This document provides an overview of Selenium commands for automating tests against different browsers. It lists common locator strategies used to locate elements, including by class name, CSS selector, ID, link text, partial link text, name, tag name, and XPath. It then describes commonly used Selenium commands for initializing a driver, navigating to URLs, validating page titles, closing the browser, and more. Explicit and implicit wait commands are also summarized for interacting with elements on a page.

WebDriver :- It’s an Automation Framework that allows to execute
Tests against different browsers. We can use a programming language
for creating Test Scripts.
LOCATORS :- Locators Used to locate correct GUI elements for
Selenium Automation Scripts. GUI Elements Form Mantis Bug Tracking
Tool are used in examples to locate through Locators.
TestNG :- It overcomes limitations of Junit. Annotations are easier to
understand, Test Cases can be grouped more easily & Paraller testing is
possible.
