SAN FRANCISCO–(BUSINESS WIRE)– BrowserStack, ‘s werelds toonaangevende software testplatform, heeft vandaag ondersteuning aangekondigd voor Selenium 4 op BrowserStack Automate, het automatisering testproduct. Selenium 4, uitgebracht in oktober 2021, wordt geleverd met een groot aantal nieuwe functies, die BrowserStack Automate out-of-the-box ondersteunt (geen speciale installatie of configuratie vereist).

“Het BrowserStack Open Source Program Team heeft de afgelopen twee jaar samengewerkt met het Selenium-project en uitgebreid bijgedragen aan Selenium 4, zoals het werken aan de herschrijving van Selenium Grid”, zegt David Burns, hoofd Open Source bij BrowserStack en Core Contributor bij Selenium. “We hebben ook code bijgedragen aan belangrijke onderdelen zoals de Observability-functies, hebben samengewerkt aan ondersteunde talen in Selenium Client-bindingen en onze stagiaires hebben de eerste versie van de nieuwe Selenium Grid UI gebouwd en tegelijkertijd de GraphQL-ondersteuning verbeterd.”

BrowserStack Announces Full Support for Selenium 4

SAN FRANCISCO–(BUSINESS WIRE)– BrowserStack, the world’s leading software testing platform, today announced support for Selenium 4 on BrowserStack Automate, its automation testing product. Released in October 2021, Selenium 4 comes with a host of new features, which BrowserStack Automate supports out-of-the-box (no special installation or configuration required).

“The BrowserStack Open Source Program Team has collaborated with the Selenium project and contributed extensively to Selenium 4 over the last two years, such as working on Selenium Grid rewrite,” said David Burns, Head of Open Source at BrowserStack and Core Contributor to Selenium. “We also contributed code to key parts like the Observability features, collaborated on supported languages in Selenium Client bindings, and our interns built the first version of the new Selenium Grid UI while improving the GraphQL support.”

One of the most exciting updates is the introduction of ‘relative locators’, which allows developers to locate page elements based on their relative location to the other, particularly helpful when dealing with complex DOM structures. In addition, with support for its BiDi APIs, developers can monitor browser console logs, listen to JS Exceptions and intercept, validate or modify network requests through the NetworkInterceptor.

“The capabilities of Selenium 4 move beyond just browser functionality. Automate’s support for all new features of Selenium 4 ensures users get maximum value out of our platform,” said Nakul Aggarwal, Co-founder, and CTO of BrowserStack. “We’re committed to working closely with and giving back to the open source community.”
