Selenium IDE

What is Selenium IDE?

Selenium IDE is an open-source integrated development environment for creating and managing Selenium tests. Designed as a Firefox extension, Selenium IDE enables users to record, edit, and debug their automated test scripts in the actual browser environment. With the full Selenium Core integrated, Selenium IDE facilitates quick and easy recording and playback of tests, streamlining the test creation process. Beyond a simple recording tool, Selenium IDE functions as a complete IDE, allowing users to edit scripts manually and leverage features like autocomplete and command reordering to optimize test development. The extensible nature of Selenium IDE supports customization through plugins, catering to a variety of testing styles and preferences
