Selenium Automation Course
Course overview
Mastering Selenium automation testing
Course Description:
Selenium automation course is designed to equip participants with automation testing skills using Selenium WebDriver, Java, TestNG, CI/CD Integration, and Best Practices. Learners will build, execute, and maintain robust test automation frameworks and complete a real-world Selenium automation project by the end of the program.
Learning Objectives:
- Understand automation testing concepts and Selenium fundamentals
- Work with Java for Selenium automation
- Locate web elements using XPath, CSS selectors, and other locators.
- Implement Selenium WebDriver for web application testing.
- Develop data-driven, keyword-driven, and hybrid automation frameworks.
- Perform cross-browser testing and parallel execution using TestNG.
- Integrate Selenium with Maven, Jenkins, Git, and CI/CD pipelines.
- Automate web applications using headless browsers and cloud testing tools.
- Work on a real-world Selenium automation project integrating all learned concepts.
Prerequisites:
- Basic Java Programming knowledge
Mentor Support:
Learners will have access to an experienced instructor who will provide support through discussion forums, live Q&A sessions, and email to answer questions and provide guidance throughout the course.
