Testing web applications during a sprint poses a challenge for frontend web app developers, which can be overcome by harnessing the power of new, open source crossbrowser test automation frameworks. This book will introduce you to a range of leading, powerful frameworks, such as Selenium, Cypress, Puppeteer, and Playwright, and serve as a guide to using their test coverage capability. You'll learn essential concepts of web testing and get an overview of the different web automation frameworks to be able to integrate them into your frontend development workflow. Throughout the book, you'll explore the unique features of top open source test automation frameworks, as well as their trade-offs, and learn how to set up each of them to create tests that don't break with changes in the app. By the end of this book, you'll be able to not only choose the framework that best suits your project needs but also create an initial JavaScript-based test automation suite. This will enable fast feedback upon code changes and increase test automation reliability. As the open source market for these frameworks evolves, this guide will help you to continuously validate your project needs and adapt to the changes.
