Testing & QA¶

Test automation engineering - frameworks, tools, patterns, and infrastructure for reliable automated testing.

Frameworks and Tools¶

pytest fundamentals - fixtures, parametrize, xdist, markers, hooks, conftest plugins
pytest fixtures advanced - scopes, factories, composition, conftest hierarchy, autouse, finalization
selenium webdriver - WebDriver protocol, locators (CSS/XPath/data-testid), waits, interactions
playwright testing - auto-wait, codegen, trace viewer, role-based locators
selene python - Selenide for Python, fluent API, auto-waiting, concise browser automation
mobile testing - Kaspresso (Android), screen objects, emulators in CI

api testing requests - REST (requests/httpx), response validation, session hooks
grpc testing - protobuf, client generation, interceptors, Allure integration, WireMock
soap testing - WSDL, XML parsing, zeep client, fault handling, WS-Security
oauth testing - OAuth 2.0 flows, PKCE, JWT validation, auto-refresh sessions

page object model - POM pattern, component objects, abstraction levels
pydantic test models - response validation, strict mode, data generation, schema contracts
test data management - env configs, parametrize, factories, cleanup strategies
test parallelization - pytest-xdist, distribution modes, worker isolation, scaling
database testing - SQL queries from tests, rollback isolation, cross-service verification
test logging secrets - structured logging, secret masking, Allure sanitization

test architecture - project structure, test pyramid, coverage, logging, security
allure reporting - annotations, steps, attachments, session hooks, report publishing

ci cd test automation - Jenkins, GitHub Actions, Selenoid, Docker Compose, scheduling
docker test environments - compose stacks, testcontainers, wait strategies, CI services
fastapi test services - TestClient, dependency overrides, async testing, mock services
kafka async testing - producer/consumer tests, eventual consistency, DLQ validation
