how to open Gmail inbox and readmail with selenium tool

i' m testing my web appli开发者_运维百科cation with selenium. When a user registered, an activation link will sent to user mail id. now i' m able to login to gmail account and unable to pen inbox using selenium. Is there any solution to solve this problem?

thank in advance.

Do you actually need gmail for that? If there is activation link sent to specified e-mail, what about trying other service for e-mail? I have been playing around with gmail via Selenium IDE and did not found any solution...
