Can You Use Selenium for API Testing?
http://www.testtalks.com/137
Because I see this question Can You use Selenium for API Testing? quite often I decided to create this quick audio taking from my interview with Bas Bas Dijkstra on TestTalks.
For anybody who knows a little about Selenium web drivers that it's a ... I'm not even call it a test tool per say, because it's a browser automation tool that simulates the interaction of a user with a browser. It does not simulate the interaction of a user of a system we make. That should make it pretty clear that Selenium is not a tool for API testing. Well of course, if you have a user interface base or custom framework which is built around Selenium web browser you could easily extend that framework to include API testing, but you need a different tool or library for doing that.
