Build an automation framework... with a developer mindset | Aditi Mulay |

Automation framework development is an acquired skill and can be considered similar to application development. The framework would greatly improve if the design principles used to write application code are leveraged to build it. By leveraging the 4 pillars of Object Oriented Programming in writing your automation framework, we can achieve the same level of efficiency as your application. Here are a few quick examples:
Abstraction - use of different browsers to enable the test case to be run on many different system configurations.
Encapsulation - use of page objects as a class.
Inheritance - keep common functionality in parent Page class and extend it for all other child Page classes.
Polymorphism - ability to change behavior at runtime
Software development is built on the foundation of reusability and reliability. By making the steps in scenarios reusable and scenarios or test cases independent, we can lower the test maintenance costs and improve stability.
Prerequisite
Test Automation
Nice to have basic Java experience
Learning Outcomes
Get ideas on how to build frameworks
Understanding ways to write easily maintainable code
Write independent scenario and reusable steps

The developer on 28:20 really needs to follow the principle. Btw, why he/she is being egoist?

[@MarathiMi]

the example was not definitely not realistic
