Use Python to Create a Web Testing Bot
Create the Python Test Fixture with Selenium to load the driver and access the Web Page.
Check the links on the WebPage for valid Hypertext References with Selenium.
Use Selenium and Pytest to check the form submission process.
By the end of this project, you will use python packages selenium with pytest to test a website by using a program to interact with a webpage and observe results. A Web Bot is used to automatically access web sites with no human interaction. A web bot can access elements, click on buttons, and do anything a user may do. It can be used for many purposes, such as responding to a person visiting a site, gathering useful information from a site, and for integration testing of use cases on a completed web application. A completed web application assumes Unit tests have been used to test the individual components in the web application. Note: This course works best for learners who are based in the North America region. We’re currently working on providing the same experience in other regions.
