  1. What are Selenium 4 advantages Selenium 4 comes with some excellent features such as enhanced selenium IDE, improved selenium grid architecture, relative locators etc. Apart from these, the most valuable component of Selenium 4 is W3C compliance, which helps in making tests less flaky and more stable. The most crucial change in the latest platform has been the deprecation of JSON Wire protocol. The latest version ensures that the application will be of utmost quality delivered as quickly as possible with the best of functionality and performance. In this article, you will get to know the advantages of Selenium 4. Following are the advantages of Selenium 4: Managing Windows tabs and browser has been simplified Documentation is streamlined and efficient The sheer value of W3C standardization The advent of relative locators 1.Managing Windows tabs and browser has been simplified: There are a number of reasons to open a new browser (or tab), so that a certain set of actions can be performed in the newly opened windows/tab. A new Web Driver object needs to be created in Selenium 3 and then can be switched to the new window (or tab) by using the WindowHandle, so that subsequent actions can be performed in the window (or tab). A new API newWindow is provided by Selenium 4 through which a new window (or tab) is created and thus can be automatically switched. Since, in the same session, the new tab or window is created, creating a new WebDriver object is avoided. Pass WindowType.TAB to newWindow(method), so that a new tab can be created in Selenium 4 and switched onto it. Pass WindowType.WINDOW to newWindow() method, so that a new Window can be created in Selenium 4 and switched onto it. 2.Documentation is streamlined and efficient: Selenium 4 comes with a content rich exhaustive documentation. The desired information can be easily reached because of seamless content layout in just a few clicks. All the aspects of W3C protocol, Selenium IDE, Selenium Grid are covered in detail in the Selenium 4 documentation. The new APIs can be understood in detail by the automation testers through the apt usage of Selenium 4 documentation. Relevant information pertaining to language binding, specific tool etc., can be obtained by developers and testers through the usage of documentation. 3.The advent of relative locators: Locating elements becomes easier through the Selenium 4 platform with the inclusion of relative locators. Specific web elements can be located by testers using intuitive terms used by users such as: • To right of • To left of • Below • Above The usage of relative locator methods is supported with TagName (in Selenium 4 Java) or with tag_name (in Selenium 4 Python). 4. The sheer value of W3C standardization: In the earlier versions of Selenium, communication between test code and web browser was possible with JSON Wire Protocol. This led to additional overhead, wherein API requests were encoded and decoded using the W3C protocol. This specific scenario is going to be changed in Selenium 4, as W3C standardization is adopted by WebDriver APIs. The W3C standard is followed by major browser drivers such as chromedriver, geckodriver etc. Communication can be done directly by the WebDriver in the selenium 4 with the web browser. JSON Wire protocol will be deprecated in Selenium 4. The native support for PhantomJS and Opera is removed in Selenium 4 as there is no longer development of their WebDriver implementations. The Opera browser is based out of Chromium. The test that needs to be implemented on Opera by users can opt for testing on the Chrome browser. CONCLUSION If you are looking forward to implementing selenium testing for your specific software development project, then do get connected with a premium software testing services company that will provide you a viable testing roadmap, that is in line with your project specific requirements. www.TestingXperts.com To know more about our services please email us at info@testingxperts.com USA | CANADA | UK | NETHERLANDS | INDIA | SINGAPORE | SOUTH AFRICA © 2022 TestingXperts, All Rights Reserved © www.testingxperts.com
