WebdriverIO Training Overview
WebdriverIO is an open-source, cross-browser testing automation framework built on top of WebDriver. It is written in JavaScript or TypeScript and runs on Node.js. WebdriverIO is a popular testing automation tool for many organizations, including Google, Facebook, and Amazon.
This WebdriverIO & Behavior-Driven Testing training teaches attendees how to write user stories and translate acceptance criteria into feature and step files. Attendees learn how to use Visual Studio Code (IDE), WebdriverIO, TypeScript, Cucumber together to test their web applications.
