Welcome!

This blog is aimed at Software QA Engineers who know nothing about test automation.  I was just like you six months ago.  After much trial and error, I have successfully automated many tests, and I would like to share what I learned with you and hopefully save you some time and trouble!

In the next few weeks I will be covering:


  • Why automate?
  • When to use automated tests and when to use manual tests
  • Introduction to Java
  • Setting up Eclipse
  • Setting up JUnit
  • Introduction to WebDriver
  • Setting up Maven
  • Simple Maven commands
  • Setting up Sauce
  • Setting up Bamboo
  • Creating your Base Test
  • Introduction to JQuery
  • Troubleshooting navigation issues
