Selenium Testing Framework Practice Exam

The Selenium Testing Framework refers to the software application which is used to conduct automation testing of applications for web or mobile. Selenium is open-software to automate the testing of web applications by simulating user actions in a web browser of clicking, data entry, etc. It has support for major programming languages of Java, Python, C#, and Ruby. It enables regression testing, functional testing, and load testing of web applications with feature of integrating with other CI/CD tools.
