There is not a Google Chrome extension comparable to Selenium IDE     Scirocco is only a partial  and reportedly unreliable  implementation   There is another plugin  the Bug Buster Test Recorder  but it only works with their service   I don t know it s effectiveness   Sahi and TestComplete can also record  but neither are free  and are not browser plugins   iMacros is a plugin that allows record and playback  but is not geared towards testing  and is not compatible with Selenium   It sounds like there is a demand for a tool like this  and Firefox is becoming unsupported by Selenium   So  while I know Stack Overflow isn t the forum for this  anyone interested in helping make it happen  let me know   I d be interested in what the limitations are and why it hasn t been done   Is it just that the official Selenium team doesn t want to support it  or is there a technical limitation

While you cannot record tests using the Selenium IDE in Chrome  or any other browser other than FF   you can run them  from the IDE  in Chrome  IE and other browsers using the Webdriver playback feature of Selenium 2 IDE   Tests will need to be recorded and launched from FF - Chrome will launch before the first step of the test is executed  Instructions for setup and test execution are here and here   You will need to install Selenium 2 IDE  if you haven t already done so  and the Chrome Webdriver Server executable - both are available for download on the Selenium HQ website   NOTE   If the above meets your needs  you may also want to consider just converting all your tests to Selenium Webdriver  which means they would be all code and no longer run from the Selenium IDE    This would be a better solution from the perspective of test maintenance and simplicity of execution   The Selenium documentation  on the Selenium website  has more information on the process to convert Selenium IDE tests to Webdriver
