Selenium IDE Reviews & Product Details - Page 13

What do you like best about Selenium IDE?

The record and playback, Plugin support and it is not just a record and playback tool but a full-fledged development environment, which even lets you create/edit your scripts by typing in the commands (in Selenese). It's great to have selenium pop-up with one click and as an integrated sidepanel. Saves me a lot of clicks to switch between the browser and selenium window. I'd love to have this integrated with the IDE itself, but for now, this pluggin is a must have for al the IDE devs. With Selenium IDE is, you can convert recorded Selenium IDE scripts into different languages and after conversion you can run it in Selenium RC.

What do you like best about Selenium IDE?

Selenium IDE is an open source test tool to run functional test on your Web application. It is implemented as a Firefox extension, and allows you to record, edit, and debug tests. It records user actions in most of the popular languages like Java, C#, Perl, Ruby etc. But, in order the run those scripts, you need Selenium Remote Control or WebDriver.

It's very easy to use this tool i.e. record and playback.
