Release information for different distributions of Selenium

Selenium 0.4.0

May 20, 2005

This release breaks backward compatibility in 3 ways:

  1. The 'click' command now requires the 'AndWait' suffix in order to wait for a page to reload. The 'nowait' parameter is no longer supported.
  2. The previously undocumented 'link:' locator is now specified as 'link=the link text'
  3. The previously undocumented 'setVariable' command has been renamed to 'store', with slightly different semantics.

Safari support
Most Selenium features now work in Safari!
Click command doesn't wait
Use 'clickAndWait' to wait for a page reload
Locator specificity
Can use prefixes ('id=', 'xpath=' etc) to specify exactly which locator strategy to use.
Better XPath support
Works in Konqueror, and is faster on other platforms.
Javascript parameters
All parameters can now take a javascript{...} syntax, constructing the parameter value from javascript.
Handle 'AndWait' commands in popup windows
This bug has been fixed
Bug fixes
Many broken things fixed.
