This library is a Webdriver
(browser automation) module for Node.JS. It makes it possible to write
super easy Selenium) tests in your favorite
BDD/TDD test framework, that will run locally or in the cloud using Sauce Labs, BrowserStack or TestingBot.
WebdriverIO is agnostic with regards to the test framework you want to use. Cucumber, Jasmine and Mocha+Chai
are supported by the configuration wizard.
shell
npm install webdriverio
`
or if you want to use the wdio test runner
`shell
npm install -g webdriverio
`
Getting started
Simply run wdio config and the configuration helper wizard will get you set up:
!wdio wizard
With all that done, have a look at the many examples.

Syntax example
`js
browser.url('http://google.com');
$('#q').setValue('webdriver');
$('#btnG').click();
`
Notice how this is far simpler than with the original selenium-webdriverjs,
`js
driver.get('http://www.google.com');
driver.findElement(webdriver.By.id('q')).sendKeys('webdriver');
driver.findElement(webdriver.By.id('btnG')).click();
`
and significantly simpler than with WD.js:
`js
browser
.get("http://www.google.com")
.elementById('q')
.sendKeys('webdriver')
.elementById('btnG')
.click()
