Both Selenium and Appium are open source testing frameworks. By supporting a wide range of browsers, operating systems, and programming languages, Selenium decreases the complexity of automated web application testing. Appium has tools that facilitate automated testing of native, mobile web, and hybrid apps.

What is selenium?

Selenium is a browser automation tool. That's all! It is entirely up to you what you do with that power. It is primarily used to automate web applications for testing purposes, but it is not limited to that. Web-based administration tasks that are tedious can (and should!) be automated as well.

Selenium Webdriver

Selenium WebDriver, which was created as a collection of open-source APIs, works with a variety of browsers including Firefox, Safari, Chrome, and Internet Explorer. Apart from its sibling in the Selenium family, Selenium RC, WebDriver communicates directly with browsers without the use of JavaScript.

No need to wait for web pages to load because WebDriver supports the headless HtmlUnit browser, which speeds up the test execution cycle.

selenium IDE:

Selenium IDE is a tool for creating and editing Selenium test cases for web applications. Except for adding the extension of the tester's specific browser, Selenium IDE is suitable for even novice programmers and requires no specific setup step to get started.

The development environment that allows testers to transfer test cases to various programming languages, giving them greater flexibility in test execution.
