Selenium Builder Plugin (legacy)

Legacy page. Selenium Builder is no longer actively maintained, and the Firefox add-on does not work on modern Firefox (Firefox dropped legacy XUL add-ons in 2017). For current codeless test recording on TestingBot use the Selenium IDE upload flow or the TestingBot AI agent for natural-language test creation. This page is kept for historical reference.

About the Selenium Builder Plugin

Selenium Builder was a Firefox add-on that supported WebDriver test recording. TestingBot maintained a Selenium Builder plugin that ran recorded tests on the TestingBot grid in parallel without local setup.

Installing and using the plugin

  1. Install Selenium Builder addon in FireFox.
  2. Launch the addon in Firefox.
  3. In Selenium Builder, click "Manage Plugins"
  4. Install the TestingBot Plugin & restart Selenium Builder
  5. Enter "https://testingbot.com" in the input field below "Start recording at".
  6. Depending on the type of test you want to record, click Selenium 1 or Selenium 2.
    We recommend Selenium 2 since Selenium 1 is deprecated, so we'll continue with Selenium 2.
  7. Once you clicked Selenium 2, wait for the browser to open "https://testingbot.com"
  8. Now we'll record a verification, click "Record a verification".
    Select the "Online Selenium Testing" title on the TestingBot home page.
  9. Click the "Stop Recording" button, we will now run this test on TestingBot!
  10. Select "Run on TestingBot" from the "Run" menu.
  11. Enter your Key and Secret which you received after signing up with TestingBot.
  12. Select a browser/platform and click "OK", your test will run on TestingBot and you will see the test results in your member area.
