Test Automation: From Zero To Hero

on YouTube ↗37m

" summary

New frontend components force a rewrite so a fresh framework is built in about one and a half years using C# + Selenium + nUnit, with selectors generated from component context and interactions limited to component‑specific methods. Setup and teardown move to APIs, navigation switches from UI clicks to URLs, and tests run in CI with parallelization. The team reports migrated thousands of tests, reduced flakiness, faster runs, and clearer failure signals so broken builds mean real bugs or needed test updates.
