Selenium Training – Web Automation Workshop
Course 3163
4 DAY COURSE

This mid- to advanced-level workshop is designed to teach automation testers and developers the functionality of Selenium and how to begin the process of building an automated framework. This workshop is offered as a series of hands-on “projects” that require participants to understand, design, and implement components of an automated testing framework.

This is a mid- to advanced-level workshop for automation testers and developers

A background in programming (e.g. Java) and/or scripting and understanding of basic Selenium features.

Selenium Training – Web Automation Workshop Benefits

• Install and configure the necessary components needed to run Selenium successfully
• Identify and inspect objects and attributes on a variety of browsers
• Develop reusable functions as part of creating a Selenium automated framework
• Enhance and maintain a Selenium framework

  • Including verifications and assertions into test case
  • Parameterizing values for test cases
  • Selenium Action Commands
  • Handling Web Table
  • Handling Drop Down elements
• The Selenium Grid

Module Seven

• Extensive framework development (class participant exercise)
  • Additional test case development
  • How to maintain a framework when the application changes
• Open topics (recap anything that needs more explanation)

Module Eight

• Test environment configuration day
  • Participants will be given an application and test plan. They will be asked to set up the test framework and produce a report of their execution.
  • This will test their ability to create a suite from beginning to end and allow them to walk away from the classroom with a complete Selenium proof of concept environment.
  • Ideally this will include Selenium, POM or Keyword framework, Selenium Grid, GitHub, Jenkins, and exercising Continuous Integration.
