The document discusses Selenium, a suite of browser automation tools created by Jason Huggins, comprising four main components: IDE, Remote Control (RC), WebDriver, and Grid. It outlines the functionalities of these components, including the ability to record and play back scripts, run tests in parallel across multiple browsers, and details various Selenium WebDriver commands. The document highlights advantages such as open-source nature, multi-language support, and flexibility for testing web applications.

1. CONTENTS :
• Introduction
• Components
• Selenium commands
• Advantages
• Disadvantages
• Conclusion

2. • Selenium is a suite of tools used for
browser automation
• A well organized tool to develop test cases
or test suites
• Jason Huggins introduced selenium
• It is developed using java scripts
• It composed of 4 main components
IDE, Remote Control, Webdriver and Grid
• A tool to test the web based applications

3. Selenium is mainly built on 3 components.
1.Selenium IDE
2.Selenium RC
3.Selenium Grid
4.Selenium Webdriver

4. • IDE stands for Integrated Development
Environment.
• Which is used for Record and Play back the
scripts.
• It is an Add on for Mozilla Firefox, which
means we can download the Selenium IDE
from Mozilla Firefox and we can Record
and Run the scripts in Mozilla Firefox only.
• Selenium IDE is accountable for user
actions.
• We can Run the Recorded scripts against
other browsers by using Selenium RC.

5. • RC stands for Remote Control.
• It is a Server and launches the Browser.
• It acts as a API and Library of Selenium.
• We need to configure the Selenium RC with
the supported language, then we can
automate the application.

6. • Selenium Grid is used for launching the
multiple browsers with supported operating
system in parallel.
• We can run the scripts on different browsers
in parallel.
• It allows you to easily run multiple tests in
parallel, on multiple machines, in a
heterogeneous environment.

7. Selenium Web Driver:
• Selenium WebDriver is the successor to
Selenium RC.
• Selenium WebDriver accepts commands
and sends them to a browser.
• This is implemented through a browser-
specific browser driver, which sends
commands to a browser and retrieves
results.

8. 1. get(String url) command :
Syntax: driver.get(URL);
It loads a new web page in the current browser
window and accepts a string parameter that
specifies the URL of the web page to be loaded.
2. getTitle() Command :
Syntax: driver.getTitle();
It gets the title of the current web page
displayed in the browser. It does not accept
any parameters. It returns the title of the
specified URL as a string.
3. getCurrentUrl() Command :
Syntax: driver.getCurrentUrl();
It gets the URL of the current web page
shown in the browser. It does not accept any
parameters and returns the URL as a string.

9. 4. getPageSource() Command:
Syntax: driver.getPageSource();
It gets the entire page source of the current web page loaded in the browser. It
does not accept any parameters, but it does return the page source as a string.
5. close() Command :
Syntax: driver.close();
It closes the current browser window or tab. Also, this command does not accept
any types of parameters. It also does not return anything.
6. quit() Command :
Syntax: driver.quit();
It closes all the browser windows and tabs for a particular WebDriver session.
This command does not accept any parameters and not return anything.
etc…
