This instructor-led, live training in Portugal is tailored for anyone keen on learning Java specifically for test automation. It is a streamlined, intensive course packed with hands-on exercises designed to help participants quickly acquire the essential programming skills required for software automation testing. The emphasis is squarely on Java fundamentals that can be directly and immediately applied to test automation.

This course does not delve into advanced test automation frameworks such as Selenium. Furthermore, it skips the traditional "Hello World" approach to learning Java, as it is not an application development course. The primary goal is to get participants up and running with test automation as quickly as possible. If you are already proficient in Java and wish to move directly into testing with Selenium, please consider: Introduction to Selenium (https://www.nobleprog.com/introduction-selenium-training).

This programme is tailored for senior individual contributors who play a pivotal role in shaping technical direction, fostering architectural consistency, and influencing engineering decisions across teams.
