The document outlines the Selenium certification training agenda, emphasizing the need for Selenium frameworks to improve testing efficiency and code maintainability. It explains different types of frameworks: data-driven, keyword-driven, and hybrid, detailing their structures and data management strategies. Additionally, it discusses integrating Selenium WebDriver with Apache POI for data handling in testing scripts.

Data Driven Framework

8. www.edureka.co/testing-with-selenium-webdriverSELENIUM CERTIFICATION TRAINING
What Is Data Driven Framework?
Data Driven Framework is a testing strategy in which the data set under test, is stored separately from the test script.
Test
Script
Data
Set
Code and data stored separately
DATA DRIVEN FRAMEWORK
→ Automation testing is driven by the data set under test.
→ Same test script will work for different data sets.
→ Eg:- Login credentials stored in excel & passed as parameters to the code.

Can Selenium WebDriver read data from an
Excel file for input?
The Question Is:-

10. www.edureka.co/testing-with-selenium-webdriverSELENIUM CERTIFICATION TRAINING
Selenium WebDriver + Apache POI
No! Selenium WebDriver does not support read and write operations on excel files.
But, it can be supported with the integration of third party tool (Apache POI).
.xlsx
.xls
Apache POI is a library, which allows you to read, create & edit Microsoft Office-documents using Java.
Advantages:- Easy maintenance and improved test coverage.

Keyword Driven Framework

13. www.edureka.co/testing-with-selenium-webdriverSELENIUM CERTIFICATION TRAINING
What Is Keyword Driven Framework?
Keyword Driven Framework is a strategy in which the methods to be tested, is stored in an external file.
Test
Script
Code and methods stored separately
KEYWORD DRIVEN FRAMEWORK
→ Automation testing is driven by the file containing the method names to
be tested.
→ The same script will work for executing the methods mentioned in the file.
→ Eg:- Method names to be executed are stored in the excel.

Java reflection class is used to import the
methods of one class into another class

WebDriver vs. IDE vs. RC
➢ Data Warehouse is like a relational database designed for analytical needs.
➢ It functions on the basis of OLAP (Online Analytical Processing).
➢ It is a central location where consolidated data from multiple locations (databases) are stored.
