Selenium Webdriver with PYTHON from Scratch + Frameworks

Mac users automatically have python in the path after installation, so you need not modify system variables; use python3 to verify via which python and post issues if needed.

Create your first Python program by printing to the console, add comments, and declare variables with no explicit types while exploring PyCharm's indentation and basic coding standards.

discover python types: tuples are immutable, lists are mutable; use round brackets for tuples and square brackets for lists. explore dictionaries as key-value stores with curly braces; access by keys.

Create dictionaries at runtime by starting with an empty dictionary and adding key-value pairs. Print and read values by key, and apply this method to Excel-driven data and frameworks.

Learn how to define Python classes as blueprints, add methods and variables, and create objects to access data and perform operations, illustrated with a calculator example.

Explore strings in Python, including indexing, slicing, concatenation, and substring checks with in. Learn to split by dot, trim via strip variants, and extract substrings for automation testing validations.

Learn to read and write text files in Python by opening a file, using read to print contents, writing back data, and closing the file to avoid memory leaks.

Explore how to raise exceptions and use assertions in Python to fail tests when conditions like cart item counts are not met; compare raise vs assertion.

Learn how to use Python's try and except blocks to handle exceptions, log errors, and prevent tests from failing when missing files or pop up appear.

Master invoking the Chrome browser with Selenium WebDriver in Python, including imports and interpreter setup. Understand Chrome driver service as the middleman between WebDriver and Chrome.

Identify element attributes using developer tools and apply selenium locators (name, id, class, css, xpath) to fill a form, type data, and click to submit.

Learn to locate web elements with css selectors and name locators, build xpath for any element, and validate submit messages using assertions in selenium with Python.

Learn to identify and click web elements with xpath and css selectors in Selenium WebDriver, using id, name, and class attributes, and validate locators with the Chropath plugin.
