# Selenium specialists for your dedicated team.

Selenium is the long-established browser automation framework and the basis of the W3C WebDriver standard. It drives real browsers through the same protocol every major browser implements, with bindings for Java, Python, C#, JavaScript and Ruby.

## Where Selenium fits in a long-term product team.

Selenium's lasting advantage is that it is a standard, supported across every major browser vendor. WebDriver is implemented by the browser vendors themselves, bindings exist for every significant language, and a suite written against it is not dependent on one company continuing to maintain a tool. On an estate expected to run for a decade that is a real consideration.

The trade-off is that it gives you less. No auto-waiting, so synchronisation is the test author's responsibility and badly written waits are the leading cause of flaky Selenium suites. No built-in tracing, so a CI failure has to be reproduced to be understood. Modern frameworks removed these problems; Selenium expects you to solve them.

## What your dedicated team does with Selenium.

Most Selenium estates we inherit are large, slow and partially trusted, with a set of tests everyone knows to ignore. The productive first step is working out which tests are meaningful, before migrating anything to something newer.

That assessment is test-strategy work, and it is where a new team should start. How scope is agreed before anything is rewritten is described in how an assignment runs.

## Common Selenium use cases.

* Maintaining a large existing suite Stabilising what is there and retiring what is not trusted, before considering a migration.
* Language flexibility across teams Tests in the same language as the application, which is what keeps them maintained.
* Grid execution across environments Distributed runs across browser and OS combinations, including hardware a cloud service does not offer.

## Adding Selenium skills to your team.

Selenium work sits with [outsource qa testing](https://azendo.co/services/dedicated-qa-and-testing-team/), starting from an assessment of which tests carry signal.
