What is Selenium?

Selenium automates browsers. That's it! What you do with that power is entirely up to you. Primarily it is for automating web applications for testing purposes, but is certainly not limited to just that. Boring web-based administration tasks can (and should) also be automated as well.

What differentiates Selenium from other similar products?

Programming languages supported by Selenium include Java, Python, C#, Ruby, and others. It allows you to choose the language that best suits your interests and abilities. Selenium facilitates the creation and execution of tests by integrating with a number of testing frameworks, including TestNG, JUnit, and others. Certain tools might not integrate with widely used testing frameworks as smoothly.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

You may take screenshots and compare them with Selenium to ensure that the user interface is presented appropriately, as well as record and validate text. You can perform tests on Windows, macOS, and Linux environments thanks to Selenium's compatibility for different operating systems.

What do you dislike most about this product?

It can be difficult to install and configure browser drivers, manage dependencies, and configure the environment.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

To make testing easier to arrange and run more effectively, I suggest extending Selenium with testing frameworks like TestNG or JUnit.
