Is there a Selenium 2 version of Selenium IDE?
selenium, selenium-ide, selenium-rc, selenium-webdriver
Solution
Versioning of Selenium releases has always been kind of confusing. The essential difference between Selenium 1 and 2 is that Selenium 1 used the Selenium Remote Control interface, while Selenium 2 is based on WebDriver. That means: Selenium 2 tests are such ones that you write in code, e.g. in Java, in an object-oriented manner. Everything you record or script using the Selenium IDE uses the Selenium RC interface, which still works with Selenium 2 for backwards compatibility. So there is no Selenium IDE 2.
Problem
I'm new to Selenium and I'm a bit confused about the version numbers. Selenium 2.0 was released in 2011. I just downloaded the Selenium IDE Firefox extension and it is version `1.7.2`. Is there also a 2.0 release of the `IDE`, or does the `1`. x series confusingly contain the `2.0` code? I checked Selenium HQ, which states that `1.7.2` is currently the latest release of the Selenium IDE.
