CI With Bazel (Why Selenium is Using It and You Should Too)

Software development can be a real grind, but one thing that makes it more bearable is the joy of a passing build. Not only is that green bar important when you're iterating on a feature, but it's normally a vital part of determining whether or not your software can be released. Getting to a green build as quickly as possible allows you to experience the joy of a passing build more frequently, and allows you to verify that the next release is good more quickly than your competitors. It's a vital building block as we move towards Continuous Deployment. Given how important fast builds are in your software development, how can you make the most of Selenium 4 to help get you there? In this Keynote, Simon Stewart, Selenium Project Lead & Creator of WebDriver, covers how automation frameworks can make your life easier and your builds faster and shows how you can best use them to help reduce your build times.

Selenium: State of the Union

Selenium: State of the Union

Have you ever wondered how Selenium works under the covers? Do you get frustrated with locators not locating, pages not loading, or browsers behaving inconsistently from one run to the next? Selenium is an attempt to unify thousands of disparate elements across a wide spectrum of challenges into a single, common interface that works seamlessly with all the major browsers - and yet only a handful of volunteers work to maintain this gigantic effort. If you would like to enhance your own Selenium experience while contributing back to the software that has defined so many of our careers, come to this workshop. In it we'll dissect the different elements of Selenium, dive into its internals, learn how it was built and how to make changes to it, and even write a unit test you can contribute on the same day!

In this talk Simon will discuss the past, present, and future of Selenium WebDriver.
