Approach 3 – using SeleniumBASE

If the script is done by using SeleniumBASE, the browser proxy can be specified with proxy command options. Please be aware that our example, NodeGoat_SignIn.py, cannot be executed directly by using SeleniumBASE. Here are the steps to convert our original selenium script into SeleniumBASE style.
