Selenium WebDriver Reviews & Product Details

Selenium WebDriver has all the features to easily automate the test scenarios and test cases for a web application. Everything from clicking a button to scrolling down a page to validating images on the webpage to capturing screenshots of the application, can be easily achieved via Selenium. Selenium has easy integration with other tools like Cucumber and Jenkins helps to also get reports of the executed test cases. Coding via Java and Javascript makes automating test scenarios very convenient. Moreover, Selenium being open-source, a lot of user assistance is available on the internet.

Selenium WebDriver as the name suggests, works only with web applications. Due to this, when there is some interaction needed with Windows application, like uploading a file, using Windows pop-up or getting screenshots of the timestamp displayed on the Windows taskbar, it fails. You need additional tools to achieve such different scenarios. Other than that, Selenium needs coding, unlike other automation tools where record and play facility is available.
