Description

TestCafe is an open source end-to-end testing framework that combines unmatched ease of use with advanced automation and robust built-in stability mechanisms. This book is a comprehensive, project-based introduction to TestCafe that will show you how to use the TestCafe framework and enable you to write fast and reliable tests; plus you’ll have a proof of concept ready to demonstrate the practical potential of TestCafe. You’ll begin by learning how to write end-to-end web tests using the TestCafe syntax and features of the TestCafe framework. You’ll then go from setting up the environment all the way through to writing production-ready tests. You’ll also find out how to build a sample set of tests in a step-by-step manner and use TestCafe to log in to the website, verify the elements present on different pages, create/delete entities, and run custom JavaScript code. As you advance, you’ll delve into several stages of refactoring that will take you through the showcase setup/teardown and PageObject patterns. While this test suite is relatively simple to build, it showcases some of the most prominent features of TestCafe. Finally, this TestCafe book will show you how the tests can be run on a free and simple-to-use website, without requiring you to build and deploy your own servers or backend services. By the end of this book, you’ll have learned how to write and enhance end-to-end tests with TestCafe to solve real-world problems and deliver results.

Loaded with detailed, current examples, Modern Web Testing with TestCafe gives you everything you need to know to quickly get up-to-speed. The book takes you from learning about the framework itself, how to set up your environment, building your test suite, and then refactoring your tests. If you are an SDET or an engineer who wants to level up their TestCafe skills, I couldn't recommend it more!

This is a very good book for- Beginners who are looking for step by step clear instructions to use TestCafe right from setting up the environment all the way to writing expert level e2e automated tests- Current TestCafe users to learn TestCafe internals and best practices.The other aspect I like about this book is, it also provides compares between Selenium and TestCafe. This is very helpful for current Selenium users trying to switch to TestCafe and best use the benefits TestCafe provides.

Dmytro did a great job of putting together a clear and simple guide for beginners to learn everything about testcafe. It is surprisingly easy to follow along and build end-to-end tests utilizing the best capabilities of testcafe. It also serves as a great reference for optimizing the tests you have already written in testcafe.

Très bonne ouvrage avec de bons exemples, seul bémol si vous lisez sur Kindle le code source n'est pas forcément très lisible, il a les fichiers sur github qui compense.
