Whether you are an experienced WebDriver developer or someone who was newly assigned a task to create automated tests, this book is for you. Since the ideas and concepts are described in simple terms, no previous experience in computer coding or programming is required.

If you are a quality testing professional, or a software or web application developer looking to create automation test scripts for your web applications, with an interest in Python, then this is the perfect guide for you. Python developers who need to do Selenium testing need not learn Java, as they can directly use Selenium for testing with this book.

The updated second edition of the popular tutorial guide to automated testing. Selenium is one of the most popular open-source automated testing tools available today. Understanding Selenium-RC and writing automated tests in a programming language are sought after skills on the job market and a great way of maximising the benefit from automated testing. Contrary to the beliefs of many testers, learning to code does not have to be complicated or hard. "Selenium Simplified" takes you through the process of installing and learning to use all the basic tools needed to write automated tests using Java as the programming language. Written in a tutorial style, this book helps you learn to code even if you haven't programmed before. No time is wasted on the theory of automation or padding about the tools.

Take a deep dive into building data-driven test frameworks using Selenium WebDriver Key Features A comprehensive guide to designing data-driven test frameworks using the Selenium 3 WebDriver API, AppiumDriver API, Java-Bindings, and TestNG Learn how to use Selenium Page Object Design Patterns and D.R.Y. (Don’t Repeat Yourself) Approaches to software development in automated testing Discover the Selenium Grid Architecture and build your own grid for browser and mobile devices Use third party tools and services like ExtentReports for results processing, reporting, and SauceLabs for cloud-based test services Book Description The Selenium WebDriver 3.x Technology is an open source API available to test both Browser and Mobile applications. It is completely platform independent in that tests built for one browser or mobile device, will also work on all other browsers and mobile devices. Selenium supports all major development languages which allow it to be tied directly into the technology used to develop the applications. This guide will provide a step-by-step approach to designing and building a data-driven test framework using Selenium WebDriver, Java, and TestNG. The book starts off by introducing users to the Selenium Page Object Design Patterns and D.R.Y Approaches to Software Development. In doing so, it covers designing and building a Selenium WebDriver framework that supports both Browser and Mobile Devices. It will lead the user through a journey of architecting their own framework with a scalable driver class, Java utility classes, JSON Data Provider, Data-Driven Test Classes, and support for third party tools and plugins. Users will learn how to design and build a Selenium Grid from scratch to allow the framework to scale and support different browsers, mobile devices, versions, and platforms, and how they can leverage third party grids in the Cloud like SauceLabs. Other topics covered include designing abstract base and sub-classes, inheritance, dual-driver support, parallel testing, testing multi-branded applications, best practices for using locators, and data encapsulation. Finally, you will be presented with a sample fully-functional framework to get them up and running with the Selenium WebDriver for browser testing. By the end of the book, you will be able to design your own automation testing framework and perform data-driven testing with Selenium WebDriver. What you will learn Design the Selenium Driver Class for local, remote, and third party grid support Build Page Object Classes using the Selenium Page Object Model Develop Data-Driven Test Classes using the TestNG framework Encapsulate Data using the JSON Protocol Build a Selenium Grid for RemoteWebDriver Testing Construct Utility Classes for use in Synchronization, File I/O, Reporting and Test Listener Classes Run the sample framework and see the benefits of a live data-driven framework in real-time Who this book is for This book is intended for software quality assurance/testing professionals, software project managers, or software developers with prior experience in using Selenium and Java to test web-based applications.This book is geared towards the quality assurance and development professionals responsible for designing and building enterprise-based testing frameworks.The user should have a working knowledge of the Java, TestNG, and Selenium technologies

Test Automation using Selenium with Java - This book teaches how to automate using Selenium.

Web applications are difficult to test because so much depends on the way a user interacts with individual pages. The Selenium WebDriver web testing framework helps developers build reliable and maintainable test automation for their web applications across multiple browsers, operating systems and programming languages. Much like a human, it can click on links, fill out forms, and read web pages. Unlike a human, it never gets bored. WebDriver can do nearly anything it's asked to do-the trick is to come up with a unified approach to testing. Fortunately, that's where this book really shines. Selenium WebDriver in Practice is a hands-on guide to dozens of specific techniques developers can use to get the most out of WebDriver in test automation development. Following a cookbook- style Problem/Solution/Discussion format, this practical handbook gives readers instantly-useful solutions for important areas like interacting with and testing web applications and using the WebDriver APIs. Readers graduate from WebDriver fundamentals to must-have practices ranging from how to interact with, control and verify web pages and exception handling, to more complex interactions like page objects, alerts, and JavaScript, as well as integrating with Continuous Integration tools, mobile testing, and much more. By the end of the book, readers will be confident and skilled at testing their web applications with WebDriver. Purchase of the print book includes a free eBook in PDF, Kindle, and ePub formats from Manning Publications.
