Course Overview
TOPThe pytest framework is simple to use but powerful enough to cover complex testing integration scenarios. PyTest is considered by many to be the true Pythonic approach to testing in Python.
Geared for QA, Test team members and others who want to use the Python testing framework PyTest to implement code testing strategies, Test Automation with Python is a hands-on, two day Python testing course that provides students with the skills required to get started with PyTest right away. Participnats will learn how to get the most out of it in their daily workflow, exploring powerful mechanisms and plugins to facilitate many common testing tasks. Students will also learn how to use pytest in existing unittest-based test suites and will learn some tricks to make the jump to a pytest-style test suite quickly and easily.
