Selenium WebDriver 4 and Cucumber BDD: Java Test Automation

Manual testing can be repetitive and time-consuming, making automated testing an essential skill for modern software development teams. Transitioning into test automation requires a solid grasp of industry-standard tools and behavior-driven development practices. This text-based course guides you from the fundamental concepts of software testing to building scalable, real-world automation frameworks. You will understand how to write clean, maintainable test scripts and bridge the gap between technical implementation and business requirements. What you'll learn: - Understand the core concepts of test automation and configure your testing environment using Java and Maven. - Master Selenium WebDriver 4 to interact with web elements using modern locator strategies and handle dynamic page behaviors. - Apply Behavior-Driven Development (BDD) principles using Cucumber to write human-readable test scenarios. - Design robust test frameworks using the Page Object Model (POM) and manage test execution with TestNG. - Integrate automated test suites into continuous integration pipelines using Jenkins. You will start by learning basic testing terminology and Java fundamentals before moving on to browser automation. As you progress, you will read through clear code explanations and conceptual breakdowns to structure your tests like a professional QA engineer. This course is designed for beginners, manual testers looking to transition into automation, and developers wanting to write better automated tests, with no prior automation experience required.
