What you'll learn

Making small simple changes to existing code is usually something that junior programmers find easier compared to writing an entire project from scratch. A blank project is like an invisible wall, but once you overcome it and write your first 5 or 10 classes of working code, it gets easier.

In this course, Building a Java Test Automation Framework from Scratch, you'll learn how to create a framework from the ground up. First, you'll get hands-on experience on how to set up the necessary Java and other tools and how to pull everything together to create a proper working environment. Next, you'll explore how to write your first automated web API and UI tests with nothing but a blank file as a starting point. Finally, as the project grows, you'll discover how to properly refactor and scale your test automation effort by making it a multi-module Maven project.

When you’re finished with this course, you’ll have the skill and knowledge of starting automated test projects - a must-have skills of any senior test automation engineer.
