Learn how to run Selenium Java tests in Azure DevOps.

Mastering Selenium

We all write automated tests using Selenium WebDriver and Java. While developing and testing our automation code, we run it locally on our computers. Others should be able to change or run the code as well. This becomes possible when the code is added to a repository, from which other people can also access it. Once the code is in a repository, it can be executed in a CI/CD environment—such as Jenkins or Azure DevOps—through pipelines. This is the focus of this module.
 
In this module, we’ll add a local automation project built with Java, TestNG, and Selenium to an Azure DevOps project, share the repository with other people, and run its tests through pipelines.

Run Selenium Java Tests in Azure DevOps


There are many reasons why Java should be used for writing UI automated tests:



- **Java is the programming language that I
 used in the majority of my automation projects.**

   - Sometimes, C# was preferred by the project team, but, in most cases, Java was the language choice for writing the automated tests.

- Java has been **around for about 25 years**.

- It is a <b>powerful and stable programming language and is always evolving.</b>
