AutomationExercise Selenium POM UI Test Automation

This project contains automated UI tests for Automation Exercise using Selenium WebDriver with Python and the Page Object Model (POM) design pattern. Tests are implemented with PyTest to ensure maintainability and scalability.

Features

• Clean Page Object Model architecture
• Selenium 4.6+ with automatic WebDriver management (no manual driver setup)
• PyTest integration with fixtures and markers
• Secure handling of credentials via environment variables and GitHub Secrets
• Continuous Integration configured with GitHub Actions

Installation

Clone the repository:

Copy code
git clone <repo-url>
cd automationexercise-selenium-pom

Create and activate a virtual environment:

Copy code
python -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate     # Linux/Mac
.\venv\Scripts\activate      # Windows
