Objectives

The primary objectives of Selenium test automation are to ensure software quality and reliability through automated testing of web applications. Here are the key objectives:
✅ Increase Test Coverage: Automate repetitive and complex test cases across multiple browsers and platforms.
✅ Improve Accuracy: Reduce human error by consistently executing the same tests with precise outcomes.
✅ Save Time and Effort: Run large test suites faster than manual testing.
✅ Enhance Test Reusability: Create modular, reusable test scripts that can be easily maintained and scaled.
✅ Enable Continuous Testing: Integrate with CI/CD pipelines (like Jenkins or GitHub Actions).
✅ Support Cross-Browser Testing: Ensure the application works correctly across different browsers.
✅ Reduce Testing Costs: Over time, automation reduces the need for manual testers on repetitive tasks.
✅ Enable Parallel Execution: Run tests concurrently on multiple environments or machines to speed up execution time.
