In Selenium, waiting strategies are crucial for ensuring robust test execution, as they allow scripts to dynamically adjust to varying load times and asynchronous operations. Window management is essential for testing web applications that interact with multiple browser windows or tabs, enabling testers to simulate real user interactions. In this course, you will learn a variety of functional testing strategies essential for any software tester's toolkit. You will start by understanding waiting strategies and learn to manage multiple windows and tabs. Additionally, you will be introduced to advanced interactions using the Robot class and the concepts of the Page Object Model and Page Factory, which facilitate cleaner and more maintainable test code. Next, you will get hands-on practice with dynamic elements on web pages. You will explore various waiting strategies, including both implicit and explicit waits, and see how these can be effectively applied in different scenarios. You will also gain proficiency in using Fluent Wait to handle more detailed configuration for your explicit waits. Finally, you will build skills in tab and window management techniques. You will practice techniques for opening and switching tabs, closing tabs, and quitting browsers to ensure clean session endings. Moreover, you will master the ability to take screenshots, both full-screen and of specific elements, to verify the visual accuracy of web applications during tests.
