Selenium is an open source tool for web application testing, using this tool we can test Functional or System tests for web applications as well as Selenium is not meant for unit testing. Selenium is primarily developed in Java Script and browser technologies and hence supports all the major browsers on all the platforms.
In terms of coverage for platform and browser Selenium is one of the best tool available in the market. For example, you can have your automation scripts written for Firefox on Windows, with out major changes you can run them on Firefox in Mac.
Selenium tests run directly in a browser, just like real users do. It runs in Internet Explorer, Mozilla and Firefox on Windows, Linux, and Macintosh, Safari on the Mac.They having plans to target Safari on the iPhone in some months.
There are three variants of Selenium, which can be used in isolation or in combination to create complete automation suite for your web applications.
- Selenium IDE.
