Page Object Pattern in Selenium Webdriver

Did you know that a recent poll revealed that 80% of QA Automation Engineers cannot run more than 100 functional tests daily, with 95% reliability? Furthermore, over 50% of these Automation Engineers struggle to run between 0 – 50 automated functional tests per day!

Functional test automation is a hard job. However, you can make your job much easier by learning a pattern known as the Page Object Pattern. The Page Object Pattern helps to resolve a lot of the problems that other automation techniques cannot. Making your test automation more stable as a result.

This course is designed to teach you how to properly code the Page Object Pattern using Selenium Webdriver with C#. 

However, all of the information here is equally applicable to any other functional testing tool because the Page Object Pattern is a universal principle that makes test automation more robust. Similar to other universal concepts such as Don’t Repeat Yourself or Single Responsibility Principle.

Therefore, if you know Object Oriented programming and a different functional automation tool, you can still comfortably follow along with all of the principles and patterns that I lay out in this course.

What my students are saying:

“As an Automation Engineer in the process of switching from Java to C#, I found this course interesting. By starting off with the basics of developing in C# and then progressing through unit testing and developing an automation framework, this course delivers everything you need to build a foundation to become an automation engineer. As if the development knowledge wasn’t enough, the students are provided with a section about Scrum and a wealth of references about the business value of automation. I have already recommended this course to my proteges as a way to reduce their learning curve and improve productivity.” -Shawn

“I’ve been searching for good Selenium C# videos since December 2014. I’ve been using the IDE but now it’s mandatory that I use webdriver. Just in the past few videos I have been provided with more useful information than I’ve discovered independently in 23 months. Thank you for creating this series” -Kay

“Excellent! Has been designed in a way that offers sufficient details at each step. At this point I feel confident about developing a robust automation framework following best practices. Great work. Thank you!.“ -Student
