A SkillsCast for this session is not available.
The Selenium WebDriver API is a very powerful tool when it comes to browser automation. Its most common use is for check/test automation, but it has a lot more to offer a tester then this.
He will cover the basics:
- Opening different browsers
- Selecting locators
- Interacting with the web page
He will then explore what you can do with this knowledge and create some tools that can be used throughout your testing approaches.
Attendees will be encouraged to code along, but it isn’t required.
If you do want to code along you will need:
- Windows (VM ok).
- Visual Studio, Express version is free: http://www.visualstudio.com/products/visual-studio-express-vs
