Selenium WebDriver Advanced - Industry Standard Framework - Code Refactoring

The video tutorial discusses the process of refactoring code to improve its structure and efficiency. It emphasizes the importance of creating common components for different parts of an application, such as search bars and results pages. The tutorial suggests simplifying page structures by consolidating similar functionalities into single classes, particularly for navigation. It also covers strategies for class creation and renaming to enhance code readability and maintainability. The video concludes with practical steps for implementing navigation and linking pages effectively.

Why does the speaker suggest refactoring the code?

• To make the code more efficient and logical

• To add more features

• To remove the search bar functionality

• To increase the number of classes

What is the main advantage of creating a common navigation class?

• It increases the number of methods

• It reduces redundancy and simplifies navigation

• It allows for more complex code

• It makes the code harder to understand

What is the speaker's approach to handling the 'all courses' and 'my courses' pages?

• Combine them into a single navigation class

• Add more methods to each page

• Delete the 'my courses' page

• Create separate classes for each

What is the first step in the refactoring process described in the final section?

• Adding more methods to the 'all courses' page

• Renaming the 'all courses' page to 'navigation'

• Creating a new class for each link

• Deleting unnecessary classes

How does the speaker suggest handling the 'is open' method after refactoring?

• Implement it immediately

• Comment it out and implement later if needed

• Remove it completely

• Duplicate it in multiple classes
