Golden test framework with Java/Selenium/TestNG/Maven/Log4j2

🌟 Course Title: Golden Test Framework with Java/Selenium/TestNG/Maven/Log4j2

Headline: Create a Robust, Maintainable, Reusable, and Friendly Test Framework Using the Page Object Model Design Pattern!

🚀 Course Overview:

In this comprehensive course, I, Yalcin Batur, will guide you through the process of building a test framework using Java, Selenium WebDriver, TestNG, Maven, and Apache Log4j2 within IntelliJ. This course is structured into two main parts: Lessons and Practical Application.

Lessons Part:

• Selenium & TestNG Foundations: We'll kick off by covering the basics of Selenium WebDriver, understanding the core concepts of TestNG, and establishing the foundational knowledge necessary for building our framework.

• Setting Up Your Environment: I'll walk you through setting up all the software tools and dependencies needed to get started with your project.

• Real-World Application: In the second part, we'll transition from theory to practice by automating a real-world website, applying what we've learned to build a robust test framework.

Page Object Model Design Pattern:

• The framework will be constructed in line with the Page Object Model (POM) design pattern, ensuring maintainability and readability of your tests. This approach is ideal for automating multiple page applications by segregating the automation logic from the test code itself.

📚 Detailed Course Curriculum:

• Java Essentials: Gain enough Java knowledge to effectively start automating web applications.

• Software Setup: Learn how to set up everything you need to begin your project.

• Selenium WebDriver Basics: Master basic methods of Selenium WebDriver and understand how to use ChromeOptions for a more tailored experience.

• HTML Automation: Dive into automating web applications by understanding HTML structure, and how to locate elements using XPath and CSS selectors.

• Java Tools: Create handy Java tools, such as a dynamic date formatter, to streamline your test cases.

• Page Object Model Framework: Understand the importance of POM in automation and learn how to design a framework following this best practice.

• Assertions: Explore different types of assertions, the difference between hard and soft assertions, and how to implement smart wait strategies.

• Global Configurations: Set up a properties file for storing global configurations like usernames and passwords.

• Screenshots and Debugging: Learn to take meaningful screenshots and use the JavaScript Executor for advanced debugging.

• TestNG Control: Controlling test cases with TestNG's XML configuration and understanding how to parameterize tests with the @DataProvider annotation.

• CI/CD Integration: Execute tests from the command line, integrating your project with CI/CD tools.

• Logging with Log4j2: Set up log4j2 for effective logging, and create new logging files after each test run.

• Integration of Components: Integrate all components into a working framework while I teach you the principles behind each step.

🔍 What You Will Learn:

By the end of this course, you will be equipped to create an entire automated testing framework for web applications, complete with all necessary components and optimized for maintenance and reusability. The skills you acquire will not only enhance your current technical skill set but also prepare you for a future where we continuously update the course with new subjects to stay ahead of the curve.
