Selenium

I have drastically fallen behind on the link reporting, but not the collecting, so this week’s Smattering will be multi-part. The ‘big’ news falls for this edition is two fold - We’re having a conference! Selenium Conference 2011 is April 4 – 6, 2011 in San Francisco. See the site for more information. (And I [...]

We recently released the first of the betas for Selenium 2. It’s available for Java, C# and Ruby. If you’ve been holding off trying Selenium 2 because of the alpha label, then the biggest improvement you’ll see is with the new WebDriver APIs, but there’s a lot more! A promise of relatively stable APIs For [...]

As mentioned in Simon’s Going Atomic: Why? and Going Atomic: How, part of the merging of Selenium and WebDriver is to share common code between the two. And as of the 1.0.10 release of Selenium IDE, this merged code, ‘atoms’ is now included. Some early users of this release are noticing that this the atom [...]

(If I wasn’t still recovering from a cold there would be something witty here.) We’ll start this week with a cartoon So I know I have linked to playing pacman with se 2, but here is a site that explains the ghost behavior. If Google implemented the algorithms properly-ish, then this should be the ticket [...]

Great news! Thanks to the initiative of our friends at Sauce Labs, we’re finally ready to host the first-ever Selenium Conference. We’re still working out a lot of the details, but so far we’ve decided this first conference will be sometime in April and hosted in San Francisco. In order to figure out the rest [...]

We’ll start this week with the official announcement of ‘Selenium 1.0 Testing Tools: Beginner’s Guide’ being available. Congrats David! (Still waiting for my copy…) There is now a DZone ‘refcard’ for Selenium 2. Of course, the reason Se2 is alpha is the API isn’t done with at least one major addition still left so it [...]

…and here’s the links! Henrik Skupin was one of the speakers at the London Selenium Meetup and has written about the night and his talk Speaking of which, videos of the talks are now up Part of good automation is knowing how to code. So here are some sites that crossed my path this week [...]

For those people paying attention to the goings-on in the Selenium world, yes, I am skipping something major until some of the details are worked out and announced. Until then, here are the links I accrued over the week. Selenium uses Bamboo for its CI infrastructure. This week saw an upgrade to the latest version [...]

The big news for last week was that I released Se-IDE 1.0.8 to very little fanfare. 1.0.9 should be a week or two and much more important a release. Cheesecake! is isn’t nearly as impractical as Pacman, but still adds to the Se2 example bucket. The London Se Meetup stuff from last week are starting [...]

I’ve missed a couple weeks due to travel and a complete system lock which meant I lost all the links I had open but not saved. So these are the ones I have recovered. I have written a series of posts on how to do parallel execution of tests in JUnit 4 up on the [...]
