Selenium Testing Services

Selenium testing services enable you to automate the testing of your web application across different web browsers and operating systems – faster and at less cost. Basic record-and-playback interactions with the browser can be done without learning any test scripting language. However, Selenium also provides programming language specific bindings to drive a browser for more powerful test automation possibilities.

What is Selenium
In essence, Selenium is a suite of open-source tools to automate web browsers. This power is taken advantage of by many popular organizations around the world today to create robust browser-based test automation. Apart from having become (or becoming) a native part of popular browsers, Selenium is also behind many other browser automation tools, frameworks, and APIs. Selenium is increasingly used by automation testers and organizations around the world for automating the GUI and functionality testing of web applications. 

Selenium Automation Testing Advantages
With the proliferation of web-based applications and agile development practices, using software tools to run repeatable regression tests is becoming increasingly common. There are a number of proprietary and open-source test automation tools available in the market today. Selenium is arguably the most widely used open-source solution for automated testing of web applications. Automation tools like Selenium facilitate unlimited iterations of test case execution, frequent regression testing, customized defect reporting, support for agile and responsive software processes, finding bugs missed by manual testing, etc.

Primary Tools in the Selenium Suite
Selenium IDE, a Firefox add-on, is used for simple record-and-playback interactions with the browser to create quick scripts for bug reproduction and aiding exploratory testing. Selenium WebDriver lets you leverage the power of multiple programming languages (e.g. C#, Java, PHP, Perl, Python, Ruby) to drive web browsers to create robust regression automation and scale / distribute test scripts across many environments. Selenium WebDriver is the successor of Selenium Remote Control. Selenium WebDriver better supports dynamic web pages where page elements may change through Ajax without a page refresh.
