-adapter, that will do the necessary SSH tunnel setup/teardown and Selenium configuration, automatically as part of a test.
And for a better visualization:
Here's a global idea:
Use Amazon Web Services.
Using AWS, you can have a setup like this:
1 Selenium Grid. IP: X.X.X.X
100 Selenium nodes connecting to X.X.X.X:4444/wd/register
Each Selenium node has a node config, running 2 maxSessions at once. (depending on size of course)
Have also, a Continuous integration server like Jenkins, run your Python tests Against X.X.X.X grid.
i am using webdriverbackedSelenium for my tests , i see that it isn't supporting capture network traffic method. can anyone tell me when webdriverbackedselenium is extending default selenium why isn't it supporting captureNetworkTraffic method
Selenium WebDriver and Selenium RC use fundamentally different mechanisms to automate the browser. RC installed itself as a proxy in some modes of operation, which allowed it to capture all communications between browser and web server. WebDriver's philosophy is designed to more closely emulate the user's experience, including not blindly installing a proxy without the user's knowledge, so WebDriver is not able to capture that traffic by default.
Selenium RC is deprecated, and has been for over two years. It is receiving no attention from the development team, and is unlikely to be improved in the future. However, since many people have significant investments in code using the RC API, the project provides a bridge class, WebDriverBackedSelenium. It is designed to allow you to migrate your RC code to WebDriver over time. It is not intended as a permanent solution. It does not, will not, cannot, and should not implement every single method of the Selenium RC API. It implements enough to allow your code to compile and mostly run, giving you the opportunity to change your code over to the WebDriver API.
If you absolutely require capturing network traffic to the browser using WebDriver, the API allows you to specify a proxy to use with the browser being automated. There are a number of proxies out there which allow you to capture, examine, and even modify the traffic to the browser. Some examples that people have used to good effect are BrowserMob proxy and Fiddler.
