In this comprehensive course, you'll embark on a journey to master Selenium, a powerful tool for automating web applications. Starting with the basics of setting up your first web application, you'll learn to efficiently locate web elements using various strategies like ID, name, and tag name.
The course includes the use of TestNG for project setup and debugging techniques. You'll explore handling different form elements, creating robust automation scripts that mimic real-world interactions. Advanced topics like window navigation, alert handling, and using WebDriver's manage window methods are covered, along with implicit and explicit waits for dynamic web testing. The course also covers cross-browser testing, headless tests, and data-driven testing using CSV and Excel files. By the end, you'll understand the Page Object Model, Selenium Grid, and standalone server, equipping you with the skills to scale your automation tests. Designed for QA professionals and software testers with basic web technology knowledge, the course enhances skills in automated testing using Selenium. Fundamental Java knowledge is recommended.
In this module, we will guide you through the process of setting up your first web application for Selenium automation. You will learn critical refactoring shortcuts to streamline your workflow and gain proficiency in using key keyboard shortcuts to speed up your development tasks. This foundational knowledge is crucial for efficient test automation and framework implementation.
