2. Environment Setup

3. Writing Test Cases

4. Executing Test Cases

5. Advanced Testing Techniques

1. Introduction to Automated Testing

Objective:

To understand the basics of automated testing and its importance in software


development.

Key Concepts:

• Automated Testing: A process of using tools to execute pre-scripted tests on


software.

• Types of Automated Testing: Unit, Integration, Regression, System Testing.

• Benefits:

o Saves time compared to manual testing.

o Increases accuracy by reducing human error.

o Enables continuous testing in CI/CD pipelines.

• Tools: Selenium, JUnit, TestNG, Cypress.

2. Environment Setup

Objective:

To set up the necessary tools and frameworks for automated testing.

Tools Required:

1. Programming Language: Python or Java.


2. IDE: Visual Studio Code, PyCharm, or IntelliJ IDEA.

3. Testing Tool: Selenium WebDriver.

4. Browser Drivers: ChromeDriver or GeckoDriver (for Firefox).

Step-by-Step Instructions:

1. Install Python or Java:

o Download Python from python.org or Java from java.com.

2. Install an IDE:

o Download Visual Studio Code (code.visualstudio.com) or PyCharm


(jetbrains.com).

3. Install Selenium WebDriver (for Python):

o Open the terminal/command prompt and run:

pip install selenium

4. Download ChromeDriver:

o Visit chromedriver.chromium.org and download the version matching your


Chrome browser.

5. Verify Installation:

o Open your IDE and write the following script to check Selenium:

from selenium import webdriver

driver = webdriver.Chrome()

driver.get("https://www.google.com")

print("Selenium setup successful!")

driver.quit()

3. Writing Test Cases

Objective:

To create and execute automated test scripts.


Step-by-Step Instructions:

1. Basic Script for Login Testing:

o Open your IDE and create a new Python file (e.g., login_test.py).

o Copy and paste the following code:

from selenium import webdriver

from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By

# Setup WebDriver

driver = webdriver.Chrome()

driver.get("https://example.com/login")

# Perform login

driver.find_element(By.ID, "username").send_keys("test_user")

driver.find_element(By.ID, "password").send_keys("password123")

driver.find_element(By.ID, "loginButton").click()

# Verify login success

assert "Dashboard" in driver.title, "Login failed!"

print("Login test executed successfully!")

driver.quit()

2. Exercise:

o Modify the script to perform login on a different website.

o Add a test case for invalid credentials.


4. Test Execution

Objective:

To execute automated test cases and analyze the results.

Step-by-Step Instructions:

1. Run the Test Case:

o Open a terminal in the IDE and navigate to the file location.

o Execute the script by typing:

python login_test.py

2. Analyze Results:

o Check for any assertion failures or errors in the console output.

3. Exercise:

o Add print statements to log each step.

o Write a test to verify the presence of a specific element on the webpage.

5. Advanced Testing Techniques

Objective:

To learn data-driven testing and error handling.

Step-by-Step Instructions:

1. Data-Driven Testing using CSV:

o Create a file test_data.csv with the following content:

username,password

test_user1,password1

test_user2,password2

o Update your Python script:


import csv

from selenium import webdriver

from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By

driver = webdriver.Chrome()

# Open the CSV file

with open('test_data.csv', 'r') as file:

reader = csv.DictReader(file)

for row in reader:

driver.get("https://example.com/login")

driver.find_element(By.ID, "username").send_keys(row['username'])

driver.find_element(By.ID, "password").send_keys(row['password'])

driver.find_element(By.ID, "loginButton").click()

print(f"Test executed for user: {row['username']}")

driver.quit()

2. Handling Exceptions:

o Add try-except blocks to handle errors:

try:

driver.find_element(By.ID, "loginButton").click()

except Exception as e:

print(f"Error: {e}")

3. Exercise:

o Write a test script to test multiple inputs for a search bar.
