This book will not be a lot of programming or describing the huge number of patterns and instructions on how to write code. In this book, I tried to focus more on the concept of how and with what vision it is necessary to approach the creation of a test framework I wrote my first test framework back in 2014. It is still in use today. Yes, it added new versions, new modules. But the structure and the idea have not changed.

It got me to think back in 2014 were well-known principles laid down in this framework. These principles to this day are absolutely the same, for 7+ years nothing has changed. I have not once analyzed existing information, existing frameworks. And my conclusion is just conceptual nothing has changed. All articles and books of 2014 are still relevant. Yes, we live a little at a different time, at a different speed, cloud, mobile devices, technologies are developing at a great speed, but the basic principles remain.

And it is about these basic principles I want to tell you in this book.

This book does not aim to fully disclose the entire subject area with all its nuances, so do not take it as a textbook or Handbook - for decades of development testing has accumulated such a volume of data that its formal presentation is not enough, and a dozen books. Also, reading just this one book is not enough to become a "senior automated testing engineer". Then why do we need this book?

First, this book is worth reading if you are determined to engage in automated testing - it will be useful as a "very beginner" and have some experience in automation. Secondly, this book can and should be used as reference material. Thirdly, this book - a kind of "map", which has links to many external sources of information (which can be useful even experienced automation engineer), as well as many examples with explanations.
