Selenium - and similar assembled testing frameworks - have been the de facto web application testing standard for nearly two decades. It’s a tool that software development teams have relied on to build and execute automated tests that help prevent bugs from being released into production. Although Selenium is still used today, software development has evolved and so have quality engineering strategies and testing tools.
It’s no great revelation that development timelines have accelerated, and applications have grown more complex. Software teams who are using Selenium in today’s fast-paced world are struggling with test reliability issues, and trying to keep up with the maintenance of all their tests and packages. While there are still many use-cases where Selenium is the right tool for the job, increasingly teams are adopting alternatives like mabl’s low-code test automation solution.
No complex setup, no libraries - with mabl anyone can simply create and run automated tests by clicking through their application the same way customers do.
With mabl, test creation and maintenance does not require advanced engineering knowledge. Test automation is accessible to everyone on your team.
Testers no longer have to struggle with brittle tests. As your application evolves, mabl improves reliability by automatically healing tests along with it.
mabl users get detailed test results that can be shared easily, giving quality and dev teams the visibility they need for quick and efficient bug resolution.
Switching to mabl doesn’t necessarily mean starting over. Import your Selenium tests directly into mabl and immediately benefit from low-code test automation.
