Browserbite vs WebdriverIO: What are the differences?
Developers describe Browserbite as "Automatic cross browser layout testing". Browserbite looks at the screenshots for you using complex computer vision and machine learning techniques and finds the problems for you. On the other hand, WebdriverIO is detailed as "Webdriver/Selenium 2.0 JavaScript bindings for Node.js". WebdriverIO lets you control a browser or a mobile application with just a few lines of code. Your test code will look simple, concise and easy to read.
Browserbite and WebdriverIO belong to "Browser Testing" category of the tech stack.
WebdriverIO is an open source tool with 5.04K GitHub stars and 1.44K GitHub forks. Here's a link to WebdriverIO's open source repository on GitHub.

with the help of selenium we can automate react js for functional testing
Hi, I am starting out to test an application that is currently being developed - FE: React. BE: Node JS. I want the framework to be able to test all UI scenarios (from simple to complex) and also have the capability to test APIs. I also need to run tests across all OSs and Browsers (Windows, Mac, Android, iOS). I have also looked into react-testing-library and @TestProject.io. Any advice you can give as to which framework would be best and why would be so much appreciated! Thank you!!
You should also definitely look into Playwright, which is a new automation tool from Microsoft building on top of the Puppeteer experience and trying to bring this experience in the cross browser space - very exciting project. Great team. Also CodeceptJS as already Playwright support which at a ton of valuable features on top of Playwright, give it a go!
I'm also looking for the same, FE: React & BE: NodeJS. Cypress won't help as it lacks cross-browser testing, it doesn't support all the browsers. I'm still investigating it, but looks like WebdriverIO may fulfil what I'm looking for - Cross-browser testing, integration with CI/CD, running it as a docker service, good support on assertions & reporting of test results. Let me know if you found any information on any of the above mentioned points.
Hi Esther, if you really need cross OS and cross device automation Cypress wont help, with WebdriverIO you can do it … and check out CodeceptJS, which is a wrapper around several frameworks (like WebdriverIO) and will support future players (currently for example upcoming Playwright) as well.
