COURSE DESCRIPTION:
Welcome to the comprehensive Playwright course that covers everything from the basics to frameworks, including JavaScript fundamentals without need of any prior JavaScript experience.
This course is entirely practical. We will use a fully functional e-commerce application for testing and learn how to automate every scenario of the application, including dynamic components often used in modern React and Angular applications.
We will also explore how to perform API testing to create data within the application using Playwright.
The course will show you how to conduct end-to-end functional testing, which includes both UI testing and API testing in a single script. This script creates data, tests scenarios, and deletes the data.
Advanced topics are discussed, such as grabbing session cookies using APIs and responses to bypass the UI login screen for faster and more reliable execution.
Everything is possible with Playwright, and this course demonstrates a systematic way to handle complex e-commerce applications with strategically designed automated test cases.The course covers two powerful frameworks for designing test cases:
Playwright Cucumber BDD Framework
Playwright with Mocha

Excellent course and great pace. very detailed explanation as well as Q&A section also has pretty much everything answered as expected. Looking forward to future courses. -- Adwait Yashwant A.
Really liked this course. I have 8–9 years of backend experience, and every topic taught by Sir was informative, concise, and to the point. There were no unnecessary or boring sessions. Each topic was covered in a proper sequence, which made it easy to follow.
The JavaScript and DevOps sessions, in particular, were very helpful for me. Thank you sir
