The first step for Test Automation

My background is in programming on mainframe. During my job search for a programmer position, I became interested in testing for a job.

I started Manual testing for Web and mobile devices (iOS and Android) in 2014. It was challenging, but liked it.

While my performance was improved in manual testing, I became interested in Test Automation. It was related to my expertise, coding.

I have attended Test Automation training with Selenium WebDriver and Java for 6 months since January, 2015. Especially, for the last 2 months, it was hands-on 1-to-1 intensive training.
I created classes for projects, and used Selenium WebDriver API, Java, Eclipse, JUNIT, XPATH and JavaScript.

See my Thank you Note video with Selenium and Java after hands-on 1-to-1 intensive training ends.

I think this is a good start.
