Selenium WebDriver with Java - Basics to Advanced and Frameworks - Parameterizing from TestNG XML File

The video tutorial explains parameterization in testing G XML files, emphasizing the importance of avoiding hardcoding by using centralized files for common variables like URLs and API keys. It covers defining global parameters applicable to all test cases and specific parameters for individual test methods. The tutorial also addresses debugging parameterization errors and demonstrates applying parameters at the test level for specific folders, ensuring efficient and organized test management.

Why is it important to use global environment variables in testing?

• To maintain consistency across test cases

• To make test cases run slower

• To ensure test cases are hardcoded

• To increase the complexity of test cases

What is the main rule of a testing framework regarding hardcoding?

• Hardcoding is mandatory

• Hardcoding should be avoided

• Hardcoding is optional

• Hardcoding is encouraged

Where should you define parameters if they are common across all test folders?

• In the main Java class

• In a separate properties file

• In a centralized XML file

• Inside each test method

What is the benefit of using a centralized XML file for parameters?

• It increases the risk of errors

• It centralizes and simplifies parameter management

• It makes tests harder to manage

• It slows down test execution

What is the correct syntax to use a parameter in a test method?

• Using @Test

• Using @Parameters

• Using @Param

• Using @Parameter

What happens if you define a parameter at the test method level?

• It overrides global parameters

• It applies only to that specific test method

• It is ignored by the test engine

• It applies to all test methods

What should you do if a parameterization test fails?

• Ignore the error

• Re-run the test without changes

• Read the error message and debug

• Delete the test case

What is a potential cause of a parameterization error in a test case?

• Not using any parameters

• Using too many parameters

• Correct parameter usage

• Incorrect parameter name

How can you ensure a parameter is only applicable to a specific test folder?

• Define it inside the test folder

• Hardcode the parameter

• Define it globally

• Use a different XML file

How can you differentiate parameters for personal loan and car loan test cases?

• Use the same parameters for both

• Define unique parameters for each

• Avoid using parameters

• Use hardcoded values
