Overall Satisfaction with Selenium

Selenium is used by just our department which is quality assurance. We use it basically for the GUI regression testing. We have a virtual private branch exchange and a lot of telecom features available for the call centre workplace. The selenium tests help with automating and running the entire GUI checks each time a new feature is deployed. This is scheduled as a cron job that runs overnight and gets the results in a graphical format.
  • Complete GUI regression.
  • Integration with other in-house apps thus providing various features like display of results in graphical format.
  • Ease of use and the freedom to code in the language you are comfortable with.
  • Use of selenium in desktop applications.
  • Enhancing the selenium uses to backend testing along with front end.
  • Improvements in the ways in which it can display the result.
  • Time saving.
  • Saves efforts.
  • Error free code.
  • Easy addition of new features.
  • QTP
Open source.
Ease of use.
Additional features.
Online materials and support.
Freedom of coding in any desired language you need.
Easy enhancement and maintenance of code and software.
Suited for GUI testing. Regression testing and integration with other in-house apps. Not suitable for testing backend applications and testing desktop applications. Testing limited only to GUI aspects. Test runs and result display can be enhanced. GUI needs to be improved. Support for IDE needs to be continued even with the latest Firefox OS version. IDE should be supported by other browsers as well.
