Intermediate
Functional programming(FP) exists from as long as object oriented programming. But most of the testing frameworks are written in OOPS style rather than FP. A typical automation tester knows little or nothing about it. Functional programming is a programming paradigm in which everything is written in terms of functions. This makes the code more modular, bug-free and parallelizable. Hence, it is important to first understand functional programming before avoiding it.
In this workshop, we will introduce functional programming in testing world. We will help you understand some of the hard concepts of FP, like Currying, Higher order functions, and demonstrate how they can be used in writing an automation framework which is scalable and easier to maintain.
We'll use Selenium 4.0 to automate a few UI scenarios, covering functional programming concepts and a code walkthrough to its object-oriented counterpart. This will entice viewers to choose programming style based on its benefits rather than its simplicity.
