The Complete Selenium WebDriver with Java Course

This course covers Selenium WebDriver and Java topics in detail, from basic to advanced levels. So, if you don’t have prior knowledge of Java, you can begin with Java Modules. Start going through ‘Selenium WebDriver’ videos after you develop some fluency in Java.

Remember, you don’t need to go through all sessions of the Java Course before starting with Selenium WebDriver (because it is an in-depth course on Java and will take a while to finish). The first 6 Sections of Java should be sufficient to get you ready for learning Selenium WebDriver.

I believe in example-oriented teaching. So, you won’t find any PPTs during the sessions. But, you will find dozens of real-time scenarios used to elaborate Java and Selenium WebDriver concepts.

Feel free to post your questions/feedback in the block provided under each session-video. I will make sure all of your queries are addressed. ‘Course Outline’ below will give you an idea about the depth and the overall coverage of this course. If you want to learn any other Selenium WebDriver concept that is not already covered in this course, please let me know via Udemy messenger.
