Why Do Selenium Cloud Testing?
Selenium is driven by the W3C compliant WebDriver protocol that serves as the main interface. Selenium is also the base for many leading test automation frameworks including Junit, TestNG, WebDriver.IO, Nightwatch, Karma, and many more. Selenium releases frequently and is open source. Selenium is the leading test automation framework for web apps. With Selenium, teams can create robust browser-based regression testing automation scripts using a wide range of development languages, including:
Java
Java Script
C#
Python
Perl
Ruby
Selenium Integration With Perfecto
Perfecto is fully compliant with the Selenium framework. The Selenium integration allows customers to run their Selenium test automation scripts on real browsers in the Perfecto-secured and enterprise-grade testing cloud.
Run Selenium cloud testing in any supported language and any supported test framework. Execute at unlimited scale from within your IDE, your CI, or command line.
How to Integrate Selenium and Perfecto
Connecting your Selenium code to the Perfecto cloud is easy and standard. Simply configure the desired capabilities parameters to set up your execution targets and launch your scripts.
DesiredCapabilities capabilities = new DesiredCapabilities("", "", Platform.ANY);
capabilities.setCapability("platformName", "Windows");
capabilities.setCapability("platformVersion", "10");
capabilities.setCapability("browserName", "Chrome");
capabilities.setCapability("browserVersion", "75");
capabilities.setCapability("location", "EU Frankfurt");
capabilities.setCapability("resolution", "1024x768");Upon configuring your desktop browser, you’ll get access to a new, clean, and secure desktop browser.

Key Features With Perfecto
Open & Integrated
Perfecto integrates with Selenium and various Selenium-based test automation frameworks. Perfecto enables customers to execute their tests from within IDEs, CI servers, and other environments.
Customers get instant access to a large-scale Selenium grid in the cloud with zero setup or maintenance required.
Fastest Execution
Advanced architecture guarantees fast and reliable execution of large test suites across multiple browsers and geographies.
Advanced Reporting & Analytics
Advanced AI-driven reporting and analytics expedite feedback loops, provide debugging artifacts, and ensure high-quality web apps. Dashboards with cross-platform reporting for responsive web testing provide quality visibility.
Upon each Selenium test execution, you can leverage Perfecto’s smart analytics and use heatmaps to view cross-platform health at a high level. Dig deeper with single test reports that provide AI-driven root cause analysis of the failure. If the execution was triggered from a CI server like Jenkins, you can view the entire CI history with job and branch-level reports.
