The platform is incredibly flexible, and functional, and is able to support a variety of browsers compared to other options.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>What is Selenium?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Selenium is a suite of programs to create a multitude of testing solutions for businesses. It is an open-source platform able to be used with different types of browsers and applications. When writing test scripts for Selenium, the Charter Global team is able to choose from a variety of programming languages including Python, Java, C#, and more.<\/p>\n<h3>Why Do We Need Automation Testing?<\/h3>\n<p>We want to test, re-test, and test some more before ever completing the project. If even one element is off on part of the code, it could mean thousands of dollars to fix the error. With automation testing that Selenium offers, Charter Global can deliver solutions faster, more affordably, improve efficiencies, reduce errors, and increase productivity.<\/p>\n<h3>How Does Selenium Beat Out Other Options?<\/h3>\n<p>We believe it easily reigns supreme across other <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/charterglobal.com\/services\/automation-testing-services\/\">automation testing tools<\/a><\/strong>. Selenium supports many programming languages and is compatible with multiple mainstream browsers, which lets the Charter Global team know whether a solution will work seamlessly across a variety of interfaces, especially knowing that people often go back and forth between browsers.<\/p>\n<p>Selenium is very cost-effective, as it is an <a href=\"https:\/\/charterglobal.com\/services\/open-source-software-solutions\/\"><strong>Open-Source tool<\/strong><\/a>, making it one of our top recommendations to businesses looking to stick to a budget while making an impact on how they run their organization. Testing scripts written for Selenium can also be reused and are easily integrated with third-party applications, making it a better choice than most automation testing options.<\/p>\n<h3>Why Does Charter Global Use Selenium?<\/h3>\n<p>Out of the automation testing tools available, we believe Selenium is the best choice for the best price. In other words, it gives you the \u201cbiggest bang for the buck\u201d. It is often a low-cost option for our clients and it\u2019s able to test everything across a variety of programming languages, browsers, frameworks, integrations, and more, making it extremely versatile in its use.<\/p>\n<p>We have assisted many clients to test their applications using Selenium.
