Learning Objective
By the end of this course, you will be able to
By the end of this course, learners will be able to:
- explain the role of Selenium WebDriver in a professional automation strategy and how it interacts with the browser
- identify the key components of a Selenium Java project including WebDriver, locators, waits, and test runners
- apply the Page Object Model pattern to write maintainable, reusable automation scripts
- build a structured Selenium test suite with TestNG or JUnit, Maven, and HTML reporting
- run an automated test suite across multiple browsers and interpret the results report
- debug flaky tests by identifying timing issues, stale element exceptions, and selector problems
- compare XPath and CSS selectors and choose the most appropriate strategy for a given element
- create a production-ready Selenium Java framework demonstrating professional automation standards
Target learners
Who this course is for
For manual testers ready to stop clicking through test cases and start automating them properly.
Manual QA engineers ready to move into automation who want to build a production-ready Selenium framework not follow a demo and forget it by the next sprint.
Career starters targeting their first junior automation role who need a real portfolio framework with Page Object Model, TestNG, and Maven to show in interviews.
Developers who want to add structured QA automation skills to their repertoire and understand how test frameworks actually scale across large codebases.
If you see yourself in one of these, this course is built for you.
Prerequisites
What you need
Prior Java and manual testing experience is required for this course.
Basic Java knowledge including classes, methods, and object-oriented principles is needed.
ISTQB Foundation or equivalent manual testing experience is expected before joining.
A laptop with Java, IntelliJ IDEA, Maven, and Chrome installed is required.
Learners should be ready to build and run automation scripts from the first session.
Course Overview
What this course is about
Stop clicking. Start automating.
This course takes you from manual tester to automation engineerbuilding a real, production-ready Selenium framework from scratch using Java, TestNG, and the Page Object Model.
You won't just run scripts. You'll architect a framework that scales, that teams trust, and that proves your engineering ability.
At ITLearnner, we focus on clarity, structure, and confidence. Every session builds the framework that gets you hired.

Frequently asked questions
1
Who is this course designed for?
This course is designed for QA engineers who want to move from manual testing into automation, developers who want structured test automation skills, and professionals targeting SDET and automation engineering roles.
2
What prior experience do I need?
Basic Java knowledge classes, methods, and OOP fundamentals and familiarity with manual testing and test case writing. ISTQB Foundation certification or equivalent experience is recommended.
3
What will I be able to do by the end?
You will be able to set up a Selenium WebDriver project, write reliable locators, implement Page Object Model architecture, handle waits and advanced interactions, structure tests with TestNG, and run your framework in a CI pipeline.
4
How are the sessions structured?
Seven modules, 1.5 hours per session, 14 sessions over seven weeks. All live and online, with real automation tasks on a live test application throughout.
5
What is EngagePro?
After each session, you receive a reference guide covering WebDriver commands and locator strategies, plus byte-sized automation tasks on the live test application. Ravi Kumar reviews all framework submissions with inline code commentary and specific improvement suggestions.
6
What tools do I need?
A laptop with Java, IntelliJ IDEA, Maven, and Chrome installed. All are free to download.
7
Will I receive a certificate?
Yes. On completing the course you receive the ITLearnner Selenium Automation Practitioner Certificate, which evidences practical Selenium WebDriver framework building skills.
8
Will I write real automation scripts during the course or just follow along?
You will write real Selenium scripts from the very first practical session. The course is structured around hands-on labs where you build test frameworks incrementally, so by the end you have working automation code that you can reference and extend in your own projects.
9
Which browsers and operating systems does Selenium support?
Selenium WebDriver supports Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and Safari across Windows, macOS, and Linux. The course covers cross-browser testing strategies and how to configure WebDriver for different environments, which is directly applicable to real-world QA roles where teams must test across multiple browsers.
10
How does Selenium WebDriver relate to Selenium Grid and Selenium IDE?
Selenium WebDriver is the core scripting API used for writing automation tests in code, which is what this course focuses on. Selenium Grid allows you to run those tests in parallel across multiple machines and browsers, and Selenium IDE is a simpler record-and-playback tool. Understanding WebDriver thoroughly is the foundation for using the broader Selenium ecosystem effectively.
