Must Watch - Prerequisite0:52
Identify prerequisites for this Java-based course, requiring basic Java knowledge and testing experience, and outline issues with reading property and Excel files using associated libraries.
Lecture 3 - Course Content1:31

What is Owner Library?1:14
Explore the owner library, an external tool to read properties from configuration files and drive test settings like browser and screenshots, reducing boilerplate code.
Conventional Approach & Problems3:01
Clumsy Test Code1:12
Explore clumsy Java test code with manual type conversions, string handling, and list construction, verbose comparisons that lead to errors, and see how cleaner tests emerge next week.
Owner - The Saviour8:16
Learn how to add Gradle dependencies, define a framework config interface, and access remote config properties across platforms using system properties and minimal boilerplate.
Let's Fix Some Issues & Explore Thrilling Features5:08
Key and Default Value Annotations4:05
Learn how key annotations map configuration values and how default values prevent missing data, with quotes guiding library conversions to the correct type in tests.

Zerocell Introduction - Problems with Apache POI4:59
Explore Zero Cell, a fast Excel handling library that solves Apache POI challenges like null pointer exceptions and type conversion, reducing boilerplate code for test automation.
Excel to POJO Mapping & Converters15:03
Map Excel data to POJO using zerocell annotations and custom converters. Learn to convert strings to booleans, integers, local dates, and standardize phone numbers for reliable test data.
Effortless Excel Reading3:31
Integration with Data provider6:52
Selecting Iterations for a Testcase4:15
Learn to select test iterations by filtering data with streams and a data provider, and customize runtime data via mutable classes and reflection-based injection.

Bonus : Most Popular Converter1:35

Fixture Factory - Introduction1:12
Discover fixture factory and how to create modules with templates by defining rules using the official GitHub repository. Generate objects based on those templates in your code.
JSON to POJO Mapping3:32
Generate Object Using Fixture Factory11:22
Generate employee objects efficiently with fixture factory by creating templates, defining field rules, and using random and unique random values to validate data and produce multiple test objects.
Fixture Factory+Rest Assured+Data Provider11:12
Fixture Factory with Java Faker2:37
Explore fixture factory with Java Faker to generate fake names and random values, build reusable methods and lists, and run data-driven tests using the library.
Address Template Usage in Employee Template4:39
Create and implement an address template for the employee template using a template-based approach with the Fiction Factory tool, enabling inheritance and override of rules.
POJO Factory - Optimizing existing code6:47
Optimize pojo creation with a generic factory that returns employee or address fixtures via a single static getObject method, using generics, casting, and reflection for cleaner code.

Requirements

Basic knowledge of Java and Test Automation is preferred.
Basic testing process knowledge
Experience in working with Excel, Property files, POJO in Java is preferred

Description

Java have lot of amazing external libraries which can help us to write clean code. I have covered 4 of those amazing libraries in detail and how to use them in real time projects.

1. Owner - To resolve the problems we face while reading property files.

Owner Library can help to reduce all the boiler plate code we write while reading property files. No need to do Exception Handling. It comes bundled with some amazing features like DefaultValue on missing attributes, Key Annotation for Mapping and much more.

2. Zerocell - To resolve the problems we face while reading excel sheet. Excel Reading - No more a pain

We normally use Apache poi library for Excel Reading in Java. However we need to write lot of code to get the work done. Working with different data types like Integer, date, comma separated string in excel is again a big problem. Zero cell provides solution for all the boiler plate code we write.

Reusable Converter classes helps us to maintain the business logic away from tests.

3. Fixture Factory - Generate POJO's for you rest assured tests using Template - Easy and Fast.

We normally generate POJO's for testing rest services. However we spend so much of time in passing the values to the POJO fields. Fixture Factory helps us to create objects based on template and can create 1000's of objects on the fly.

4. Lombok - Say Good Bye to Verbosity.

Implement these libraries in your company and stun your colleagues !
