iSQI Certified Selenium WebDriver Foundation Tester - Online

£1075 per delegate ex vat Selenium is the de facto standard for front-end test automation of modern web technologies due to the flexible and powerful browser automation capabilities of WebDriver.

The Selenium Tester Foundation is a practical training course aimed at test professionals who desire a basic understanding of Selenium WebDriver for creating web application tests.

Participants will learn about factors to consider when deciding to automate testing as well as specific techniques for navigation, interacting with GUI elements, logging, reporting, and more. Upon the successful completion of the course, a participant will be able to create and run Selenium WebDriver tests without supervision.

Our online courses are all run in real time with a live trainer, who hosts video conferencing session for each lesson.

Courses are scheduled and run in the same way as traditional ‘classroom’ sessions, with exercises and interaction throughout, allowing delegates to ask questions and for the trainer to check understanding through the course.

We are proud of our high pass rates, as well as our consistently strong delegate feedback; many of the delegates on our courses are referrals or repeat business.

Our materials are all developed in-house, by our experienced team of practitioners, with many years of software testing experience between them.

Our trainers are experienced testing practitioners, and use their many years of software testing experience to enhance the learning for delegates.

Who Should Attend?

Attendees should have general knowledge of basic programming and some knowledge of Python.

While this course is accessible to anyone wanting to acquire a basic, hands-on knowledge of Selenium, the main audiences are:

  • People with no test automation experience who are starting to automate in Selenium
  • People with some GUI test automation experience who are new to Selenium
  • People with some non-GUI test automation experience who are new to Selenium

Exam Details

The course runs for three days, with one hour set aside on the third day for the Selenium Foundation exam if desired.

The certification exam is a 60 minute, 40 question, multiple-choice exam. To attain the Selenium Foundation certification candidates must pass the A4Q Selenium Tester Foundation certification exam.

A score of at least 65% (that is, 26 or more questions answered correctly) is required to pass the exam. If the candidate’s native language is not the examination language, the candidate may be allowed an extra 25% (15 minutes) time.
