When we discuss about a tool if we are not considering the cons then the discussion is not complete. Yes some of the advantages will come as disadvantages.
1. Open Source Tool difficult to get the right support.
2. Need to put great effort to design the right framework
3. Need the right knowledge to design and integrate different tools for the framework (Ex. You may need to integrate with Reporting tools, build, integration, other utils.
4. Record and Playback only available with FireFox browser
5. If you are planning to run our tests on multiple browsers then need special care for the object locators (We will discuss about this in the element locators section.)
Here I was not listing the selenium’s limitations to handle some situations in the application, instead I was listing the disadvantages as a testing tool. We may find some tricky situations where selenium is failing to handle our requests, in such situations its our responsibility to find out the solutions.
