Selenium is a web testing framework that allows testing in any browser. It provides several tools, including Selenium IDE for recording and playing back tests in Firefox, Selenium Core for running tests directly in browsers, and Selenium Remote Control (RC) for running tests on multiple browsers on different machines using various programming languages. Selenium Grid allows running multiple Selenium RC servers in parallel to distribute tests across different machines.

2. selenium ooh so what is this? in simple terms, selenium is a web testing framework that runs in any browser, suited for: functional testing browser compatibility testing

3. keep it simple, or dig deep just want to try it simplicity – easy to use the selenium IDE to create a single or a complete suite of tests. want to know more about it complete solution - go deep inside selenium to know selenium remote control & grid

4. using selenium tests can be written as HTML markup. test cases can be written in a number of popular programming languages (Java, .NET, Perl, Python and Ruby) it can be run directly in most modern web browsers. selenium can be deployed on windows, linux, and mac.

5. selenium projects selenium IDE selenium core selenium RC selenium grid

6. selenium IDE selenium IDE is a firefox add-on that makes it easy to record and playback tests in firefox.

7. selenium core selenium core tests run directly in a browser , just as real users do . need to copy selenium Core & tests directly into application web server

8. selenium RC selenium remote control is a system that allows to simulate web browsers locally using almost any programming language and testing framework

9. the way RC works http://selenium-rc.openqa.org/

10. selenium grid selenium grid allows several selenium remote control servers to be accessed in parallel by selenium grid server.

11. this is the way how grid works? http://selenium-grid.openqa.org/

12. Which tool I’ll use ?? * = experimental support is available in Selenium RC ** = theoretically possible, but not currently implemented Selenium IDE Selenium Remote Control Selenium Core Browser support Firefox Only Many All requires remote Installation No No Yes supports HTTPS/SSL Yes Yes* Yes supports multiple domains Yes Yes* No requires java No Yes No saves test results to disk No** Yes No language support Selenese Only Many Selenese Only

13. demo

14. tell me how I can use selenium IDE? install selenium as a firefox plug-in http://selenium-ide.openqa.org/download.jsp in firefox browser go to tools > selenium IDE

15. new face of IDE 1.0 beta 2

16. tell me about regression selenium ide ant cruise control

17. projects in cruise control

18. Embedded result file from RC

19. references: selenium main site http://selenium.openqa.org support browser, OS, programming language, testing frameworks can be found here http://selenium.openqa.org/about/platforms.html#browsers command to run RC java -jar selenium-server.jar -htmlSuite "*firefox" "http://www.somewhereinads.net" "E:\selenium-remote-control-1.0-beta-1\ads\regression-test\swiad-live\trunk\suite.html" "E:\selenium-remote-control-1.0-beta-1\ads\results.html" for more help use openqa froum

20. thanks for your patience any question ?? just through on me 
