About 10 years ago we used Selenium for testing our portal applications. The following advantages and disadvantages rested in mind:
Advantages: It was possible to record and replay tests via capture-replay and without scripting. Also complicated scenarios were testable. Tests could be copied and via editing new data sets could be included. In case of small adjustments within the program sequence, we could add the new partial sequences via clever copy/paste to our existing test.
Disadvantages: Unfortunately you can only repeat the tests with the same set of test data that was used for the recording. Generally die tests had to be recorded again. We had performance problems during test execution. We could only run the tests in slow mode (The question remained open whether this was depending on our infrastructure or our own application). After two mayor versions we abandoned Selenium due to this high maintenance effort.
In 2010 one of our colleagues mentioned QF-Test. We then could test our portal applications comfortably. We test also our Java basted inventory management system with QF-Test. Since then we can also execute consistent tests between the inventory management system and the portal applications. Actually we are considering applying QF-Test also for our via typo3 updated website.
