Selenium IDE is a Firefox add-on that allows users to record, edit, and debug automated tests of interactions with a browser. It allows for easy recording and playback of test steps as well as features like intelligent field selection, autocomplete commands, debugging tools, and the ability to save and run test suites to ensure full browser functionality. The tutorial demonstrates how to create a simple login test with Selenium IDE.

Selenium IDE Performs automated testing
Selenium, itself Selenium is a suite of tools used to automate browsers for testing and other tasks. Selenium runs in many browsers and operating systems, and can be controlled by many programming languages and testing frameworks. http://seleniumhq.org/about/platforms.jsp
The part I'm going to focus on is Selenium IDE which is a Firefox add-on that performs simple record-and-playback of interactions with the browser.
This complete IDE allows you to record, edit, and debug tests. You can then run the perfected tests repeatedly, or a series of tests. More Features: Easy record and playback Intelligent field selection will use IDs, names, or XPath as needed Autocomplete for all common Selenium commands Walk through tests Debug and set breakpoints Save tests as HTML, Ruby scripts, or any other format Support for Selenium user-extensions.js file Option to automatically assert the title of every page Easy customization through plugins
A good time to use it would be...
As an example to start, I am going to create a simple test of logging in. Step 1: Click record button
Step 2: Perform actions normally Navigate to site Login Success!
You can also edit the command, target, and value fields if they weren't captured correctly, but most of the time we won't have to use too many manual commands.
An easy way to confirm you're at the place you expect is to add a verify TextPresent command.
Selenium IDE
You can create multiple tests, such as login, add single award, and then sign out-- all automated! This is known as a test suite.
Make sure the tests are in order, then click run all tests. If all goes smoothly, everything will appear green! The idea is to build large test suites to make sure everything still works. We will save test suites in project repository.
Install the add-on: http://seleniumhq.org/download/ Links to tutorials I used: http://www.codediesel.com/php/selenium- ide-tutorial-part-1/ http://www.codediesel.com/php/selenium- ide-tutorial-part-2/
There is lots more to it (that I don't understand)... And you might have questions (that I don't have answers to)... But we will figure out as we go what it is most useful for (or you can experiment further on your own)
