This program is intended to open up an online multiple-choice poll, namely https://pollev.com/<POLL_ID>, choose the first choice, and submit a response.

My class is from 14:50 to 15:20 (50 minutes) every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. The poll is posted anytime between these times. Therefore, I set my cron job to begin a Cypress run at 14:50, and I configured Cypress to keep the test running for 1 hour.

• Install Cypress
• Install Crontab
• Clone this repository

• Set your PROJ\_HOME in cron-runner.sh
• Set the correct POLL_URL in cypress/integration/runner.js
• Set the USERNAME in cypress/integration/runner.js that you'd like to submit with
• Set the correct TIMEOUT in cypress/integration/runner.js
  • Example: my class duration is 50 minutes. I choose 60 minutes, and I start the cron job 5 minutes before class (cron can sometimes start late).

Open your crontab user file

$ crontab -e

Now, add your PATH and scheduled time (I start my job at 14:45 every MWF)

PATH=<COPIED_FROM_YOUR_PATH>

45 14 * * 1,3,5 /PATH/TO/cron-runner.sh

• Instead of writing to a log file, it would be nice to using the unix mail command. Then, you can get emails whenever the job successfully submitted a poll response.
