You got selenium questions? I got answers!
What is the best way to learn Selenium, mainly the commands or syntax? Are there any practice sites like how there are for learning coding/programming?
There are plenty of tutorials on YouTube. I would recommend playing around with Selenium IDE and/or Katalon Recorder. These are browser plugins that you can install and are step recorders. You can later export the script you've recorded into a script from either of these plugins.
Unfortunately Selenium IDE is not the best way to practice selenium, according to most of the Youtube tutorials, since one is a scripting generator (from the UI recording) and the other is actually programming scripts (or lines of codes); which can be executed from terminals.
Additonally youtube tutorials are informative, but are passive learning since there aren't any applied practicals. Looking for recommendation of practicing selenium webdriver with a premade sandbox like websites that has sandbox for learning programming(e.g. Sololearn, W3schools, fcc, etc.).
