Description

Hey there! I decided when creating this course I wanted it structured in a way that you could learn some important concepts a day at a time. I've structured this course to be taken day by day, to progressively teach you the skills you would need to learn test automation. Most sections I have tried limiting them to roughly an hour a day, in order to not overwhelm or throw too much at you at once. The most important things you will learn areBasic JavaScriptUI test automation with playwrightAPI testing with PlaywrightGit repository managementCI/CD using GitHub actionsWhen getting started, ill also show you everything you will need to download and get started. I also created an entire documentation website to use as a supplement to this course and to help you move forward faster. When creating my scripts and notes for this course, I thought it would be incredibly helpful to be able to follow along using some kind of documentation.I also was completely new to video editing. So you may notice some of the newer videos getting slightly better as the course continues.If you have a desire to move forward in your career in the quality engineering realm, I believe this is a great course for you!
