    final class WebKit.AutomationSession : GObject.Object
    {
      /* No available fields */

Automation Session.

WebKitAutomationSession represents an automation session of a WebKitWebContext. When a new session is requested, a WebKitAutomationSession is created and the signal WebKitWebContext::automation-started is emitted with the WebKitAutomationSession as argument. Then, the automation client can request the session to create a new `WebKitWebView` to interact with it. When this happens the signal `WebKitAutomationSession::create-web-view` is emitted.
