We have existing selenium tests in many projects but these were turned off due to problems running selenium on the server. Selenium has been updated a few times since then but it may be that the underlying problem is that we were continually re-launching firefox. i want to know if there is any other browser which i can keep running at backend and no need to open every time which sometime slow the server and at worse hang it. please suggest some solutions.

You may be interested in PhantomJS which is a headless browser with a selenium webdriver http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11226648/is-it-possible-to-use-selenium-web-driver-to-drive-phantomjs – KeepCalmAndCarryOn Feb 13 '14 at 01:12

How slow is slow? What problems are you having? You've literally said nothing about the issues the tests are having. – Arran Feb 13 '14 at 09:22
