Target Audiences

Anyone wanting to learn browser automation, no matter which skill level. All necessary knowledge will be taught in the course.

This course is designed with one simple goal in mind: To teach you web automation so that you will have all the tools to build reliable and fast test suites using the industry’s best-practices and advanced techniques. On top of that, you will learn how web applications work behind the scenes and how you can use this knowledge to your advantage.

Practice makes perfect

I believe that you can learn any subject if you practise it. That is why this course is completely practical: We will be building a real test suite for a shopping app. You will also learn how to take these learnings and concepts and apply them to your own applications!

Throughout the course, there are plenty of exercise stages where you are invited to pause the video and take on a challenge, practising and retraining things you already learned. But don’t worry, I will always be walking you through my solution at the end of the exercise.

The right tool for the job

Playwright is one of the most powerful and convenient automation frameworks out there, used by big-brand companies such as Microsoft, Adobe and Disney+. We pair it up with JavaScript, the most popular programming language on the planet! This course will teach you everything there is to know. We will even go one step further and explore the rich ecosystem of third-party libraries.

Learning should be fun

Programming isn’t just a job for me; it’s a passion. I look to bring this passion into my teaching. This is exactly the kind of course that I would love to take myself — I make things fun and engaging.

Having a problem? No problem!

Errors are natural in programming. I will be in the Q&A section ready to take on your questions. Every lesson also comes with a transcript of the code changes; that way you can also confirm your solution independently!

Let’s get started

I am thrilled to have you here and I can’t wait to get started with you. See you in the course!
