Automation revolutionizes testing efficiency and cost savings while ensuring smooth deployment
The challenges I faced while integrating Selenium HQ into my existing systems relate to historical data, which requires going back six years. I have to traverse if there were any challenges because I am sure if there were any, they must have been documented in our ALM documents. The multi-browser support of Selenium HQ impacts my testing process primarily since it is being used in Edge and Chrome browsers. It all depends on our customers. I haven't heard of any challenges with other browsers such as Opera or Mozilla Firefox, as these two browsers are what we primarily use. When we were doing these tests manually, it took several hours of effort, and those hours, when counted on the basis of person days, used to be maybe six or seven months of effort, which we can now do every day by running the pipeline. This has definitely saved a lot of money for us.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"If you have the right people on hand, it works very, very well."
"The product is fantastic."
"Selenium HQ has helped us through its automation capabilities, because testing manually takes a lot of time and money."
"You can build your own framework; I think that's the most powerful feature, and you can connect with a lot of other tools that use frameworks or keywords, which helps make it a stronger solution."
"Selenium HQ's most valuable feature is picking up and entering values from web pages."
"My customer previously validated every file and it would take almost 15-20 minutes for a document. They used to randomly select and test only 100 out of the thousands, maybe 85,000, files, to pick up sampling. Each file would take around 20 to 25 minutes, so we were not able to do it manually, but with the help of Selenium, we were able to test all the files in two days. It saves a lot of time."
"Nowadays we are using the solution to allow old solutions to run through it, so we don't need to go check functionalities created previously, as we just run the automation in one click, which saves a lot of time and allows us to focus on other things."
"I like that it is a robust and free open source, there is a lot of community support available, and there are a lot of developers using them."
"TestingWhiz is a low code, no code tool with integration facilities, such as with Jira, and can be used over the cloud."
 

Cons

"Coding skills are required to use Selenium, so it could be made more user-friendly for non-programmers."
"It would be better if it accommodated non-techy end-users. I think it's still a product for developers."
"There are some network issues, as the line is not very clear. I continuously see failures in threads when it is running in parallel."
"There is no particular documentation about it that can help me in a technical way."
"If the test scenarios are not subdivided correctly, it is very likely that maintenance will become very expensive and re-use is unlikely."
"When we upgrade the version, some features are missing. I want the product to include some AI capabilities."
"It would be better if we could use it without having the technical skills to run the scripting test."
"Selenium HQ could have better interaction with SAP products."
"Some features need to be implemented based on customer customization requests, which are currently not available."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is all free."
"Currently, Selenium HQ is free for customers."
"It is an open-source product, it is free for anyone to use."
"Selenium is open-source, so there are no setup costs associated with it."
"The product is open-source and free."
"It's an open-source tool that you can work with at any time without any cost."
"We are using Selenium open-source, so there is no need to purchase anything."
"Selenium HQ is a free, open-source solution."
