Well - downloading could be automated on the server. But *testing* is
still needed, since you don't know, if your website still works with a
newer version of a third party script.

In fact you would need a kind of build environment where you can run a
development copy of your site for this. Testing could be automated with
Cypress where you define actions and the expected result.
