Selenium Test Automation Framework – Advanced Level Instructor-Led Live Training

Elevate your test automation skills with this advanced Selenium live training program. Delve into expert-level locator strategies using XPath, CSS, and regular expressions. Master the Selenium API with advanced user interactions like drag-and-drop, context-sensitive menus, and cookie management. Learn synchronization techniques with implicit, explicit, and fluent waits, and handle complex alert, frame, and window operations. Explore data-driven testing using Java, CSV, and Excel files, and extend Selenium for performance testing, element highlighting, and image comparison. Finally, apply your skills to automate a complete web application using Selenium IDE and WebDriver in Java.

This program is architected for experienced testers and developrs who want to deepen their test automation knowledge using Selenium. It is ideal for those who already have basic Selenium skills and are seeking to apply advanced techniques, such as expert-level locator strategies, complex user interactions, data-driven testing, and advanced synchronization and window management tasks. It is also recommended for those who wish to extend their automation capabilities with performance testing and automation of HTML5 elements.

• fundamental understanding of testing methodologies
• fundamental software development skills (knowledge of Java or Python language is an advantage)
• HTML basics
• foundational knowledge of Selenium IDE and Selenium WebDriver Selenese commands
• Use of locators

Following our introductory course, our Advanced Selenium program will give you even more advanced expertise about using the Selenium framework to facilitate your test automation tasks. Selenium helps to reduce the time needed for testing by providing flexibility, reusability, and parallel testing.

Main topics:

• Expert Locators and Regular Expressions: Master advanced locator strategies with ID, XPath, CSS, and jQuery, and develop proficiency to leverage regular expressions for precise element selection.

• Advanced Selenium API Usage: Explore the Selenium API's advanced user interactions, including drag-and-drop, double-clicking, context-sensitive menus, and managing cookies and WebDriver events.

• Test Synchronization Techniques: Learn and apply implicit, explicit, and fluent waits, along with user wait add-ons, to ensure reliable test synchronization.

• Alert, Frame, and Window Operations: Gain proficiency in handling complex alert boxes, frames, and iframes, and managing child and pop-up windows.

• Data-Driven Testing: Implement data-driven tests using Java, and work with data sources like CSV and Excel files to automate test scenarios based on dynamic data.

• Extending Selenium: Enhance Selenium capabilities with techniques like highlighting elements, performing image comparisons, and conducting performance tests.

• HTML5 Testing: To ensure comprehensive coverage, Automate testing for HTML5 elements, including video automation and managing HTML5 storage.

• Automating a Complete Web Application Test: Apply your knowledge to automate the main pages of a web application, transitioning from Selenium IDE to Selenium WebDriver in Java for end-to-end testing.

After completing the professional development program, you will be able to:

• Utilize advanced locator strategies with XPath, CSS, and regular expressions for precise web element selection.
• Implement complex user interactions using Selenium's API
• Effectively synchronize tests
• Handle advanced operations with alerts, frames, iframes, and manage multiple browser windows and pop-ups.
• Develop and run data-driven tests using Java
• Automate HTML5 elements to ensure comprehensive test coverage.
• Apply your skills to automate the testing of complete web applications

For a more comprehensive view of test automation, we recommend the ISTQB Advanced Test Automation Engineer certification exam preparation courses. It focuses on test automation architectures, frameworks, and industry best practices.
