To automate testing of common application scenarios using a data-driven test approach

Report bugs and create regression tests right in the browser window

Get a good foundation on how to do data-driven test automation

Requirements

  • Basic understanding of data and software
  • Basic understanding of HTML
  • Knowledge in Javascript is helpful but not required

Description

This course teaches the fundamentals of Test Automation using the Boozang tool. The Lab has a number of common test automation problems and we will go though them one by one to teach you how to solve different test automation challenges. We will cover timing of elements, data handling, form fills, data provisioning, elements selectors, on-screen annotations, and how to incorporate Javascript into your tests.

Instead of recording long end-to-end tests, the focus of this course is to create short, highly reusable, data-driven tests that can be stitched together to handle complex test automation end-to-end flows.

The user can sign up for a free trial on the Boozang homepage and follow along in the exercises. In the end of the course, the student will have enough knowledge to be able to create a test that can play a simple game. The Lab is Open Source and can be used for demos of the test automation platform of your choice.

Normally, doing test automation in tools like Selenium requires programming and has a long learning curve. 

The student should be able to complete the course in a couple of hours and be able to create automated tests for fairly complicated web sites or applications without any prior knowledge of programming or test automation tools.
