I want to automate test cases on web application. Basically a tool that records my actions and then replays them whenever i want it to. I have checked Selenium webdriver but it requires coding and is very difficult to implement(or am I not implementing it properly)? Please suggest.

Its called End to end testing (E2E) and there are plenty of frameworks to do that. For example, cypress.

thanks .. we are thinking of using cypress.io .. how would you rate it ?

Idk, I never actually enjoyed it. I prefer unit tests with jest+codecov because it always was enough for me.

thank you for sharing..will checkout jest+codecov
