Still now we learn lots of thing in Selenium WebDriver and manage everything with our self. But now in open source era some framework is already in market which makes our life more simple, like Graphene.
Though Drone already integrate Selenium Webdriver within it, but Graphene makes our life more easy to deals with Selenium WebDriver.
Actually Arquillian is top on Drone and Graphene .
So In brief
Arquillian : It is a testing framework, simply an extension to JUnit/TestNG frameworks.
Drone : Drone takes care of Selenium WebDriver instance creation and configuration.
Graphene : It is a wrapper around Selenium WebDriver with utilities class.
Arquillian can run in 2 different ways
We will know in later posts how to configure and learn in details about it for Standalone/Client mode.

- Container : It is mainly used for integration testing from development perspective. It maintains the container state and deployed the whole application then run this application with in a container.
- Standalone/Client : It is mainly used for automation of functional testing. Here application is not deployed with in a container.
We will know in later posts how to configure and learn in details about it for Standalone/Client mode.

ReplyDeleteThe biggest change in Selenium recently has been the inclusion of the WebDriver API. Driving a browser natively as a user would either locally or on a remote machine using the Selenium Server it marks a leap forward in terms of browser automation.
Selenium WebDriver fits in the same role as RC did, and has incorporated the original 1.x bindings. It refers to both the language bindings and the implementations of the individual browser controlling code. This is commonly referred to as just "WebDriver" or sometimes as Selenium 2.
