Hello, back in the curse, I want in this visual lesson, talk a little bit about the two that we will use to assist us in the process of automating functional tests. And it's hurt the selenium, I use it this much because it has everything to do with the history of selenium to which you will know thrown off the next slide. What is Selenium? And how did sidin come about? Selenium in fact, is a suite consistent for the for tools that save to automated tests offer web applications and better then the Selenium ID is a rapidly two which means you will be able to create and run the test scripts. Besides we have the remote control, which is the first project of selenium and it's a local server.
Any dependents that reproduce The execution of your tests. We also had the Web API driver, which is actually the second version of remote control. However, you will be able to use this seamlessly into a programming language that you are accustomed to program. And the Lastly, we have degreed which is a feature of remote control for running tests on several connected machines in our network. popularly now, as a distributed testing, referring to the history of selenium, the tester Jason Hawkins in media 2004 was testing an application internal of the company to works when he realized that he could say so improve your time in the manual testing activity that we know is an activity that takes a lot of time and a lot of effort. So for this, he decided to create a JavaScript library that was the interaction with the browser.
And it was this library that he decided to name it Selenium. And yet, at the time, a floater not to test for severo testers, who were also no longer support and stay there dependent off all their test tools. Such as quick test. We accept h2 from the mercury company. And that was very expensive. And by the cubicles in the periodic table, selenium is the antidote to America.
There is the reason for the name because the cell no more roles for this purposed to see. So be better than the comparing tools, mainly these which was from the mercury company in there in Portuguese means mercury. So, Jason hoagies in a very unusual way, but his name in there demonstrating a certain proposition. That is why it's called a synonym. Well, in the next class, I will talk about the why uses Selenium. Why should we choose Selenium as the main test automation solution?
Thanks again for the attention and until soon
