We're thinking of switching to webdriver
From MozillaWiki
This page is based on the mozwebqa email conversation: selenium 2 + WebQA
Reasons to switch to webdriver:
- selenium does not support hover, but the addons impala redesign will be making heavy usage of hover
- selenium does not support mobile testing, webdriver does
Reasons why we've held back from switching to webdriver:
- grid performance issues (now resolved...enough)
- we use sizzle locators and will have to switch these to xpath before we can change our api
- no support for native events on mac (key presses, click, etc.)
