Java programming might seem complicated at first. That's usually because a lot of courses focus on not practical details, assuming that everybody who is learning Java wants to create an application. But there are other uses for Java! And this Java for Selenium tutorial approaches a different, quite specific topic: we will focus on Java concepts that are mostly used for test automation tools. So if you are looking for an introduction to Java for testers, you have come to the right place!
You don't have to know anything about Java programming before you start this course. We will start from the absolute Java basics for Selenium, and step by step, you will know everything there is to know about Java for Selenium and test automation.

So, what you will learn about Java?
As you can see, this introduction to Java basics for Selenium tutorial doesn't have a lot of unnecessary information. It is straight and to the point to make it as useful for you as possible.
Java can be used in a variety of ways. It can be used for app development, back-end programming, and, of course, testing. The latter choice is excellent if you don't want to be the one creating the leading applications, or you want to get into the developers' world with a different approach.
But why should you learn Java programming for testing? Each software needs testing: when you are writing code, you cannot be entirely sure it will always work as you want. The only thing you can do is test it in various circumstances. By using Java, you can build a powerful test automation framework. Java is especially the right choice if you are making a framework for Selenium WebDriver GUI automation.
Not everybody wants to write applications: some people want to "break" and test them. This introduction to Java course is precisely for those people. Learn Java for testers today!
