What Ranorex Selocity is
Ranorex Selocity is a free browser extension for creating and evaluating selectors used in Selenium tests. It also supports WebDriver.io and Protractor. The extension works with Chrome DevTools and can generate CSS, XPath, Link Text, and RanoreXPath selectors. Its smart selector option ignores dynamically generated IDs, helping produce more stable locators. You can edit selectors and see matching DOM elements highlighted with the number of matches. Selectors can be copied from the DevTools panel or through a page element’s right-click quick-copy command. Keyboard shortcuts and automatic quote insertion assist with copying selectors into tests. Selocity supports dark mode and settings for generated-ID handling, automatic escaping, highlighting, partial class names, minimal target selectors, and theme selection. Ranorex describes it for automation engineers and QA teams. The Chrome Web Store disclosure says the developer will not collect or use user data. It is a Chrome DevTools extension for desktop use.
