Choosing an automated testing tool

Question

My project is compatible only with Internet Explorer. I want the test scripts to get generated automatically as it is done in Selenium IDE.

Can i use Selenium RC to test

Answer 1

Selenium RC works with IE, but is very buggy with IE 6 (to the point of being unusable). Generating the scripts is not trivial and there are many methods of doing it. We have created a Firefox extension that examines objects via introspection to make click recording easy. There are many options out there but your best bet is to write your tests with Firefox/Firebug (or Chrome). They will make object location much simpler and if you are careful the locator strings should still work in IE.
