Getting Started with Selenium Core

Selenium Core is one of several ways you can use Selenium for browser automation. One of the easiest ways to get started is to use "Selenium IDE" to record a test and play it back. (At the time of this writing, May 2006, Selenium IDE only works in Firefox.)

The first thing to read is our own Selenium Core guide, available on OpenQA:
