Selenium
and IDE Overview:
Selenium is a portable software testing framework for web
applications. Selenium provides a record/playback tool for
authoring
tests without learning a test scripting language
(Selenium-IDE).
It also provides a test domain-specific language (Selenese) to
write
tests in a number of popular programming languages, including
Java,
C#, Groovy, Perl, PHP, Python and Ruby.
The tests can then be run against most modern web browsers.
Selenium
deploys on Windows, Linux, and Macintosh platforms.
It is
open-source software, released under the Apache 2.0 license, and
can be downloaded and used without charge.
Selenium was originally developed by Jason Huggins in 2004 as an
internal tool at ThoughtWorks.
Huggins
was later joined by other programmers and testers
at ThoughtWorks, before Paul Hammant joined the team and
steered
the development of the second mode of operation that
would later
become 'Selenium Remote Control' (RC).
Installing
