# 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**Legacy page.** Selenium Builder is no longer actively maintained, and the Firefox add-on does not work on modern Firefox (Firefox dropped legacy XUL add-ons in 2017).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](https://testingbot.com/support/web-automate/codeless-automation/add-test) or the [TestingBot AI agent](https://testingbot.com/support/ai/codeless) for natural-language test creation. This page is kept for historical reference.

## About the Selenium Builder Plugin

[Selenium Builder](http://sebuilder.com/) was a Firefox add-on that supported WebDriver test recording. TestingBot maintained a [Selenium Builder plugin](https://github.com/testingbot/sb-testingbot-plugin) that ran recorded tests on the TestingBot grid in parallel without local setup.

### Installing and using the plugin

1. Install [Selenium Builder addon](http://sebuilder.com/) in FireFox.

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.
