I very much dislike automation trainings starting with teaching Selenium,<\/p>\n
For starters that’s the wrong place to do automation. One should focus more on API tests and do a handful UI checks.<\/p>\n
Secondly, automation is a means to an end, not an exercise for the heck of it. Therefore talk about why to automate.<\/p>\n
Thirdly, in some cases folks learning automation don’t really learn how to test well either. If your testing is bad, your automation is just going to amplfy that bad.<\/p>\n
Lastly, without knowing how the underlying architecture of the product works, IMHO one cannot truly learn how to test well.<\/p>\n
So next time you plan an automation training, make sure you get the fundamentals right first.<\/p>\n
