Automating testing with Java/C#

In today’s market, basic knowledge of a programming language is a must for a tester. For example, testers are involved in automating (regression) testing that requires this knowledge. Knowledge of the structure of a programming language also helps in being able to communicate with developers. In addition, testers with their knowledge of a programming language can better support developers in setting up automated unit tests.

The two most commonly used languages are Java and C#. To teach testers knowledge of (one of) these programming languages, Polteq has developed this training. Prior to the training, participants indicate in which programming language they would like to complete the various tasks during the training.

During this two-day course you will learn the basics of programming in your chosen language through explanation and doing a large number of exercises. You can also set up a test framework appropriate to your chosen language (Java: JUnit or TestNG; C#: NUnit, MSTest or xUnit) and set up and run automated tests in it.

You will also gain knowledge of some principles from Object Oriented Programming (OOP) that are applied in test automation. Participants will receive the material digitally after the training, so they can immediately apply what they have learned in their own practice.
