Selenium was first conceptualized in 2004 at ThoughtWorks for website automation and has come a long way from it’s first Web Driver version to becoming a W3C standard protocol. The test cases are brittle, the failures are common, and the maintenance of automated test cases takes more time and cost than it takes to automate them.

You could create and update blog posts, all content was straight HTML — open-source WYSIWYG editors weren’t available at the time, and Markdown didn’t come about until 2004.
