Python Selenium Training

RexGalaxy Academy's Python Selenium Training is a practical automation testing program designed for learners who want to automate web application testing using Python, Selenium WebDriver and modern QA workflows. The course is ideal for manual testers, beginners in automation, Python learners, QA professionals and students who want to build job-ready test automation skills.

This training starts with Python basics and testing fundamentals, then moves into Selenium WebDriver, browser automation, locators, waits, web elements, forms, alerts, frames, multiple windows, PyTest, data-driven testing, Page Object Model, reporting, Git and CI/CD awareness. Learners practice automation on real web pages and build structured frameworks instead of only writing simple scripts.

The course focuses on hands-on implementation. Students learn how to identify elements, write stable tests, handle dynamic pages, debug failures, organize reusable code, generate reports and create maintainable automation frameworks.
