Course Overview
About Course
In the fast-paced world of software development, automation is vital for efficiency and quality. This 40-hour Selenium Training equips testers and developers with end-to-end proficiency in browser automation, from core WebDriver principles to full CI/CD pipelines.
Beginning with the fundamentals of automation and an overview of Selenium’s components—including IDE, WebDriver, and Grid—the course grounds learners in the mechanics and craftsmanship of automation testing . Java programming modules develop the necessary coding foundation, with focus on OOP and collections essential for scripting robust and reusable tests .
Core WebDriver training teaches element interaction, synchronization, and handling of complex UI scenarios like frames, alerts, and dynamic waits . Test suite structure is addressed through TestNG: tests are organized, data-driven, grouped, and executed in parallel while supporting rich reports.
Framework design modules adopt patterns like Page Object Model and hybrid structures, boosting maintainability. BDD training via Cucumber enhances collaboration through Gherkin scenarios . Scalability is ensured with Selenium Grid, and integration with Maven, Git, and Jenkins turns UI tests into part of an automated pipeline .
The training extends beyond UI, exploring database and API verifications for full-stack validation . Reporting modules introduce frameworks like Extent and Allure, and cover integration with test management tools like TestRail.
Hands-on labs form the core—over 60% of class time is spent coding, configuring, and executing real test cases. A final capstone reinforces learning via a full-fledged automation project, including CI/CD deployment and peer critique.
Aligned with industry certifications like A4Q Foundation, this course ensures testers exit with a solid foundation, practical experience in modern frameworks, and the capacity to implement reliable, maintainable automation suited for agile and DevOps-oriented teams .
