2023-05-30	Wayne George	Worked well for me. Was a great introduction to automated web app testing. I'm now working with WebDriver built into my applications.

2023-02-24	Sun Kim	It works, but I get prompt.js errors causing severe delays. I was wondering why my web browser had significant delays and it was selenium extension where prompt.js was holding up the web page from loading. If you're going to use this, be selective about what web sites you give it permission to, or use it on a specific profile that you only use for testing. Other automation extensions don't do this... Pretty disappointing it ended up being malware. Uncaught SyntaxError: Identifier 'originalPrompt' has already been declared (at prompt.js:1:1)
2023-01-20	Julian Brooks	The recording feature was unable to register tasks as simple as right clicks in a spreadsheet. Pretty disappointing.
2023-01-10	Elena Andreyanova	OMG. This tool is so slow.Just tried to record a simple test like login - go to dashboard -created an offer and Playing back is soooo slow.
2022-12-06	Glen Vincent	Very poorly designed UI. Shockingly bad resource hog. Constantly having to reload the web browser extension. gave up trying to get command line runner installed
2022-11-22	R L	Life saver. I knew nothing about selenium but thankfully this easy-to-use extension helped code my ms access vba web integration project I had to convert from IE VBA automation.
2022-09-23	Ambro van Wyk	Can someone please confirm that the !statusOK variable is not working anymore? There are no replies to this issue on the forums, maybe im just not using the plugin correctly, but I have now wasted 2 days of my life with the boss unable to understand that sometimes plugins do not do what they promised.

2022-01-30	Проект Ваз 2114	Один раз работал, теперь не на одном браузере не работает!
2021-11-15	Marius C.	It's amazing how much this extension has improved. I've started using it again after a 5 year gap, and it has helped me immensely to automate some tedious tasks. Love how you can skip over the authentication steps in your scripts because it's using the cookies from your existing session to login and allow you to start your script anywhere in the app. Great job. Love it.
2021-11-12	Tim Sommerstedt	Been using it for little more than 1 week and it is going to be the used to test my companies system. Really easy to get into and works quite well, but does take some time to get the full hang off. Really wish that they would begin to implement regex matches with assert text that would be lovely. This review would prob have been a 5 star review if not for the fact that they are still missing the regex assert. Had to make some javascript code to do it for me, but thank god for the for and while loop commands. Would also be nice to get a feature that looks at network responses, but that has sadly been denied by the devs from my understanding which otherwise would make web testing much easier. Otherwise a wonderfull extension. With kind regards - Tim Sommerstedt
2021-11-10	徐悦	这里隐式等待时间怎么设置修改呢？
2021-11-03	Veena Devi	is there any way to take screenshot or any workaround?
2021-10-25	guilherme galano	horrivel!!!
2021-09-29	Callum Elliot	Does not record or playback. Record does not pick up any events. I successfully recorded a google search test using firefox, but loading the saved test always failed when trying to find a page element, in this case the search form. Felt like it was trying to find the element before the page had opened. Sometimes a browser window opened, sometimes not.
