Description:

The Selenium Java-Based Test Automation Framework is a robust and modular solution for automating web application testing. Designed for efficiency and scalability, this framework uses Java as the programming language and supports Selenium WebDriver for browser interactions. With an organized structure and powerful features like data-driven testing, reporting, and CI/CD integration, it provides everything you need to implement reliable automated tests.

Whether you're building regression test suites or handling complex UI workflows, this framework offers the tools and flexibility needed to achieve consistent testing results.

Features:

1. Comprehensive Test Suite Management

   • Modularized test structure for easy organization.
   • Support for functional, regression, and smoke testing.

2. Page Object Model (POM)

   • Pre-implemented POM for maintainable and reusable code.

3. Cross-Browser Testing

   • Test on Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Safari, and more.

4. Data-Driven Testing

   • Utilize Excel or CSV files for data-driven testing using Apache POI or OpenCSV.

5. Customizable Configuration

   • Centralized configuration file for managing browser, environment, and test settings.

6. Integrated Reporting

   • Generate detailed HTML and extent reports for test execution results.
   • Attach screenshots for failed test cases.

7. Logging and Debugging

   • Integrated logging with Log4j for better debugging.

8. Parallel Execution

   • Run tests in parallel using TestNG.

9. CI/CD Integration

   • Ready-to-use configuration for Jenkins, GitHub Actions, or GitLab CI pipelines.

10. Reusable Utilities

    • Built-in utilities for handling web elements, waits, file uploads, and more.

Requirements:

• Java: JDK 11 or higher
• Maven: Version 3.x or higher
• Selenium WebDriver: Latest stable version (managed by Maven dependencies)
• Browsers: Chrome, Firefox, Edge (latest versions)
• IDE: IntelliJ IDEA, Eclipse, or similar Java IDE
• Dependencies:
  • Selenium Java
  • TestNG
  • Apache POI (for Excel data handling)
  • Extent Reports (for reporting)
  • Log4j (for logging)

Instructions:

1. Import the Project

   • Open the project in an IDE like IntelliJ IDEA or Eclipse.
   • Ensure Maven is configured in your IDE.

2. Install Dependencies

   • All dependencies are managed via Maven. Simply refresh or update your project to download required libraries.

3. Set Up Configurations

   • Edit the src/main/resources/config.properties file to configure the base URL, browser type, and environment-specific settings.
   • Add test data in the src/test/resources/testdata directory.

4. Run Tests Locally

   • Execute tests using TestNG:

     bash

     Copy code

     mvn test

   • Run specific test suites:

     bash

     Copy code

     mvn test -DsuiteXmlFile=testng.xml

5. Generate Reports

   • HTML and Extent Reports will be generated in the target/reports folder.

6. Integrate with CI/CD

   • Use the provided Jenkinsfile or cicd.yml for integrating tests into your pipeline.

7. Parallel Execution

   • Modify the testng.xml file to enable parallel execution settings.
