  3. Installation of SIDE • Point browser at Selenium IDE installation page on OpenQA web site. • Select the download link for 1.0 Beta 1. • If nothing happens, then select the Edit Options button just above the page.

  6. Example: Link-Checking • Point Firefox browser at SUT, De Anza A-Z Directory. • Select File=>New Test Case. • Click on the red Record button to start recording if needed (it is already on by default when Selenium IDE is first brought up).

  7. Example: Link-Checking • Click on browser window to give it focus. • Click on letter T from alphabetical horizontal navigation bar. • Select Technical Writing link, and wait for new page to load.

  9. Example: Link-Checking • Repeat the last four steps for the Transcripts link. • Click the red Record button to stop recording. • At this point, all of the user actions except the clicks on the Back button have recorded. To take care of these clicks, we will add calls to the goBackAndWait function.

  10. Inserting Selenese Function Calls from Table view • Select Table tab of Selenium IDE. • Select second clickAndWait. • Bring up the context menu of IDE and select Insert New Command. • Type "g" into Command field. • Select goBackAndWait from command menu.
