✅ Work with Multiple Tabs & Windows
✅ Handle Alerts & Pop-ups
✅ Use Waits (implicit_wait, explicit_wait)
✅ Automate File Uploads & Downloads
📚 Practice Websites:
The Internet (for Selenium testing)
Demo Automation Practice
📌 Step 4: Selenium with Python Testing Frameworks
✅ PyTest – Writing Test Cases (pytest test_file.py)
✅ Unittest – In-Built Testing in Python
✅ Allure Reports – Generate Test Reports
✅ Headless Browsing (Run Selenium without opening the browser)
📚 Learn from:
PyTest Docs
YouTube: "PyTest Selenium Tutorial"
📌 Step 5: CI/CD Integration for Test Automation
✅ Connect Selenium Tests to Jenkins
✅ Run Tests in Docker
✅ Use GitHub Actions for Test Automation
✅ Deploy on Cloud Selenium Grid (LambdaTest, SauceLabs)
📚 Learn from:
Jenkins Tutorials on YouTube
Docker Official Docs
