• automated testing using JUnit, TestNG, Mocha, Chai, SOAP UI, and
• Selenium are covered.

• Explore approaches of identifying bad code, how to design

• applications using clean coding principles, and best practices for
• coding artifacts that meet clean coding standards. Discover how to
• handle errors with clean code, principles for writing clean code,
• and testing strategies for maintaining clean code. Examine rules
• for implementing clean tests, clean coding in JavaScript, and
• test-driven development principles.

• Explore containerized testing, the benefits of using Docker for

• testing, the advantages and disadvantages of using Docker to set up
• architectures for automated testing, the features and prerequisites
• of test containers, and patterns used for running tests in Docker
• containers. Discover how to configure and integrate GitHub
• repositories with Docker, test automated builds on Docker Hub,
• configure continuous integration testing environments with Docker
• and Docker Compose, and integrate and use Docker test containers
• with reporting tools. How to implement performance testing with
• Docker containers, and deploy and integrate Selenium Grid with
• Docker to run Selenium scripts for testing is also covered.

• Explore the design principles, architecture, and essential

• components of Kubernetes, as well as how Kubernetes helps implement

• automated with Kubernetes, when and when not to use Kubernetes for
• automation testing, and the advantages and disadvantages of
• implementing test automation using Selenium Grid and Kubernetes.
• Discover how to run and deploy three-tier web applications using
• Kubernetes, scale applications by increasing replica counts, create
• single-zone clusters and volume resources within clusters, and run
• Docker application container images using GKE. How to set up test
• environments using Selenium Grid, Docker, and Kubernetes, build
• test container images, use Selenium WebDriver to implement
• end-to-end browser-related tests, and deploy test containers in
• Kubernetes clusters and publish test results are also covered.

• Explore the use of AWS-based environments for automated testing,

• including AWS tools for development and testing, and best practices
• for using AWS to set up environments for automated testing.
• Discover how to use AWS Device Farm for automated testing of iOS,
• Android, and web applications, as well as how to work with AWS
• CodePipeline, AWS CodeBuild, AWS CodeDeploy, AWS CodeStar, AWS
• CloudFormation, and AWS OpsWorks to provision infrastructure and
• pipelines for automated testing.
