Practical 7

Practical Title:
To understand automated testing concepts and Selenium architecture for web
applications

Theory:

1. What is Automated Testing?

Automated testing is a technique where test cases are executed using tools/scripts instead
of manual effort.

It helps in faster and more accurate testing of applications.


__________________________________________________________

2. What is Selenium?

Selenium is an open-source tool used for automating web browsers.

It is widely used for testing web applications.


__________________________________________________________

3. Selenium Components:
Selenium IDE: Record and playback tool (beginner-friendly)
Selenium WebDriver: Automates browser actions using code (most powerful)
Selenium Grid: Runs tests on multiple machines/browsers simultaneously
__________________________________________________________

4. Selenium Architecture:
Selenium works in this flow:

Test Script → WebDriver → Browser → Application

Test script sends commands

WebDriver communicates with browser

Browser performs actions on web application


__________________________________________________________
Procedure:

Step 1: Install Selenium and required dependencies

Step 2: Setup WebDriver

Step 3: Write a simple test script


Step 4: Perform actions (click, input, etc.)
Step 5: Execute the test script

Activity / Task:
Task 1:
Write a Selenium script to open a website and perform basic actions.
Code:

package [Link];
import [Link];
import [Link];
import [Link];
public class TestSelenium {
public static void main(String[] args) throws InterruptedException
{
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();
[Link]("[Link]
[Link](2000);
[Link]([Link]("q")).sendKeys("Selenium DevOps
Test");
[Link](3000);
[Link]();
}
}
__________________________________________
Task 2:
List advantages of automated testing over manual testing.

• Faster execution
• More accurate
• Reusable scripts
• Saves time and effort
• Supports continuous testing

__________________________________________
Advantages:
1. Reduces human error
2. Speeds up testing
3. Improves test coverage
4. Supports CI/CD
5. Efficient for repetitive tasks

Challenges:
1. Requires coding knowledge
2. Maintenance of test scripts
3. Initial setup time
