Selenium WebDriver is the core component of Selenium that communicates directly with web browsers to execute automation scripts. It simulates user interactions like clicking, typing, and navigation without manual effort. Locators are methods used to find web elements on a page. Common locator strategies include ID, name, XPath, CSS selectors, class name, and link text, each with different use cases and reliability trade-offs. Selenium supports multiple languages including Java, Python, JavaScript, C#, and Ruby, allowing teams to write automation in the language that best fits their existing development stack. Selenium can click buttons, enter text, navigate pages, handle dropdowns and alerts, perform drag and drop, take screenshots, switch between frames or windows, and validate element properties. Selenium enables automated regression testing across multiple browsers, improves test coverage, reduces manual effort for repetitive scenarios, and integrates with CI/CD pipelines to catch defects early in development.
