## ℹ️ Description
Added Webselect-Function for Input/Dropdown Combobox
PR for issue/missing feature #677
# Fixes / Enhancements
Finding Special Attributes Elements can fail because they are currently
only selected using the name="..." attributes of the HTML elements. If
it fails, ALSO fallback-handle selecting special attribute HTML elements
by ID instead / additionally. (For example the "brands" Input/Combobox
for Mens Shoes...
When trying to select a Value in a <select>, it does not only rely on
the actual Option value (xxx in the example <options
value="xxx">yyy</...>) but instead also on the displayed HTML value
(i.e. yyy in above example). This improves UX because the User doesnt
have to check the actual "value" of the Option but instead can check the
displayed Value from the Browsers Display directly.
Testcases for Webselect_Combobox were not added due to missing knowledge
about Async Mocking properly.
## 📋 Changes Summary
✅ Fixes & Enhancements
- New WebSelect Functionality
- Improved Element Detection for Special Attributes
- Enhanced <select> Option Matching Logic
This improves UX and test robustness — users no longer need to know the
exact underlying value, as matching also works with the visible label
shown in the browser.
🧩 Result
These updates make dropdown and combobox interactions more intuitive,
resilient, and user-friendly across diverse HTML structures.

## Summary by CodeRabbit
* **Bug Fixes**
* Field lookup now falls back to locating by ID when name lookup times
out.
* Option selection uses a two-pass match (value then displayed text);
JS-path failures now surface as timeouts.
* Error and log messages localized and clarified.
* **New Features**
* Support for combobox-style inputs: type into the input, open dropdown,
and select by visible text (handles special characters).
* **Tests**
* Added tests for combobox selection, missing dropdowns, no-match
errors, value-path selection, and special-character handling.

issues.
## 📋 Changes Summary

operations; moved blocking network and file work to background tasks.
* Added async file/path helpers and async port‑check before browser
connections.
* **Tests**
* Expanded unit tests for path helpers, image download success/failure,
prefs writing, and directory creation/renaming workflows.

## ℹ️ Description
* Strengthen the session/logging/update-check tests to exercise real
resources and guards while bringing the update-check docs in line with
the supported interval units.
- Link to the related issue(s): Issue #N/A
## 📋 Changes Summary
- Reworked the `WebScrapingMixin` session tests so they capture each
`stop` handler before the browser reference is nulled, ensuring cleanup
logic is exercised without crashing.
- Added targeted publish and update-check tests that patch the async
helpers, guard logic, and logging handlers while confirming
`requests.get` is skipped when the state gate is closed.
- Updated `docs/update-check.md` to list only the actually supported
interval units (up to 30 days) and noted the new guard coverage in the
changelog.

## ℹ️ Description
- Related issues: #671, #658
- Introduces configurable timeout controls plus retry/backoff handling
for flaky DOM operations.
We often see timeouts which are note reproducible in certain
configurations. I suspect timeout issues based on a combination of
internet speed, browser, os, age of the computer and the weather.
This PR introduces a comprehensive config model to tweak timeouts.
## 📋 Changes Summary
- add TimeoutConfig to the main config/schema and expose timeouts in
README/docs
- wire WebScrapingMixin, extractor, update checker, and browser
diagnostics to honor the configurable timeouts and retries
- update translations/tests to cover the new behaviour and ensure
lint/mypy/pyright pipelines remain green

## ℹ️ Description
*Provide a concise summary of the changes introduced in this pull
request.*
- Link to the related issue(s): Issue #
- Describe the motivation and context for this change.
Refactors the test harness for faster and more reliable feedback: adds
deterministic time freezing for update checks, accelerates and refactors
smoke tests to run in-process, defaults pytest to xdist with durations
tracking, and adjusts CI triggers so PRs run the test matrix only once.
## 📋 Changes Summary
- add pytest-xdist + durations reporting defaults, force deterministic
locale and slow markers, and document the workflow adjustments
- run smoke tests in-process (no subprocess churn), mock update
checks/logging, and mark slow specs appropriately
- deflake update check interval tests by freezing datetime and simplify
FixedDateTime helper
- limit GitHub Actions `push` trigger to `main` so feature branches rely
on the single pull_request run

* Ensure tests run in a consistent English locale and restore prior
locale after each run
* Mark integration scraping tests as slow for clearer categorization
* Replace subprocess-based CLI tests with an in-process runner that
returns structured results and captures combined stdout/stderr/logs;
disable update checks during smoke tests
* Freeze current time in update-check tests for deterministic assertions
* Add mock for process enumeration in web‑scraping unit tests to

## ℹ️ Description
*Replace custom RemoteObject serialization wrapper with direct NoDriver
0.47+ RemoteObject API usage for better performance and
maintainability.*
- **Motivation**: The custom wrapper was unnecessary complexity when
NoDriver 0.47+ provides direct RemoteObject API
- **Context**: Upgrading from NoDriver 0.39 to 0.47 introduced
RemoteObject, and we want to use it as intended
- **Goal**: Future-proof implementation using the standard NoDriver
patterns
## 📋 Changes Summary
- Replace custom serialization wrapper with direct RemoteObject API
usage
- Implement proper RemoteObject detection and conversion in
web_execute()
- Add comprehensive _convert_remote_object_value() method for recursive
conversion
- Handle key/value list format from deep_serialized_value.value
- Add type guards and proper type checking for RemoteObject instances
- Maintain internal API stability while using RemoteObject as intended
- Add 19 comprehensive test cases covering all conversion scenarios
- Application tested and working with real ad download, update and
publish
