Selenium: to 2.0 and Beyond!
Published November 18th, 2009 Under Open Source Tools | Leave a Comment
There’s a lot in common between Selenium and WebDriver. They’re both fantastic tools for automated testing of web apps, but they do their thing in radically different ways. As keen followers of the projects, you may have heard of the plan to merge these projects. What does this mean? And, perhaps more importantly, why should you care? We’ll explain how Selenium and WebDriver work, then look to the future and explain what Selenium 2.0 will be. We’ll tell you what we plan to do, how we plan to do it. We’ll do this by taking a Selenium1.0 script and migrate it into the future of 2.0. Wish us luck!

Among them is the need for better testing tools. The presenter will discuss some pros and cons of a few of the more popular web application testing tools: JSUnit, HtmlUnit, and Selenium. In addition presenter will present Envjs as a headless option to JSUnit. An example app written in Ext JS and Grails will provide a demo.
