The Worldwide Web Consortium (W3C) WebDriver Specification was a sea change in test automation. Implemented and supported by all major browser vendors, it provided an industry standard mechanism for automating browsers. However, times have changed, and testers have started to expect more from their test automation tools.

The next iteration of the WebDriver standard, WebDriver BiDi, is currently being developed by the W3C to meet these new expectations. Learn how it is poised to have an even greater impact on test automation than the original WebDriver standard.

In this LambdaTest webinar, Jim Evans, Principal Member Of Technical Staff, Salesforce, has teamed up with Manoj Kumar, VP – Developer Relations & OSPO, LambdaTest, to explore the evolving world of browser automation. They delve into the exciting new developments around WebDriver BiDi, the next iteration of the W3C WebDriver Specification, which promises to revolutionize test automation even further than its predecessor.

They also covered the essential aspects of WebDriver BiDi, including what it is, how it operates, and how it stands out from the original WebDriver and other web automation technologies. They'll also explore the practical applications for testers and how individuals can contribute to its ongoing development.

The webinar ended with a Q&A session.
