Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Atlassian, Nutanix and others in Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) Suites."The most valuable feature is code coverage."
"It really helps developers execute scenarios through DTP and share reports/results across the teams."
"It is very stable."
"It is compatible with and supports multiple languages, such as Java and Python. It is open source, and it is widely used."
"Selenuim helps us during testing. We are able to reduce the number and frequency of manual efforts by using scripts."
"It's not too complicated to implement."
"It is programming language agnostic, you can write tests in most currently used languages."
"It is a scalable solution."
"The most valuable feature of Selenium HQ is the ability to configure a lot of automated processes."
"The main characteristic that is useful is that the tool is completely free."
"Parallel execution: It would help it multiple executions could be done at the same time."
"The solution's speed has room for improvement."
"I would like to see automatic logs generated."
"To simplify the development process, everyone needs to do a Selenium Framework to acquire the web application functions and features from Selenium methods."
"I would like to see XPath made more reliable so that it can be used in all browsers."
"The login could be improved, to obviate the need for relying on another one for integration with Selenium HQ"
"The solution is open-source, so everyone relies on the community to assist with troubleshooting and information sharing. If there's a complex issue no one has faced, it may take a while to solve the problem."
"Selenium has been giving us failures sometimes. It is not working one hundred percent of the time when we are creating elements. They need to improve the stability of the solution."
"We use X path for our selectors, and sometimes, it is difficult to create locators for elements. It is very time-consuming because they're embedded deeply. A lot of that comes from the way that you architect your page. If devs are putting the IDs on their elements, it is great, and it allows you to get those elements super fast, but that's not necessarily the case. So, Selenium should be able to get your elements a lot quicker. Currently, it is time-consuming to get your selectors, locate your locators, and get to the elements."
"There is no good tool to find the Xpath. They should provide a good tool to find Xpath for dynamic elements and integrate API (REST/ SOAP) testing support."
