Selenium-Grid allows you run Selenium tests on different machines, running various operating systems, against different browsers in parallel. It allows for running your tests in a distributed test execution environment.

Selenium-Grid 2.0 is the latest release. It is quite different from version 1 of Selenium-Grid. In 2.0 Selenium-Grid was merged with the Selenium-RC server. Now, you only need to download a single .jar file to get the remote Selenium-RC-Server and Selenium-Grid all in one package.

Grid allows you to :

  • scale by distributing tests on several machines (parallel execution )
  • manage multiple environments from a central point, making it easy to run the tests against a vast combination of browsers / OS.
  • minimize the maintenance time for the grid by allowing you to implement custom hooks to leverage virtual infrastructure for instance.
