Lynda – Learning Selenium

Selenium is one of the most popular tools for testing web-based applications. It allows QA engineers to write and automate tests across many different browsers and operating systems, without a special scripting language. This course introduces Selenium to new users, covering installation and basic use cases. Find out how to set up the test-writing framework, WebDriver, and Selenium Grid, which allows you to distribute the testing load and run tests against a remote server. Learn best practices to write effective tests using variables and functions, and to organize tests into suites that can scale over time. Instructor Meaghan Lewis-a QA engineer at GitHub-also explains the test pyramid paradigm, which details an ideal way to balance unit, integration, and UI testing.
Topics include:

Setting up Selenium WebDriver
Distributing the testing load with Selenium grid
Setting up a hub and nodes
Writing clean test code
Organizing a test suite
