"The best automation tool to automate web browser"
What do you like best about Selenium?

First of all it is open-source project that provide single interface to write scripts in so many programming language like python, java, perl, ruby, C# etc.

Second thing, it is open-source so anyone can contribute in it from all over the world.

It is used for automation testing for high-end application. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Selenium?

Honestly speaking there is no disadvantage it as it is open-source so anyone can contribute but I feel very less people have knowledge of how to use this tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Selenium Automation testing"
What do you like best about Selenium?

Selenium test automation framework has matured over the years and provides multiple options to do every kind of test automation - be it websites or mobile apps. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Selenium?

Though it sounds like another automation framework, it requires a good amount of coding to write automation test cases. Sometimes we need to add an additional resource to the testing team for automation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Selenium Experience"
What do you like best about Selenium?

A person with basic knowledge of programming languages like java can write Selenium Test cases.

It makes it easy to write automated test cases which helps to improve test coverage reducing bugs at the later stage of product life. It helps to reduce the burden on Manual Testing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Selenium?

Need to have a perons in team who has knowledge of programming, test suit and product. Person should be knowledgable about technology, and should know how to test it using automation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good tool for testing your UI"
What do you like best about Selenium?

It's pretty thorough. You can test every element of your UI. Many of the tests are relatively simple. Lots of languages supported. I use Python, which of course, makes it easy to use. Java and other languages are also supported. It runs on Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge, and IE. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Selenium?

The learning curve is pretty steep. You're writing and running scripts rather than using a GUI to create and run your tests. There are many different commands you need to master and multiple ways of doing the same thing. This level of choice makes it more flexible, but it's not always clear what the most efficient way is to test something. Also, as you change your UI, your tests can easily break. This sensitivity to even minor UI changes may be an inevitable result of UI testing, but it seems brittle. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Best Software for Testing"
What do you like best about Selenium?

1) We can test any platform such as mobile applications, Desktop applications, browser, load testing, etc.

2) Here we can able to get the combined tool for all platforms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Selenium?

1) Its structure is a little bit harder such as test cases creation and error troubleshooting.

2) Limited support for plugins and platforms

3) Server requirements are required because we need to run eclipse IDE.

4) For coding repo we need to use third-party service such as git,gitlab etc Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Initial tool for Beginners in Testing"
What do you like best about Selenium?

It consists of Selenium IDE and is available as a plugin in multiple familiar browsers like Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, etc. This feature enables the new developers to get acquainted with the basic concept of Selenium IDE along with minimal knowledge of the topic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Selenium?

Not exactly dislike, but it does not provide ready-to-use templates in Java, Python, C#, PHP, JavaScript. A kind of most awaited feature that can help the developers to avoid using StackOverflow for basic initial setup. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
