Selenium: Detailed Overview & Metrics
Selenium WebDriver is a powerful automation tool for controlling web browsers through code. It allows developers to automate web interactions, such as clicking buttons, filling forms, and navigating through web pages. Selenium WebDriver supports multiple programming languages and browsers, making it a versatile choice for web testing and automation.
Compared to alternatives like Puppeteer, Selenium WebDriver has a longer history and broader community support. However, Selenium WebDriver can be more complex to set up and maintain due to its reliance on browser drivers. It is actively maintained and widely used in the industry for web testing purposes.
