Purpose and Entry Points

This is a Maven-based Java learning and automation repository: Java language examples in src/main/java and executable Selenium, API, TestNG, and design-pattern demonstrations in src/test/java. Primary execution entry points are Maven (pom.xml) and TestNG suite descriptors such as testNGSuites/sampleTestNG.xml and testNGSuites/grid.xml.

Java Fundamentals and Data Exercises

The main source tree is organized as independent instructional modules rather than a single production application. Core topics include OO abstractions, inheritance/polymorphism, collections, exceptions, threading, serialization, and algorithm exercises.

• src/main/java/org/sft/abstraction/AutomationTest.java

• src/main/java/org/sft/collectionsFramework/CollectionFramework.java

• src/main/java/org/sft/programs/FindMissingNumberInArray.java

Browser Automation Layer

Selenium tests drive browser behavior and demonstrate browser interactions, synchronization, JavaScript execution, tabs/frames, screenshots, and Selenium 4 capabilities. Test classes are direct consumers of WebDriver and target external web pages; there is no identified application-under-test source in this repository.

• src/test/java/org/sft/SeleniumExamples/FirstTest.java

• src/test/java/org/sft/SeleniumExamples/BaseSFT.java

• src/test/java/org/sft/Selenium4Features/CDPTest.java

Driver Lifecycle and Deployment Variants

Several packages model WebDriver construction and ownership using singleton, factory, and manager patterns. These form a boundary between tests and browser-specific drivers, enabling Chrome/Firefox selection and examples of local, grid, Docker, and BrowserStack execution.

• src/test/java/org/sft/designPatterns/DriverManager.java

• src/test/java/org/sft/factoryDesignPattern/WebDriverFactory.java

• src/test/java/org/sft/singleDesignPatterns/SeleniumDriver.java

Remote execution infrastructure is represented by the bundled Selenium server artifact and dedicated grid/container tests:

• src/test/resources/selenium-server.jar

• src/test/java/org/sft/SeleniumExamples/ParallelGridTest.java

• src/test/java/org/sft/SeleniumExamples/BrowserStackTest.java

TestNG Orchestration and Reliability

TestNG controls lifecycle, assertions, data providers, dependencies, grouping, parallel execution, and retry behavior. XML suites are the main control boundary for selecting and scheduling test classes; thread-local examples support isolated drivers during concurrent runs.

• src/test/java/org/sft/testNG/SampleBase.java

• src/test/java/org/sft/testNG/MyRetryAnalyzer.java

• testNGSuites/parallel.xml

UI Framework and Page Boundaries

A small TestNG UI framework separates setup/teardown, reusable browser actions, page representations, and login test flow. PageFactory and non-PageFactory implementations allow comparison of locator binding approaches.

• src/test/java/org/sft/SimpleFrameworkDevelopementUsingTestNG/BaseSFT.java

• src/test/java/org/sft/SimpleFrameworkDevelopementUsingTestNG/CommonActions.java

• src/test/java/org/sft/SimpleFrameworkDevelopementUsingTestNG/LoginPageUsingPageFactory.java

API and File-Based Data Flows

API examples issue GET/POST requests, construct or inspect JSON payloads, and validate response content. Test data is read from JSON, text, and Excel files, while Postman collections provide a separate manual/API-client interface.

• src/test/java/org/sft/APIExamples/GetRequestSample.java

• src/test/java/org/sft/APIExamples/PostRequestUsingDataFromFile.java

• testData/userData.json
