Python or Java for selenium

Question

Python or Java which one is better for using selenium?

What are the benefits of using either?

Please help.

Answer 1

According to me Python is better for using selenium. Here are few reason why I prefer Python for Selenium rather than using Java

• Python is simpler and more compact compared to Java
• Java uses traditional braces to start and ends blocks, whilePython uses indentation
• Java employs static typing, whilePython is dynamically typed
• Java programs tend to run slower compared toPython programs

Hope this justifies my point for using Python over Java.
