Description

Selenium test automation has always been a bit hard to learn, has limited capabilities, and yields less than desirable results. In my Robot Framework courses, I teach how to use a free, pre-existing framework to make Selenium test automation much easier.

Now that the wildly popular UiPath RPA platform offers test automation features, Selenium test automation has never been easier or more powerful!!!

All UiPath skills are HOT. I received a quote from a vendor recently and they are asking $207/hr. for their resources. Wow!

In this succinct & powerful course, 4-time UiPath MVP Bryan Lamb will provide you with the most critical UiPath skills for test automation including:

UiPath platform installation
UiPath Studio orientation
Compare UiPath’s test automation vs. Selenium
Show similarities & differences between an RPA process and a test automation project
Test case structure
Executing automated tests locally and via the Orchestrator server
Sharing reusable automation workflows between RPA and test automation (this is HUGE!)
How to easily run tests on different browsers
How to easily create, publish, and run POWERFUL automated tests, and even PARAMETERIZE and SCHEDULE them to run any time you want on multiple machines concurrently without having to rely on a separate CI tool like Azure DevOps or Jenkins

My goal is to help you get up and running with UiPath test automation faster than any other method, so you can start saving time & money at your company, maximize the value of your UiPath tools & shared workflows, and level up your career!

I will continuously add more content to this course over time. You'll be notified via email every time I make updates. Your satisfaction is SO important to me, so please let me know if there are any specific topics you'd like me to add to the course.

Who this course is for:

Manual testers who want to learn test automation with UiPath
UiPath RPA developers who want to learn test automation
Selenium Webdriver test automation engineers wanting a better & faster tool
