What do you like best about Selenium IDE?

Selenium ide is a web automation tool. It's an open-source tool, which works on record and playback system. Some different commands are asserted commands, wait for a page to load. Selenium ide is easy to understand, java basic knowledge is required. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Selenium IDE?

It is not able to support different web browsers such as opera mini and internet explorer. It does not allow third-party applications. also selenium IDE is open source but not that much secure so security concerns are also affecting overall performance of selenium IDE .basically this are not dislikes but areas where need improvement.

"One of the best Automation Integrations..!!"
5/5
What do you like best about Selenium IDE?

One best thing to describe is the recording which allows users to record the session and create automation accordingly. It's easy to start with - simply download it as an extension to the required browser, mainly for firefox and chrome, and start using the recorder - test the recording and you can automate things easily. 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.

What do you dislike about Selenium IDE?

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.
