Synopsis

Automated Web Testing is a step by step guide for the web application testers who want to try their hands at automated testing. It provides step by step instructions for setting up the Automation Framework from scratch. The framework is quite generic and as such can be applied to most website projects. This book concentrates on the ‘practical side’ of automated testing rather than the ‘theoretical side’. It includes complete listings of the automation code for the demo website that has been set up for you to test against. The code listings explain the logic of individual tests and generic functions. The book covers:

• Start with an overview of a typical web application architecture.
• Set up the environment for automation. The software we will use is open source and freeware!
• Learn techniques to identify elements on web pages.
• Set up the Automation Framework and Object Repository from scratch.
• Add important features to the Automation Framework such as reporting result comparisons, saving screenshots, logging information to a Console and CSV files etc.
• Automate data entry, verification and negative tests using the demo website.
• Automate tabular and summary reports.
• Automate Data Driven Testing using Microsoft Excel data sources followed by adding more useful features to the Automation Framework.
• Cross Browser Testing using Firefox, Chrome, Internet Explorer, Edge, Safari and Opera web browsers.
• Automate Web Services Testing using a demo web service.
• Perform advanced user interactions like Drag-and-Drop, Context Click, executing JavaScripts etc. in web pages.
