AWS CodePipeline vs Selenium: What are the differences?
What is AWS CodePipeline? Continuous delivery service for fast and reliable application updates. CodePipeline builds, tests, and deploys your code every time there is a code change, based on the release process models you define.
What is Selenium? Web Browser Automation. Selenium automates browsers. That's it! What you do with that power is entirely up to you. Primarily, it is for automating web applications for testing purposes, but is certainly not limited to just that. Boring web-based administration tasks can (and should!) also be automated as well.
AWS CodePipeline can be classified as a tool in the "Continuous Deployment" category, while Selenium is grouped under "Browser Testing".
"Simple to set up" is the primary reason why developers consider AWS CodePipeline over the competitors, whereas "Automates browsers" was stated as the key factor in picking Selenium.
Selenium is an open source tool with 14.7K GitHub stars and 4.92K GitHub forks. Here's a link to Selenium's open source repository on GitHub.
MIT, PedidosYa, and HubSpot are some of the popular companies that use Selenium, whereas AWS CodePipeline is used by Volta Industries, ChromaDex, and PouchNATION. Selenium has a broader approval, being mentioned in 770 company stacks & 425 developers stacks; compared to AWS CodePipeline, which is listed in 30 company stacks and 15 developer stacks.
