I think you will agree with me when I say:

It’s REALLY hard to find good resources to teach you Selenium WebDriver.

Or is it?

When I first started doing test automation with Selenium many years ago, I had a tough time finding good resources to help me improve my skills. There were many bad resources, even more mediocre ones, and overall very few that were actually helpful.

So I took action…

When I found good resources, I saved them. I’ve been doing this since 2012…

And I still do this today. Regularly revisit and refactor my lists.

Here’s the kicker:

The result is a fantastic list of the most influential Selenium WebDriver resources that you will ever find.

There are certain resources will skyrocket your test automation with Selenium.

In this post, I will outline a list of the most influential resources to help you improve your test automation using Selenium WebDriver.

The 8 most impactful books that I read to improve my test automation skills

Many years ago someone called me a guru at using QuickTest Pro for functional test automation since I knew how to do everything with that tool. Which was ironic, because as a “guru” of QTP, I was only able to maintain about 10 functional tests with any kind of reliability.

Today, I am capable of coding a functional Graphical User Interface test in under 30 minutes with a guarantee of 99 percent reliability. I can also execute hundreds of functional tests every single day. I’m not saying this to brag; I’m stating it to convey that there is a secret to such a transformation.

That secret was reading books.

If you want to truly master test automation and put a smile on the face of your managers, you must read. Every book you read will be an extra weapon enhancing your test automation arsenal.

Below is a list of the most impactful books that I read to improve my test automation skills.

1.Clean Code: A Handbook of Agile Software Craftsmanship by Robert C. Martin

Price: $34.99

Author: Robert C. Martin

Topics Learned: Names and functions, objects, data structures, error handling, unit testing

Although this is not a book specifically for test automation, it’s one that every code writer should own. Out of all the books that I have read, this one has caused one of the largest improvements to my functional test automation.

Bob Martin conveys a ton of coding best practices that anyone writing code should implement, even you, Automation Engineers. Furthermore, Uncle Bob tells the best stories. Some of the topics that are covered include how to:

– Write meaningful names

– Write good functions

– Handle comments

– Deal with objects and data structures

– Do proper error handling

– Write unit tests

2.Software Test Automation

Price: $14.20

Authors: Mark Fewster and Dorothy Graham

Topics Learned: Automation testing principles and techniques, metrics

I recently reopened it to help me with a presentation and then I realized that this book is pure gold. Even though it was written in 1999, so much of it still applies. By reading this book, you will gain 30 years of test automation experience, seriously. To this day, I see people repeating all the mistakes that are listed in Software Test Automation. Some things you will learn are:

– Capture replay is not test automation

– Building maintainable tests

– Metrics

3.Head First Design Patterns: A Brain-Friendly Guide

Price: $36.12

Authors: Eric Freeman and Elisabeth Robson

Topics Learned: Factory pattern, strategy pattern, object-oriented design principles

It’s funny how the books that have had the most impact on my automated functional testing were books on software development. At some point, all Automation Engineers reach a place where automation skills are no longer their Achilles heel. Rather, it’s a lack of understanding of good Object Oriented design and patterns to deal with common problems faced by all of us.

Yes, I was a QTP guru according to some, but I was not a great Test Automation Engineer. This book helped me to surpass any such impasse by covering fundamental design patterns such as:

– Factory Pattern – excellent for WebDriver initializations

– Strategy Pattern – excellent for different kinds of behaviors

– Other great object-oriented design principles such as “programming to an interface and not an implementation”

4.Selenium Design Patterns by Dima Kovalenko

Price: $31.99

Author: Dima Kovalenko

Topics Learned: Automation design patterns

– And much more

5.Experiences of Test Automation by Dorothy Graham and Mark Fewster

Price: $44.81

Authors: Dorothy Graham and Mark Fewster

Topics Learned: Test automation techniques and issues, database automation, regression testing

This is an excellent resource for test automation. Dorothy and Mark have a lot of experience and their advice can help you to overcome many hurdles when dealing with test automation. Even today, I still see people making a lot of mistakes that could be overcome by reading this resource.

You will learn some valuable techniques, including:

– How to prioritize automation

– What to automate

– How to automate

– Management issues

– Technical issues

– Database automation

– Regression testing in production

– Automating the testing of complex government systems.

6.Agile Testing by Lisa Crispin and Janet Gregory

Price: $46.10

Authors: Lisa Crispin and Janet Gregory

7.Refactoring: Improving the Design of Existing Code by Martin Fowler and Kent Beck

Price: $41.07

Authors: Martin Fowler and Kent Beck

Topics Learned: Refactoring, organizing data

I don’t care what anyone says. A good Test Automation Engineer is a good programmer.

Now most of us may never work for Google developing Google Chrome, but we should have the capability to understand and write good code good code. More specifically, we should have the capability to design a maintainable, robust, and flexible test automation framework. Refactoring is the key to creating a flexible system.

