Automation Testing (.NET) Assessment Test

An Automation Testing (.NET) Assessment Test evaluates candidates for their proficiency in automated testing using the Microsoft .NET framework. This assessment typically covers the following areas:

1. C# Basics: Testing candidates' understanding of basic C# concepts, including variables, data types, operators, and control structures.
2. Selenium WebDriver: Assessing candidates' familiarity with Selenium WebDriver for automating web application testing, including navigation, interaction with web elements, and verifying page content.
3. Page Object Model (POM): Evaluating candidates' knowledge of the Page Object Model design pattern for organizing and maintaining web element locators and actions in automated tests.
4. Test Frameworks: Testing candidates' experience with .NET-based test frameworks such as NUnit, MSTest, or xUnit for writing and executing automated test cases.
5. Test Automation Patterns: Assessing candidates' understanding of common test automation patterns and best practices, including test data management, test execution orchestration, and reporting.
6. Data-Driven Testing: Evaluating candidates' ability to perform data-driven testing using external data sources (e.g., Excel files, databases) to drive test case variations and inputs.
7. Behavior-Driven Development (BDD): Testing candidates' familiarity with BDD frameworks like SpecFlow or SpecRun for defining test scenarios using natural language specifications (Gherkin syntax).
8. Continuous Integration (CI): Assessing candidates' knowledge of integrating automated tests into CI pipelines using tools like Jenkins, Azure DevOps, or TeamCity for automated build, test, and deployment workflows.
9. Cross-Browser Testing: Evaluating candidates' ability to perform cross-browser testing by executing automated tests across different web browsers (e.g., Chrome, Firefox, Edge) using Selenium WebDriver.
10. Mobile Testing: Testing candidates' familiarity with .NET-based mobile testing frameworks like Appium or Xamarin.UITest for automating mobile application testing on iOS and Android platforms.
11. API Testing: Assessing candidates' understanding of API testing concepts and tools for automating API endpoints testing using libraries like RestSharp or HttpClient.
12. Performance Testing: Evaluating candidates' knowledge of performance testing concepts and tools for automating load and stress testing of web applications using tools like JMeter or Gatling.
13. Test Reporting and Analysis: Testing candidates' ability to generate comprehensive test reports, analyze test results, and identify defects using .NET-based reporting and analysis tools.
14. Security Testing: Assessing candidates' awareness of security testing principles and tools for automating security vulnerability scans and penetration testing in web applications.
15. Accessibility Testing: Evaluating candidates' understanding of accessibility testing guidelines and tools for automating accessibility checks to ensure web applications comply with WCAG standards.

Overall, the Automation Testing (.NET) Assessment Test aims to identify candidates who possess the knowledge and skills to design, implement, and execute automated test suites using the Microsoft .NET framework, contributing to the quality assurance of software products and systems.
