SELENIUM TESTING
Selenium testing is done for web based application. Selenium testing uses software called Selenium has an attached tool to record or to have a play back for testing without learning scripting language called SELENIUM   IDE. With the use of Selenese (a test domain specific language), one can write test in programming languages such as Java, C#, Groovy, Perl, PHP, Python and Ruby so that the test can be performed on the currently using(modern ) web browsers. Selenium can be installed on 
Windows, Linux and Macintosh platforms.

Components of Selenium

1. Selenium IDE: Selenium IDE stands for integrated development environment (IDE) for selenium tests. It is installed as a Firefox add-on and allows all the tests to do recording, editing, and debugging. The old name of it was Selenium Recorder. The founder of Selenium-IDE is Shinya Kasatani
Has the ability of recording automatically which can be edited manually. Selenium IDE is used for recording the script.
2. Selenium client API: Programming languages such as Java, C#, Ruby, Python acts as an alternative to write tests in Selenese.

3. Selenium Remote Control is a JAVA written server .Automated tests for a web application can be written in any programming language using RC.

4. Selenium WebDriver: Selenium RC is comes before Selenium WebDriver. The work of it is to receive commands (from Selenium using client API) and send them to a browser. WebDriver is associated with a facility of starting browser on its own, no need to have a special server as it is needed in Selenium 1 to run the test.

Many different browsers get an interface by Selenium 1 whereas developers can create or develop their Domain Specific Language using Selenium2. An example of already existing DSL is Watir project in Ruby language.

5. Selenium Grid: Selenium Grid is developed for running browsers on remote machines. It makes one of the servers as hub, to whom, test contact for accessing browser instances. With the help of selenium grid, it is possible to run selenium test on different remote machines parallel. This results in distributing the load across different machines.

  Scope of Selenium Testing: Today Selenium Testing is being used widely. It is the first choice of automated testers   for testing web based applications.

In Regression Testing: Difference between Automation And Manual Testing

By
The difference between an Automation Testing & Manual-Testing is a pillar of the Software testing, because the whole-testing is based on the Automation Testing and Manual Testing. In the project you can do both Automation Testing & Manual Testing & you can also do both Automation testing and Manual Testing simultaneously. Difference between Automation and Manual Testing Automation Testing Manual Testing The automation testing is a continuous component of the manual testing. This testing is an initiate of the testing, without of this testing we cannot start the automation testing. This takes less of time. This takes a lot of time. In the automation testing, we always test by the running the scripts. In the manual testing testers’re allowed to do the random for find the Bugs. In automation testing, it is done on the different on same time. The manual testing would be executes sequentially. ...

Want to know about Mobile Application Testing? Came to right place

By
What is Mobile Application Testing ? Mobile Application Testing is a phenomenon of testing functionality, usability and consistency of application software designed for mobiles. It is done in two ways: Automated and Manually. When you buy a new mobile, various applications came pre-installed and some you install as per your need from mobile software distribution platforms such as Google Play, Nokia Store etc. In the recent years, mobile devices had shown a rapid growth rate .  Factors that give an open challenge to Mobile application Testing : 1. Mobile devices models : Different models have different hardware configurations, input methods (some are QWERTY, some are touch while others are normal). 2. Several different operating systems (OS) : Market  is full of availability of different operating  systems  (   Android , IOS, BREW, BREWMP, Symbian,   Windows Phone , and   BlackBerry   (RIM)).Each operating system is unique in ...

INTRODUCTION TO SELENIUM TESTING

By
If you are interesting in software testing and desperately want to work in software testing profile then this post is surely for you, as we know that selenium testing is an important aspect of  software testing so you should go through this at least once. WHAT IS SELENIUM TESTING? SELENIUM is a tool for authoring tests without learning test scripting language like selenium IDE. Selenium is not just a tool but actually it is a cluster of independent tools. And selenium testing is a testing which is performed by using selenium tool. WHY WE USE SELENIUM TESTING I f we talk about the functioning and scenario of today's IT industries or companies then it is known to everyone that there is a mass movement towards automation testing. Not only this but the cluster of manual testing scenario  has also raised a great demand to make to manual testing automated by using various tools such as selenium.  There are numerous benefits which a software tester gets if he/she impleme...
