Remote Test Automation with Selenium Grid (TT3619) Training in Spain

Explore Practical Test Automation with Selenium, the WebDriver API, the Selenium Server and Selenium Grid.

This is an intermediate level course, geared for Test Engineers, Quality Assurance Engineers, and their management who have prior knowledge of Selenium basics. Code examples are in a combination of the specific domain-specific languages and Java, so some experience in object-oriented development with Java is expected.

Developers, Web Developers, Testers, Test Engineers, QA, Technical Managers.

Students who attend Automated Web Testing with Selenium Driver will leave the course armed with the skills required to recognize how to test web applications for sufficiency. This course uses Selenium and the WebDriver interface to design and implement tests. The student will work with a sample Web Application that requires several testing scenarios.

This “skills-centric” course is about 50% hands-on lab and 50% lecture, designed to train attendees in core Selenium and web testing skills, coupling the most current, effective techniques with the soundest industry practices. Working in a hands-on environment led by our expert practitioner students will:

• Understand web page testing needs and how Selenium meets those needs
• Analyze a web application from a functional and testing perspective
• Use Selenium constructs to locate elements on a web page
• Test web page forms and the elements in those forms
• Use test suites to organize and manage tests
• Review Java constructs needed to by testers in working with WebDriver
• Design code and run automated Selenium tests using the Java WebDriver API
• Use the WebDriver API to test advanced web features such as delayed responses and Ajax
• Using a combination of JUnit 5 features and WebDriver to consume streams of data for testing
• Focus on Best Practices for Selenium testing using the Java WebDriver API
• Work with Selenium server and webdriver-manager to run tests
• Setup and run a Selenium Grid to run a set of Selenium tests
• Setup and run Selenium tests in parallel in a Selenium Grid
• Setup and run Selenium tests in a Cloud solution (if students have internet access)
• An overview of how it all works in Continuous Integration
