Selenium Testing for Python

Selenium is an open source and  portable tool for testing web applications. It provides a playback tool for authoring functional tests without the need to learn a test scripting language (Selenium IDE). It also provides a test domain specific language (Selenese) to write tests in a number of popular programming languages. The languages includes C#, Java, Perl, PHP, Python, Ruby and also Scala. The tests can then run against most modern web browsers. Selenium runs on Window, Linux and also mac-OS. It is an open source software released under the Apache License 2.0. In this blog we discuss in brief about Selenium Testing for Python.
