Selenium IDE is a tremendous help for projects that want integration testing, and want to enable any team member to write ballpark tests. Selenium IDE saved us hundreds or thousands of hours. For example, my team took an existing web app with no tests, and had the project manager and junior business analysis go through the entire app with the Selenium IDE, writing tests. This enabled our dev team to start coding fast…

If you say that "Selenium IDE saved us hundreds or thousands of hours", why not convince your company to donate 10% of the money saved back to Selenium, so that they maybe have the resources to actually pay someone to continue development of these useful tools?

Of course, Selenium (WebDriver) still works. However, this might be the push for people to investigate other test frameworks. I found TestCafe by DevExpress ( https://devexpress.github.io/testcafe/ ) is a great tool and is also completely open source (MIT!). It's a shame that the community is so small because it's so powerful. Maybe this might be the push that moves some more people over?

Their sites aren't very clear - what differentiates their open source version ( http://devexpress.github.io/testcafe/ ) from the paid ($500/dev/year) version? ( https://testcafe.devexpress.com/ )

There's an explanation about this difference in the FAQ: https://devexpress.github.io/testcafe/faq/#what-is-the-diffe...
