Overall Satisfaction with Selenium

  1. Create a WebDriver instance.
  2. Navigate to a Web page.
  3. Locate an HTML element on the Web page.
  4. Perform an action on an HTML element.
  5. Anticipate the browser response to the action.
  6. Run tests and record test results using a test framework.
  7. Conclude the test.
  • Selenium is the best UI and Data automation tool currently on the market.
  • Ease of use is a primary selling point
  • I am ok moving from the free model if enhancements and updates can continue
  • This is the best tool on the market and a little bit of IT support would go a long way!
  • It ensures higher ROI on the initially huge investments done.
  • You can test 24*7 from a remotely held device as well.
  • There is less manual intervention, so the possibility of errors diminishes.
  • It makes the test scripts reusable – need new scripts every time even with changes in the version of the OS on the device and the tests can recur without any errors.
  • Automation helps you find bugs at an early stage.
  • Automated tests make the process more reliable and the tests more dependable.
  • Most importantly, it enables testing in volumes. For instance, it allows you to run tests on thousands of mobile devices. Now, this is impossible with Manual Testing.
As I said earlier...This IS the industry standard for test automation.
