FAQ

What is Selenoid ?

Selenoid is a much better replacement for Selenium server.

So this is Selenoid written in NodeJS ?

This is more like selenoid manager, which helps you to setup and run your local Selenoid in ~15s having just NodeJS installed.

I'm using webdriver-manager and pretty happy with it, why do I need this package?

  1. This package using Selenoid instead of Selenium server - so all the performance and feature benefits of Selenoid are only here.
  2. You do not need Java installed.
  3. This project is ~10x time smaller (actually if count only ts/js files ~20x) than webdriver-manager (it's about ~200 lines of plain js code).

Okay, what exactly this 'manager' is doing ?

  1. Downloads latest browser binaries for your platform and arch.
  2. Downloads latest Selenoid binary for your platform and arch.
  3. Generate Selenoid config for these ^.

And all of that is just as simple as

selenoid-manager update
