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.

Some of unique features which make it better than others are like : 1> Selenium supports multiple browser , By simple command you can lunch your preferred browser . 2>It supports multiple language as well . 3>It’s compatible with every OS. 4>It also has integration for open-source frameworks like TestNG, JUnit and lot more . 4> Performance of selenium is also better than others .
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
It's really helpful in automating web application which are made for different web browser and it is very fast to implement in any language because it has simple code. It helps us to perform function testing , regression testing of the application and it's useful in generating the test data required for performance testing. Here we can customize the selenium we driver as per our requirements which reduce overall test execution time .

It has a large community which is very helpful when facing any issue.
What do you dislike most about this product?
1>To use selenium you requires good programming skills but now some other tools in the market already which do all the automation and data scraping using drag and drop options which selenium can adopt as it's feature. 2> Not allow to perform data base testing using selenium . 3> Selenium does not support mobile automation testing on its own. 4> You can't perform testing on images as well .
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
It's useful when you have to test web application which supports multiples browser and language. It's very dynamic QA team constantly keeps adding more test cases to the test suites to ensure maximum coverage and then combine it with Jenkins to run the test cases which reduce lot of manual effort. It's provides option to customize selenium web drives as per our requirements which saves lot of time and very useful . As it's an open source application you can easily learn from the large community.
