A built-in Object Repository like UTF/QTP is not present in Selenium for maintaining objects/elements in centralized location. - Built-in Repository facility :
There is no Built-in Reporting facility available. - Inbuilt repository capability :
An inbuilt reporting capability is not present in Selenium. There will be a relyment on plug-ins like JUnit and TestNG for test reports. - Image Testing :
After performing practically Testing on images is not possible so to overcome it we need to Integrate Selenium with Sikuli. - New usage :

For Test Management, no test tool integration is provided by Selenium. - Popups and Frame :
It becomes difficult while processing the popups or frames. - High Skills :
In order to automate tests more effectively, a high skill sets are required by Selenium. - Community forums :
There is a relyment on community forums to get your technical issues resolved this is because Selenium is open source software. - Language :
To create tests scripts in Selenium WebDriver we must know atleast one of the supported languages.
