Test Automation Framework Architecture Course

Learn how to write a test automation framework for any system, step by step.

Many test automation solutions are written by less experienced developers and, as a result, are not structured well, hindering test automation progress. But there's one very simple yet effective way to structure a test automation framework: a 3-layer framework pattern. This pattern will allow you to write a test automation framework for any software system (Web UI, Rest API, Desktop, etc.) while minimizing maintenance costs.

My name is Alexander Pushkarev, and I am a Senior Software Engineer. I work in IT from about 2008, and for 7 years of my experience, I worked as a test automation specialist, leading teams and creating test automation from scratch for legacy and green-field projects. I had written several different frameworks, and I combined my architecture knowledge acquired during my development work into what I call a "3-layer framework," which is the focus of this course.

I use Java for coding examples, but the course itself isn't focused on any programming language, so if you use Python,. Net, or JavaScript, I am sure that 90% of the course material will be relevant.
