Selenium 0.8 Released

Selenium 0.8 Released:

Version 0.8 of the web application functional testing tool Selenium has been released.

Jeff Xiong explaing the new features…

(Via Ajaxian Blog.)

I’m especially excited about this release because of the implications with our HostedQA and AutoQ products. The reason is because I started the initial work on the multiWindow mode (though, admittedly, the rest of the Selenium dev team was absolutely required to make it finally work properly) for the very purpose of providing a frameless testing infrastructure for HostedQA.

We’ve actually been using this multiWindow/frameless mode in our products for a while in our products. The result is that instead of seeing your application inside of an iframe, your app runs in its own window, more accurately reflecting the real world usage.

You can see some example screenshots of what it looks like by checking out some of our opensource projects reports.
