Does Google Chrome work with Selenium IDE (as Firefox does)?

you can use Google chrome extensions like imacros, scirocco on chrome 21 or later versions. they are similar to selenium IDE for Firefox. Scirocco seems to be new with some limitations like navigation is not supported. So, I recommend 'imacros', seems very close to selenium.

artejera, do you mean Selenium as plugin to your browser (Selenium IDE)? Here is something for automation in Google Chrome.

But if you want to work with Selenium RC, just set up browser in your test script. There is setBrowser() method in Selenium.