The problem is that most Test Automation Engineers spend the majority of their time creating new automated functional tests while their old code rots. After a year of development, their automation grinds to a halt. In this book, you will learn:

– Bad smells in code

– The importance of refactoring

– Organizing data

– Making methods simpler

My 2 favorite Selenium WebDriver Framework Codes

resources for selenium automation testing framework

Did you know that there is an abundance of incredible code out in the world that has already been developed? You are not the first person to try and build an Enterprise level test automation framework. People have been doing this for decades.

This is going to be a list of all Selenium Webdriver frameworks that I have found through my years of development. Take a look at everything to gather some ideas for your efforts.

1.Golem Automated Testing Framework

Author: Brian Kitchener

Topics Learned: Selenium Webdriver, GUI Testing, RESTful Testing, Sauce Labs

This framework is one of the most feature-rich frameworks that I have ever seen in the industry. It helps you to build GUI tests, RESTful tests, and tests against Windows applications and runs all of these things locally or in the cloud. I spent many hours looking at this code and learned a lot.

The creator has some excellent strategies for making very readable tests. Furthermore, he creates great logs, screenshots, and video recordings to help debug the failed tests. Sadly, I cannot get it to run consistently, but it’s a great place to start building from. Also, it hasn’t been updated in awhile. I did fork my own copy and cleaned up all the compilation issues if you want to take it for a spin.

2.Automate The Planet Frameworks

Author: Anton Angelov

Topics Learned: Selenium Webdriver, Test Studio, C#

Angelov has a ton of useful code that you can look at. He applies different design patterns to his code to show you how it would look. For example, you can see how to use the Strategy Design Pattern, the Facade Design Pattern, Page Object Model, and Advanced Page Object Model. You can cycle through it and decide which code you want to reuse. The code will help you to get started on your own test automation.

Top 3 BDD Frameworks

1.SpecFlow BDD Automation

Author: SpecFlow

Topics Learned: C#, Selenium Webdriver, BDD

SpecFlow is one of the few C# BDD frameworks out there, which automatically makes it a highly desirable automation tool for you to use in your development projects. This framework helps you to build acceptance tests using business readable specifications. You use the Gherkin syntax to build tests that read close to plain English. Therefore, these tests are readable by the developers, testers, and business personnel, and in theory, serve as living documentation that can replace requirements.

2.Serenity

Authors: John Ferguson Smart and others

Topics Learned: Java, Selenium, BDD

Serenity is a BDD framework that works with Java and Selenium WebDriver. Serenity also offers functionality such as:

– Providing webdriver management

– Taking screenshots

– Running tests in parallel

– Facilitating Jira integration

I have not used it, but I know some people who do and they all say fantastic things about Serenity. It makes me a bit jealous that it doesn’t integrate with my Visual Studio.

3.Gauge

Author: ThoughtWorks

Topics Learned: Test automation

Gauge is a test automation framework designed by the team that created Selenium WebDriver. In their words, “Gauge is a light-weight cross-platform test automation tool with the ability to author test cases in the business language.”

Although I haven’t explored the framework myself, it does strike me as interesting since it was created by the Selenium guys. They do seem to create resources that change the world. It’s a program I will look at in the future, and you should as well.

Unit Testing Frameworks

NUnit

Authors: Charlie Poole, Rob Prouse, and others

Topics Learned: C#, Unit testing

NUnit is definitely the most popular C# unit testing framework. It’s extremely active on Github with tons of contributors and commits. You can use this framework to do unit testing and also acceptance testing with a tool like Selenium WebDriver. It’s pretty easy to use as well as being robust. The documentation is also good and there are tons of online resources to help.

Acceptance Testing

Fitnesse

Author: Various

Topics Learned: Selenium Webdriver, C#, Page Object Model

FitNesse is an acceptance testing framework that is language agnostic. One great thing about the program is that you can create and edit requirements through the web browser, which makes it simple for everyone involved with the project to interact with this tool. “Using acceptance tests allows for better collaboration because now the stakeholders can design the documentation that becomes testable”. This program is a good way to improve communication between business personnel and programmers.

wow really Very informatic article
As the testing medium is catered as an open source framework, the developers, who use this eminent platform, can change the code and make it better. This is why the platform is a very popular medium used in several industries via trained personnel. I got some information about through my friend she suggested me one online institute name.
Thank you

Hi Nikolay. Love the C# Selenium class and all the great code. I found a good reference for drawing on an HTML 5 canvas, which worked for me: https://blog.bahwancybertek.com/html5-canvas-automation-using-selenium-webdriver/
Here’s my snippet:
[Test]
public void DrawQuiz()
{
_driver.Navigate().GoToUrl(“https://compendiumdev.co.uk/selenium/gui_user_interactions.html”);
IWebElement canv = _wait.Until(ExpectedConditions.ElementIsVisible(By.XPath(“//*[@id=’canvas’]”)));

var draw = _actions
.ClickAndHold(canv)
.MoveByOffset(7,9)
.MoveByOffset(0,-10)
.Release(canv)
.Build();

draw.Perform();
}
