Shared change lists are helpful, but poor scalability leads to problems with instability
The biggest problems with this solution have to do with scale. If the load is high then your request is put on hold for a second, and then you have to handle it. If you make a lot of requests then it is your problem. It would be very helpful if a queue was implemented to handle, for example, 100 requests at the same time. Any additional request would be put on hold and made to wait for a few seconds. Once the network and infrastructure are loaded to handle the next request, it would proceed.

Automation in testing processes sees improvement with multi-browser support and easier website interactions
Selenium HQ could improve by including a robust reporting framework, eliminating the need for external frameworks. The tool could simplify object identification, enabling users to generate XPaths without requiring detailed DOM understanding. Additionally, an automatic update mechanism for Selenium HQ would be beneficial, eliminating the need for manual downloads and updates of browser drivers when new versions are released.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The most valuable feature is the option to pull changes from others or make local changes in your own change list."
"The most valuable features of Selenium HQ are the automation of all UI tests, its open-source, reliability, and is supported by Google."
"In general, I would say that the API set is the most valuable feature."
"The grids, as well as the selectors, are the most valuable features."
"Selenium WebDriver and Selenium IDE are useful."
"The initial setup is straightforward. Deployment took about seven months."
"It is very stable."
"There are many useful features in Selenium that I like, and of the new features I particularly enjoy the Selenium Grid. With this, we can run many test cases in one go, and in one suite we can extract multiple results."
"I do recommend Selenium HQ to other organizations because we are in a business that is primarily based on B2B interface."
 

Cons

"It would be very helpful if a queue was implemented to handle, for example, 100 requests at the same time."
"I don't have that much experience with it, but I know that Selenium is more used for websites. It is not for testing desktop applications, which is a downside of it. It can support desktop applications more."
"The solution's UI path needs to be modernized."
"It would be better if we could use it without having the technical skills to run the scripting test."
"They should add more functionality to the solution."
"Selenium Grid set-up is bit complex."
"The most significant issue with Selenium is its difficulty in adapting to changing locators, which can hinder testing."
"Selenium has room for improvement as it does not support the tests and result-sharing in anything but a manual way."
"It would be better if it accommodated non-techy end-users. I think it's still a product for developers. That's why it's not common for end-users, and especially for RPA activities or tasks. It's hard to automate tasks for end-users. If it will be easier, more user-friendly, and so on, perhaps it can be more interesting for this kind of user."
