Yes, using bare selenium is a writeoff, especially if you are testing modern frameworks like React or VueJS which dynamically modify the DOM. You need firstly a framework that understands these technologies and then on top of that you want something that offers a structure to capture the common actions and build an automatable view of a page. For these requirements I have used Geb [1] with the Page Object Model approach with reasonable success - but you still have to approach writing your tests as actual software, not ad hoc random scripting.
