Java Training Tutorials for Software Testing Engineers

UPDATES: Java training tutorial with flavor of Selenium Webdriver are live now :)

The boundaries between software testing and development are beginning to blur in today’s technological environment. Knowledge of programming language would not just help you gain more knowledge in the field of software testing but also makes you more competitive in today’s job market.
When I started with Selenium Training Tutorial, I assumed that every one is from programming background. Many of you have asked me that it is very difficult for you to learn Selenium without knowledge of a programming language.
Hence I decided to create video tutorial in java, especially designed for software test engineers. Those software test engineers who have little or no programming experience. Learning one programming language would almost always make it easy for you to learn any other language.
But there is one condition :)

I would begin with java training tutorials when Software Testing forum on Facebook reaches 2000 likes. and ONLY YOU can help me achieve this -


It would be impossible to reach this target without your help. Please share 
FaceBook Testing Forum with software test Engineers on your Facebook/LinkedIn/Twitter/<Other Social Media Networks>. At the time of writing this post. There are about 300 likes on testing forum. Reaching more “likes” will help me take training program to more users free of cost.
While we are on the journey to reach 2000 likes I will continue to create testing videos in other fields of software testing.
So would you help me reach 2k likes for FaceBook Testing Forum ?

Verify email confirmation using Selenium WebDriver

Note: If you are new to java and selenium then start with selenium java training videos .   How to Verify Email Confirmation Using Selenium 4 and JavaMail (2026 Guide) Email confirmation is a critical part of most registration flows — account activation, password reset, multi-factor authentication, and onboarding. Every automation engineer eventually faces the same challenge: How do you verify an email confirmation link inside a Selenium test without making it slow and flaky? The wrong instinct is to automate Gmail's UI with Selenium. It's fragile, slow, and breaks constantly. The right approach: Use Selenium for browser automation Use JavaMail (IMAP) to read the email directly Extract the confirmation link Continue the test in Selenium Why Not Automate Gmail UI With Selenium? Automating the Gmail UI means logging in, searching, clicking a message, and parsing content from a third-party interface that changes frequently. This leads to: Flaky...

Selenium Tutorial: Ant Build for Selenium Java project

Ant is a build tool which could be used to have your tests running either from command line or from Hudson CI tool. There is detailed documentation available for ant here but probably you need to know only a little part of it for you selenium tests. The essentials which are needed to know are: Project Target (ant execution point and collection of tasks) Tasks (could be as simple as compilation) And there would usually be following targets for Selenium tools - setClassPath - so that ant knows where you jar files are loadTestNG - so that you could use testng task in ant and use it to execute testng tests from ant init - created the build file clean - delete the build file compile - compiles the selenium tests run - executes the selenium tests Here is my project set up for ant -

Using xPath to reach parent of an element

Note: If you are new to java and selenium then start with selenium java training videos .   I prefer css locator over xPath but there are times when css locators don't fit requirement. One such requirement is when you want to navigate to parent element of an element and may be parent of parent and even more. Unfortunately css locators don't provide any mechanism to navigate to parent of an element. See this for more. Of late I came across a scenario when I wanted to click on a link depending upon the text in a text box. Herein parent of text box and parent of link were at the same location. More over there could have been many such combinations in application. Fortunately I just need to pick first such instance and Web Driver any way considers only first instance when multiple locators are found matching an element. Element in question is in following html - Here I need to click on highlighted anchor on the basis of input element (which is also hig...
