selexe: A Python repository from ralhei

Overview

Selexe run tests generated by Selenium IDE, from the command line or side by side your application testsuite, using the Selenium Webdriver API.

Selenium IDE is an widely and easy-to-use application for recording, editing and running selenium tests, its main issue is it's tied to firefox and its API is based on the legacy Selenium core, in addition to a set of fairly broken Webdriver language-specific exporters.

This project aims full compatibility with test files generated by Selenium IDE, with especial care on mimicking its behavior, using Selenium 2 (Selenium Webdriver).
