Is Selenium with Python easy?

How Python is used in Selenium?

What is Selenium and what are its uses? Let's first have a look at what is Python and how it works. What is Python? Python is an open source, dynamic programming language. Its main purpose is to create fast and concise code. This programming language is used as a client application for web server requests. Most of the Selenium's functionalities are coded in Python.

How does Selenium work? Selenium basically works by mimicking how a human would perform certain actions on a web browser. How does Selenium help testers? It is a tool used to record and replay actions on a website. It is used to automate actions such as: Screenshots. Recordings. Automation. The way it works is that it records the actions you make and then you replay them back on the test you're working on. In the following example, we would start recording in an application with a web interface. This allows us to record mouse clicks, keystrokes, etc. If we want to stop recording we can simply type stop recording.

To play back the recording, we just press play. To cancel playing the recording, we can simply press stop recording.

If you do not have a browser ready to record the actions, you can use the recorder to record directly from your testing environment. You can even do this recording yourself without the need of the remote debugger. You can even export the recording to other formats such as a video file.

When you use the recorder, you will see an icon on the top right corner of your window. Clicking on this icon will bring up a menu where you can choose to pause recording or quit recording.

Recording is done using the Record button. You can now replay the recording by clicking on the play button. Once again, if you want to cancel recording you can just click on the stop button. You can also save the recording by clicking on the export button. The exported recording can be imported to other applications like a video or an image file. You can even set the starting point of the recording by changing the starting time and the end time in the Settings menu. All recorded actions can be saved in the profile. You can access the saved actions using the File menu.
