This book provides an introduction to Python test automation that is light and accessible. A good read for test professionals as well as Python novices. Taking a tour of Python test automation and seeing the attractions along the way. I wrote this book to be read like a book: something easy to read but still informative and interesting. There are code samples, but I try to keep the focus on the concepts with the code samples illustrating those concepts instead of the code samples dominating the content. The structure follows a loose “basic, intermediate, advanced” format. Chapters should ideally be read in order and there’s a slight building on concepts from one chapter to the next. However, each chapter does stand alone as a complete thought on a topic so individual chapters can be read or skipped at one’s pleasure. The primary audience for this book are application developers and test developers who use Python, but this book can enjoyed generally as well.
