Week 1: - Introduction to Selenium IDE Week one provides high level overview of the entire course contents of Basic Selenium Using Ruby

Language. The course starts with installing Selenium IDE (and optionally Firefox) in Mozilla Firefox.

Creating simple test cases that search “Energy Efficient” key word in different domain’s search engines.

Using Selenium IDE demonstrates to create a Selenium Test Suite using the “Energy Efficient” test cases.

The above exercises “Energy Efficient” test case allows you to understand how Selenium is dependent

on the HTML structure of the application under test (AUT).

First week sets the stage by installing useful tools/plugins like Firebug, Dom Inspector, X-Path Checker,

XPather, Regular Expression Tester, and HTML Validator. These tools will allow you understand the

locator strategies, and how to aptly provide locators for different commands in Selenium. Optionally you

can also install 7-Zip for opening Zipped files, and Notepad++ which allows you to look out the source

codes of different programming languages.
