Selenium IDE Languages Support

In this tutorial, we will learn about the different programming languages supported by Selenium IDE.

Selenium IDE (Integrated Development Environment) is a record-and-playback tool for automating browser interactions. It’s mainly used for testing web applications without needing to write a lot of code.

Programming languages are supported through Selenium RC drivers, which are libraries made for each programming language that expose commands from the Selenium API natively in the form of methods/functions.

Native Format

  • Selenese → The default language of Selenium IDE (commands like open, click, type, etc.)

Languages Support

Selenium IDE supports multiple export languages (for generating runnable test scripts) but the actual IDE itself runs tests in its own Selenese command format.

Selenese is the language of Selenium IDE, consisting of keywords (commands) that tell the browser what to do.

Selenium IDE allows you to export recorded tests into different programming languages and frameworks so that they can be executed in Selenium WebDriver.

Some of the  programming languages and frameworks are as follows::

  • Java

    • JUnit

    • TestNG

  • C#

    • NUnit

    • MSTest

  • Python

    • unittest framework

  • Ruby

    • Test::Unit

  • JavaScript

    • Mocha (with Node.js and Selenium WebDriver)
