BDD and Test Automation with SpecFlow, Selenium, and C#

Bridging the gap between technical implementation and business requirements is one of the greatest challenges in software development. This text-based course guides you through behavior-driven development (BDD) and automated testing using SpecFlow, Selenium WebDriver, and C#. You will learn how to turn natural language requirements into reliable, automated test suites that protect your application from regressions. You will transition from understanding basic testing concepts to constructing structured, maintainable test suites. By learning to write executable specifications in Gherkin, you will be able to collaborate with non-technical stakeholders while implementing robust automation behind the scenes for both web interfaces and desktop applications. What you'll learn: - Understand the core principles of Behavior-Driven Development (BDD) and Test-Driven Development (TDD). - Write clear, formalized test scenarios using Gherkin syntax and map them to C# step definitions. - Automate web browser interactions using Selenium WebDriver, including modern locator strategies and synchronization. - Implement the Page Object Model design pattern to build scalable and maintainable test architectures. - Apply modern C# features and dependency injection to manage test state and share data cleanly between steps. - Explore desktop application testing principles using test frameworks designed for WPF and Windows Forms. The course begins with foundational testing theory, unit testing basics, and Gherkin syntax before moving into hands-on web automation. You will progress from reading simple scripts to designing structured test suites using industry-standard design patterns and modern C# coding standards. This course is designed for beginner QA engineers, developers, and business analysts looking to enter the world of test automation. No prior automation experience is required, as we start with the absolute basics of test design and step-by-step code implementation. Start reading today to build reliable, business-aligned automated test suites.
