- Take a deeper dive into practical automation implementation
- Get hands-on practice with a wide variety of automation techniques
- Learn the types of tests that can be automated
- Learn how automation fits into the agile software development and testing approach
One of the tenets of being successful in test automation is to employ solid engineering practices at the beginning. This course is designed to help you do just that, covering topics from the basics of test automation—definitions, benefits, and misconceptions—to planning for automation in an agile environment. Along the way various automation test types and techniques are covered, including UI, API, Database, Unit, and Functional vs. Non-Functional testing.
Learn how to select the right approaches to best suit the needs of your organization. This course also teaches you how to develop your own test automation strategy and get the most out of your tests, as well as integrating them into a continuous integration (CI) process.
Using a hands-on approach, participants explore proper techniques for building maintainable automated tests using frameworks. A number of practical exercises are built in, incuding Behavior-Driven Testing (BDD) using Cucumber.
Who Should Attend
This course is ideal for those in developer and testing roles who need to learn automation or improve their existing automation knowledge. The course features hands-on exercises to illustrate the topics discussed and provides students an opportunity to learn by doing. Those that are new to agile development or have never built automation should consider Fundamentals of Agile Test Automation.
