Performance evaluation of web based automation testing tools

In today's 21st century era countless software applications are written as a web based application which runs in a web browsers. With new technologies and commercialization of I.T. sector, the web based system has undergoes frequent and rapid changes. Today Softwares are coded as a web based application, which help to access data from any part of the globe. Even the economic relevance of web based enhances the control and quality of software. The quality assurance of any system depends on its test. But to do manually testing in most of the cases is time consuming, expensive and hectic. For the better business purpose and to save time and money automation testing is required. There are variety of tools are available in the market for this. One of the best known tool is selenium suite which is a combination of different automation testing tool. In this paper we will discuss about the selenium suite. It provides testers with different framework for different test cases. The main objective of this paper is to find the best tool in selenium suite and then compare it with some other tool for same task. For this purpose, performance evaluation is done on the basis of some criteria.
