Welcome to the comprehensive Playwright Python course that covers everything from the basics to frameworks, including Python & Pytest fundamentals without need of any prior Python experience.Combining Playwright with Python unlocks powerful capabilities that can drive innovation in test automation frameworks. Let me walk you through why this combination stands out:Why Python? Python is not only one of the most versatile programming languages, but it’s also the backbone of Machine Learning (AI) development. Its extensive frameworks for AI integration make it a natural choice for building automation frameworks that leverage AI-driven capabilities.Why Playwright? Playwright has been growing exponentially boasting a 750% increase in usage every year. Known for its speed, reliability, and ability to automate both UI and API applications, it’s quickly becoming a top competitor to Selenium in the test automation space.Bringing Playwright and Python together enables you to craft a robust, future-ready test automation framework with AI capabilities of handling even the most complex web and API-based applications.In this course, you’ll systematically learn:Python essentialsPlaywright automation with PythonPytest frameworksBehavior-driven development (Pytest BDD)Whether you’re just starting out or looking to expand your skillset, this course is designed with no prerequisites—everything is covered step by step to ensure a seamless learning experience.Imagine the boost this combination can bring to your resume in the evolving test automation era!I can’t wait to see you in the course and help you unlock new opportunities in your career.Note : For Beginners, there is 3 hours Python video in the beginning  of this course which covers all Python basics from Scratch including coding Assignments and quizzes which prepares candidates for Interviews.Course Structure Breakdown: Python/Pytest Basics for Beginners (3 hrs) - Build a solid JavaScript foundation for confident Playwright exploration.Playwright Web/UI Automation (50%) - Master core Playwright concepts for comprehensive UI automation.Mixed Web & API Testing with Network Mocking (25%) - Expand your skills by combining UI and API testing with network mocking capabilities.Playwright Advanced Framework Features (25%) - Dive deep into advanced Playwright frameworks for optimal test design.In conclusion, this course is a one-stop shop for you to become a Playwright hero and take charge of modern, full end-to-end test automation.Become a Playwright hero and embrace the future of end-to-end test automation.
