Description
This course uses the latest versions of Cypress (v11+) & Cucumber BDD [October 2022]
Why Cypress?
Cypress is a JavaScript End to End Testing Framework that is very popular and is rapidly growing in popularity due to its great features and ease of use.
Why Cucumber BDD?
Cucumber BDD (Behaviour-driven development) much like 'Cypress' is a technology which is growing in popularity by the day and is used by organisations across the globe. Cucumber BDD captures test requirements in a simplistic manner, making it easy not only for 'Non technical parties/people' to understand scenario's which have been automated, but also assists the process of building effective automation frameworks and tests.
Why this course?
This course is designed to be quick, effective, efficient and easy to follow. I have been teaching for several years on Udemy with over 6 highly successful courses to date. I have refined this course using proven teaching techniques. This course is carefully structured from start to finish and I provide downloadable code examples after each coding lecture.
What does this course cover?
You will learn how to rapidly create simplistic and sophisticated Automated UI Tests using Cypress.
Learn the importance of Cucumber BDD (Behaviour-driven development).
Learn how to effectively and effortlessly capture test (Scenario) requirements using Cucumber BDD.
Gain knowledge of 'Gherkin', Cucumber's language parser.
Know why and when to use specific Gherkin Keywords such as 'Feature', 'Given', 'When', 'And', 'Then' and more!
Learn the differences between 'Scenario's' & 'Scenario Outlines'.
Learn how to simplify tests using specific Cucumber BDD Features such as the 'Background' keyword.
Gain the knowledge to insert and modify test data directly within Feature File(s).
Learn how to correctly map Test Requirements to actions using Cucumber Step Definitions and Cypress.
Become familiar with 'Tags' and learn how we can target and execute specific tests (Scenario's).
Understand the importance of Design Patterns such as Page Object Modelling (POM).
Learn best practises such as DRY (Don't Repeat Yourself).
Learn how to create Sophisticated Reports (HTML Reports, JSON Reports, Multi Reports) and more!
Learn how to leverage 'Hooks' and 'Custom Commands'.
Learn Continuous Integration using Jenkins and explain why this is very useful.
