This course helped me get an interview at Harvard University.

I have been trying to learn Selenium for ages, but I just wasn't getting it. Then I took a Python course, followed by this course. It was such fun! Because of this course, I was able to upload some coding samples navigating to my Github account, where I was navigating to the login screen and signing in using a test account I created.

The IT people at Harvard University liked it so much they are giving me an interview for a junior automated testing role. I would not be able to have been eligible without this course. ""

As title says Basics to Intermediate, it covers all

Very Good course, It covers everything from basic setup to best practices of writing solid tests. Best part is the use of unittest and nosetests which is very much required if we have lot of test cases to execute. course will not only help beginners to start learning the basic concepts but will also help intermediates to understand best practices and managing test suites. waiting for advanced section :)"

This course is very helpful!

By Rohit Dhawan on

Course will give you overview about what selenium does but would be more effective if the instructor teaches how to code using python to implement selenium webdriver. Not just drag and drop the python files to execute it.

By Appulal Sebastian on

Yes..This helps me to really understand the concepts. I am happy with this tutorials. Please update the contents whenever a new selenium version is available

videos are good but I'm unable to install firebug and firepath for firefox quantum.In google its showing firebug and firepath are not required for firefox quantum.Is it true?and will it work

By Hanna Bernyk on

Good material presentation, but some software used here has newer versions now, and they differ a bit.

By Matthew Lee on

Falls apart when talking about Page Object. You have tests returning current and next page but you did NOT validate what's returned. Then you said they "Passed!" You weren't validating the result, so of course they "passed!"

By Edmund Lin on

Great intro and buildup on basic selenium skills.

By Leo Walton on

Material is a bit out of date . Should support later versions of Python rather than persisting with 2.7 . Current Selenium IDE does not support Python export so the skill level to create Python from the java export is needed .

I don't normally write reviews, and this will definitely be my first on Udemy, but I just had to say "thank you" to Mr. Akoua, and to highly recommend this course to anyone needing Selenium with Python.Obviously, the course was clear, well structured, well paced, and the content, as well as the content delivery, was bar none. But on top of all that, from Section 12 (Organizing and Refactoring Code) and onward, lessons were super-charged, quite advanced, and unbelievably FUN!I just can't believe how far I've come in the past 2 months alone, and I am so grateful and thrilled by not only the hyper-accelerated progression in my career thereof, but also the fact that I am having fun testing again. Thank you so much!

Very knowledgeable and organized instructor. This is a great starter course for someone who is just beginning in automation testing. I knew almost nothing, but with a little Python background, was able to pick up the basics and expand from there. The instructor teaches you to use a very manageable and scalable framework.

By Joyce Chidiadi on

Straight to the testing skills needed. You need have some python programming knowledge first. Before getting this course, brush up on your python skills or learn python 101 first. Overall, great content.

By Svetlana Siplivaya on

For me this course was somewhat challenging because my programming skills are not strong enough. The course organized very well. The instructor, Gabiste, is very helpful. It was easy to follow him. He provided all the code and materials.
