Up to 4 clients may run tests on a single server including IE. The reason for the IE browsers to interfere is: "For firefox, user can create a user profiles, and specify a profile for a particular test, therefore, multiple tests can run concurrently on the same machine. For IE, Selenium RC modify registry settings and configures the LAN connection settings directly, therefore only a single test can be run on a single machine." (from http://khaidoan.wikidot.com/selenium-rc) My solution: I created 4 windows users each running a selenium rc server (on different ports of course) - so the IE browsers cannot interact with each other. BUT: The 4 users must all be logged on otherwise the IE does not start (they may be inactive or disconnected). But be sure to have enough CPU power - IE is 5-10 (!) times slower than firefox, which may cause waitFor-commands to time out. I am using Selenium RC at work.

Does not seem to work with Internet Explorer. Selenium tests always try to re-use the existing IE window (instead of launching a new IE window), causing tests to collide in the same IE window.
