How to Automate mainframe through Selenium - selenium

How do I automate main frame application with use of Selenium, which pulgin should i use?
Does sequili works on mainframe?
Also I have to automate AS400.
Does anyone has useful content on github?

You can't use Selenium to automate mainframe application. Selenium is just to automate web applications. Please look into Jagacy, which is a java library with which you can automate mainframe applications. For more info please go through the below website,

I don't think you can automate mainframe using selenium as Selenium is intended only for Browser based web applications., to achieve this you have to use other third party jars:
you would have to use Jacob library to connect to the COM
jagacy
A 3270 (Jagacy) plug-in which is used to automate mainframe applications

Is there a way to record / generate a video file of the browser session for selenium webdriver with the following setup?
Environment / Test Setup:
e2e web tests (written in any language)

Since, there is no direct support from selenium, you may use third party tool like Monte Media Library. See the link:

File upload and download is possible in webdriver.
SAP UI5 appliation can be automated.
I will be using Selenium Wedriver with Java.
Kindly help.

1) I don't see why it wouldn't be possible to automate it, unless it is written in Silverlight.
2) Yes
3) Kind of. Best to leave the usability tests to the acceptance testers, QA should mostly be focused on functionality, at least with automation.
4) Yes. See here.
5) No. I have had luck automating the SAP GUI with Sikuli, though.

How would you test a browser?

I have two questions about testing a browser
The browser I am trying to test is somewhat hybrid. It sometimes runs in chromium way and sometimes runs in internet explorer way
It's hard to check whether all the websites work well in a browser. How would you check that? If there is a good open-source automation tool to do this, would you guys recommend me?
If there is anyone testing a browser, how do you guys automate the test? (if there is a good scenario form, i'd be grateful if you guys share and sharing a automation tool would be nice too)
I'd appreciate it if I get a reply :-)

you can use selenium ide tool for automation testing.
There are a few good technologies in this realm:
For testing and validation of web development / websites in general you can use Selenium Grid which is meant to test websites in various browses
The URL for Selenium Grid: https://code.google.com/p/selenium/wiki/Grid2
To automate use cases in a browser you can use the free popular Selenium tool which can be used in various languages (http://www.seleniumhq.org/download/).
Other tools:
Mechanize (http://wwwsearch.sourceforge.net/mechanize/)

Automate launching and performing GUI operations in Java Web Start application

I want to automate GUI testing that involves following steps.
Open a URL in my web browser (Internet Explorer). The page at this URL will contain a link.
Click the link on the page. This will download a JNLP and launch the Java Web Start application automatically.
The application will have some text fields that need to be filled in and some buttons that need to be pressed.
How can I automate this?
Platform: Windows
Edit: I'm looking at Sikuli as a possible method of automating this, but I don't know if it will be able to switch between applications from the web browser (in step 1) to the Java application (in step 3). Are there any other tools available (preferably open source) that I should be looking at?
Sikuli will be able to switch between the two applications, for sure. It's quite good at that sort of thing, since it's agnostic about the underlying GUI technology.
In my opinion, Sikuli sounds like the fastest and easiest way to get your test scenario automated, because otherwise you may need to deal with two frameworks (one for automating the web browser and another for your Java application).

How to automate custom designed browser based application?

We have an JavaScript application which runs on our own custom designed browser. Now, I have came across the situation to automate our application on that browser.
I have vast experience in Selenium Webdriver using Java. But it doesn't automate it.
Could you please let me know can we automate custom designed browser using selenium. If yes please explain.
or
Is there any open source tool to automate it using Java as scripting language.
I have tried Sikuli but it is very slow. Please suggest something else.
I also heard about Google Window Tester Pro. Will it do for me. If yes please let me know how to setup it in eclipse.
Thanks in advance..
