Software Automation Testing - Classroom

The world is moving towards Automation more rapidly than you think. With large complex software applications coming into the market, the industry is now emphasising using Automated Testing over the manual. Prepare yourself for the next trend in software testing and secure a high-paying job as Automated Tester.

The LSET Software Automation Testing course focuses on building your skillsets with the latest testing techniques and tools. This course will teach black-box and white-box testing, automated testing, web & mobile testing, and formal testing theory and methods.

In this course, you will get introduced to Selenium IDE, RC, WebDriver and Data Driven Testing. This course will prepare you to implement your automation testing framework and build test plans, test suites, and test analysis reports. You will develop properties and assertions in code to facilitate automated test generation and create pre-conditions for methods to enable formal proof of correctness.

The course will begin with fundamental principles and processes of software testing. And then move on to creating test cases and running them using an automated testing tool. You will build an understanding of various black-box and white-box testing techniques and put this understanding into practice, creating practical sets of test cases called test suites to correctly exercise software for defect finding. By the end of this course, you will have a greater understanding of testability requirements and build skillsets for automated testing along with fault-finding techniques.

Technologies Covered

Selenium Automation Tool: Selenium is a popular open-source automated testing suite for web applications across different browsers and platforms. It provides a single interface which allows writing test scripts in various programming languages like Ruby, Java, NodeJS, PHP, Perl, Python, and C#, among others. It comes with Selenium WebDriver, also known as Selenium 2.0, which executes test scripts through browser-specific drivers. It consists of API, Library, Driver, and Framework.

Cucumber: Cucumber is an open-source software testing tool allowing us to run automated acceptance tests in a behaviour-driven development (BDD) style. Cucumber reads the specifications written in plain English text files called feature files. It scans them for test scenarios and runs those scenarios against the software we want to test. The feature files must follow a set of rules called Gherkin. Gherkin is a business-readable, domain-specific language that you use to provide test steps and expected outcomes to Cucumber.

JUnit: JUnit is a unit testing framework for the Java programming language widely used for test-driven development. JUnit is used to write and run repeatable automated tests.
