Test automation has gained traction over the years because teams do not have the time("fast..,fast..,fast") or affluence to invest in large test teams to make sure that applications work as they are expected. Developers also want to make sure that the code they have created works as they expect it to.
Jason Huggins realized this issue too and wanted to make sure that a system he was working on would work on multiple operating systems and browsers. He created Selenium.
