Does Selenium RC support IE8?

Question

Can anyone confirm if Selenium RC server fully supports IE8?

Answer 1

I have successfully been running tests in IE8 with Selenium RC and Selenium Grid. I'm not sure about 'full' support as I see occasional issues with all versions of Internet Explorer, but if you find any reproducible issues you can raise them in one (or all) of the following places:

• OpenQA Jira: http://jira.openqa.org/
• Selenium Developers Google Group: http://groups.google.co.uk/group/selenium-developers
• Selenium Google Code Issues: http://code.google.com/p/selenium/issues/list

Answer 2

At Sauce labs we have been using Selenium + IE8 for a while now. You can even use our service to test on IE8 yourself.

(Google us, I'm not pasting links, don't want this to sound like spam)

Answer 3

Just make sure to run selenium server and IE8 as Admin and things works like charm.
