Steps to building a testing frameworkAbout This VideoBuild a UI automation framework on Java from scratchCreate a real-life, working, and consistent solution for UI automation with JavaExplore different automation framework typesIn DetailTest automation, a formalized testing process, can automate repetitive but necessary tasks that would be difficult to do manually.This video is a practical step-by-step guide to developing UI test automation frameworks from scratch, and is targeted at Java developers. We'll explore Web Driver, Appium (for mobile applications), and Cucumber-JVM. While working through the video, you will master the step-by-step test automation framework development process and see how it changes the shape of tests. At the end you will have a vision of what a framework is, what it looks like, and what items should be covered at the beginning of test automation development. Show and hide more
