One best thing to describe is the recording which allows users to record the session and create automation accordingly.

The script can be easily generated based on the recorded part. It supports many languages to work upon without restrictions. One needs minimal knowledge of the language to work with Selenium. It's the best for the beginner in automation. It also has built-in file login Plug-in. If needed, one can easily debug and also create and set breakpoints according to the requirement.

It is limited to Chrome and Firefox and not all the browsers are compatible just like other software. Error handling is also missing if using selenium as the IDE for the automation - One has to do that on his own. If Database testing is to be done, then also selenium is non-useful. Test script grouping can also be considered a lack in the selenium. If all these things are enhanced then it's the best tool to work upon. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Another major drawback of Selenium IDE is that it cannot be used with complex data as it is designed only for simple data.
