QWebKit how running js on page from python

How can I inject JavaScript into a page via QWebKit? 

import sys
from PyQt5.QtCore import *
from PyQt5.QtWebKitWidgets import *
from PyQt5.QtWidgets import QApplication

js = "alert('test');"

def function():
    app = QApplication(sys.argv)

    web = QWebView()
    web.load(QUrl("url"))

    # run js

    web.show()

    sys.exit(app.exec_())


if __name__ == '__main__':
    function()

The js code is a simple example, I don't know exactly what code will be run.

You have to run through the evaluateJavaScript() method of the mainFrame of the page associated with the view. It is advisable to run it after loading the page:

import sys
from PyQt5.QtCore import QUrl
from PyQt5.QtWebKitWidgets import QWebView
from PyQt5.QtWidgets import QApplication

js = "alert('test');"


def function():
    app = QApplication(sys.argv)

    web = QWebView()
    web.load(QUrl("https://stackoverflow.com"))
    # web.page().mainFrame().evaluateJavaScript(js)

    def on_load_finished(ok):
        if ok:
            web.page().mainFrame().evaluateJavaScript(js)

    web.loadFinished.connect(on_load_finished)

    web.show()

    sys.exit(app.exec_())


if __name__ == "__main__":
    function()
