CoScripter (formerly Koala) is a discontinued a browser-based macro recorder developed by IBM Research. Implemented as an extension for the Mozilla Firefox browser,[1] it records user actions and saves them in semi-natural language scripts. The scripts made are saved in a central wiki for sharing with other users.[2] CoScripter aims at end-users through the use of programming by demonstration, a technique to create automated tasks without using a programming language.[3][4]
