Overview
Extend your team knowledge with Automate The Planet instructors’ training modules. Your team can increase its knowledge on how to write automated tests for web, desktop, mobile, or API apps using WebDriver, Appium, SpecFlow, and other industry-leading tools/frameworks.
During this master class, we will first discuss the core characteristics and requirements of our framework. We will use a professionally written high-class test automation framework as a baseline.
We will start writing the core projects/feature and add additional features piece by piece. We will continuously elaborate on why we design the code the way it is (pros and cons) during this process. We will look into different designs and compare them. We will have some theoretical part discussing design patterns and best practices in programming/ test automation. While we build a specific feature, you will have exercises to finish a particular part or extend it further from time to time.
You will have access to all slides, video recordings, and the source code of what we built.
The master class is designed so that we can adapt some of the topics based on the participants’ interests. For example, we can discuss much more mobile test automation or test results reporting integrations if these topics are important to you.

ITCE is exclusively partnering with Automate The Planet to popularize the topic of automation testing by helping individuals in their upskilling process. Automate The Planet has years of experience in the field of test automation, which has resulted in the development of the modern framework BELLATRIX that can be used to create automated tests in C# for web, mobile, desktop, and API.
