2. Automation framework
 Methodology (BDD/ATDD)
 Tools Evaluation & Selection
 Tools integration
 First Tests
 Scaling, Maintenance, Sharing
 Patterns
 Common Pitfalls

3. Yadda (github.com/acuminous/yadda)
 BDD Style
 Flexibility (‘define’ instead of ‘given, when, then’)
 Dictionaries

4. WebDriver.io
 YAWF (Yet Another WebDriver Framework)…?
 DSL driven & chainable:
 Extensibility:

5. Pitfalls
 Large classes – Lack of SRP
 Boilerplating within Step Definitions
 Inability to Share test artifacts

6. Simplify steps
 Multiple definitions with different literals
 Create dictionaries
 Use ‘define’

7. Modularization
 Steps

8. Modularization
 Agent  Missions
 Using Prototypical extension

9. Now I’m able to say:

10. No Local Vars in Steps
 Use Context!
 Pass methods to the context e.g.

Screens
 Like Page Objects but only element containers:

12. Now I’m able to say:
