Overall Satisfaction with Selenium
Selenium as an open source test platform/ framework is used by the whole organization. It is used as automation testing framework and widely used for UI testing.
- One of the best user communities.
- Easy to learn and bring new folks who are new to test automation up to speed.
- Works well with many new plugins and test frameworks.
- Open source is a better alternative to HP UFT when it comes to UI testing.
- Best suited for UI testing - would be nice if this could be developed/ tweaked for unit testing as well.
- Support for mobile testing.
- Performance testing.
- Since this is open source and easily adaptable, it is well suited for small to large organizations' testing needs.
- Limited only to functional / UI testing - means organizations will have to use the tool only at the end of the testing cycle for regression testing only.
- Tons of resources available in the market to support the testing efforts on Selenium and easy to learn and adapt.
