Description

Welcome to testing automation with Protractor!

It's great to have you here. I'm pretty sure you're gonna love this course.

Web applications are always changing.

But changes here sometimes break things there, and vice-versa.

Automated tests can catch failures much faster than humans, and when well-architected, they serve as a safety net to push code to production when we see them all green.

Learn how to write end-to-end tests with the Protractor framework to test any kind of web application (even non-angular ones).

In this course, you'll learn:

How to install and configure Protractor
