In this lesson, students will learn about implementing design patterns in Selenium projects. Specifically, they will learn about the page object model (POM) design pattern. The following topics will be covered:
Overview of design patterns in automation testing: An introduction to design patterns in automation testing, including the importance of design patterns, and the different design patterns available.
Page Object Model (POM): An in-depth discussion of the POM design pattern, including the purpose of the POM pattern, and how it helps to improve the maintainability and readability of test code.
Implementing POM: A step-by-step guide on how to implement the POM design pattern in a Selenium project, including information on how to create page objects, implement the POM pattern in test code, and reuse components across multiple test cases.
Benefits of POM: An overview of the benefits of using the POM design pattern in a Selenium project, including improved code readability, increased maintainability, and easier testing of changes to the application under test.
Best practices for implementing POM: A discussion of best practices for implementing the POM design pattern in a Selenium project, including information on creating clear and concise page objects, and avoiding duplication in the implementation of the POM pattern.
By the end of this lesson, students will have a solid understanding of the POM design pattern, and will be able to implement this pattern in their Selenium projects. They will also have a good understanding of the benefits of using design patterns in automation testing, and will be able to apply best practices for implementing the POM pattern in their projects.
