Automation Testing

Automation testing is the use of tools and scripts to automatically run test cases without manual effort. It speeds up testing, improves coverage, and ensures consistent results across software updates.

Imagine running 1,000 test cases in minutes instead of days — that’s the power of automation. You’ll learn how to design robust frameworks, integrate them into pipelines, and scale testing for enterprise projects.

What You’ll Learn

• Automation fundamentals: why automation matters, when to use it, and its ROI.
• Building Selenium frameworks: from locators to page object models.
• API automation with RestSharp: validating endpoints, chaining requests.
• Behavior-driven development with ReqNroll: writing human-readable test cases.
• CI/CD pipelines: integrating tests with Azure DevOps and GitHub Actions.
• Cross-browser testing: ensuring apps work in Chrome, Edge, Safari, and more.

Tools You’ll Use

• Visual Studio & Rider IDEs; building automation frameworks in C#.
• Selenium WebDriver; browser automation.
• RestSharp; API automation in .NET.
• ReqNroll/SpecFlow; behavior-driven testing.
• Azure DevOps/GitHub; integrating tests in CI/CD pipelines.

Career Outcomes

• Automation Engineer; designing and maintaining test frameworks.
• SDET (Software Development Engineer in Test); bridging development and QA.
• QA Automation Specialist; leading automation efforts in agile teams.
