Protractor is an end-to-end testing framework specifically designed for Angular and AngularJS applications. It allows developers to automate interactions with their web applications, simulate user actions, and run tests in real browsers. Protractor is built on top of WebDriverJS and uses Jasmine or Mocha for test syntax, making it easy to write and maintain test scripts.

Compared to other testing frameworks like Selenium, Protractor provides built-in support for Angular-specific elements like ng-model and ng-bind, making it ideal for testing Angular applications. Protractor is actively maintained and regularly updated to support the latest versions of Angular, ensuring compatibility and reliability for testing Angular projects.
