Hi,

I think there is correction needed in below statement,”Firefox and HTML Unit are the only browsers that cannot be automated directly”

It should be “Firefox and HTML Unit are the only browsers that can be automated directly”

Firefox and HTML Unit are the only browsers that “cannot” be automated directly.

Another great resource 🙂

I found an error on the page which you might consider fixing “Firefox and HTML Unit are the only browsers that ‘cannot’ be automated directly.” needs to read “Firefox and HTML Unit are the only browsers that ‘can’ be automated directly.”

Thank you for the appreciation.
For installation webDriver with C#, you can download the client specific to C# from Selenium’s official download page. You can refer to one of the images in this tutorial for the same.

Once the download is completed, you can configure the client libraries within your Visual Studio.

Python installation guide would be so much useful. Almost everyone uses Selenium WebDriver with Python since it is one of the easiest languages for testers to learn. Java is a disaster :/

JDK= java development kit, you need this to write programs in java.
Eclipse = it’s an IDE, it makes it easy for you to write programs.

So JDK is necessary for you to run java programs, the eclipse will make your work easy when you write programs.

Hello,
First of all heartiest congratulations and appreciation for doing this commendable job of training students with each and every possible details.
I have a question, I see that your project structure has a “Referenced Libraries” which I believe contains all the External Jars we pulled from selenium-java-2.41.0. But mine are all listed in the project tree itself. I was wondering how can I create one “Referenced Libraries” like you to contain all of them so that it looks much cleaner.
