For my work,i have to find if a patent name is exist in the USPTO database and record the filing/issued date of the patent.
I wrote a simple python scripts to simulate the action that I do in a manual way
for example:
Step 1. Open the browser
Step 2. Paste the url in the broswer
Step 3. Paste the patent name in the search bar
Step 4. Select the matched patent name and click to find more info.
But the problem is, the simulation script always need to consider the page visiting limits/page load error and some others unexpected error during the running.
Is there a better way to achieve the patent-searching task?
