Creating a Fast Feedback Loop Basic - Selenium

• One of the main problems you hear people talking
  about with Selenium is how long it takes to run
  all of their tests I have heard figures ranging
  from a couple of hours to a couple of days. In
  this chapter, we will have a look at how we can
  speed things up and get the tests that you are
  writing to run both quickly and regularly.

• Another problem that you may come across is
  getting other people to run your tests this is
  usually because it is a pain to set up the
  project to work on their machine and it's too
  much effort for them. As well as making things
  run quickly, we are going to make it very easy
  for others to check out your code and get
  themselves up and running.

• How does this create a fast feedback loop?
• Well, first of all, allow me to explain what a
  fast feedback loop is. As developers change or
  refactor code, it's possible that they may make a
  mistake and break something. The feedback loop
  starts off when they commit code and is complete
  when they know whether their code changes have
  worked as expected, or something has been broken.
  We want to make this feedback loop as fast as
  possible, so ideally a developer will be running
  all of the tests that are available before every
  check-in. They will then know whether the changes
  they made to the code have broken something
  before the code leaves their machine.
• Eventually, we want to get to the point where
  developers are updating tests that fail because
  the functionality has changed as they go. The
  eventual code to turn the tests into living
  documentation, Producing the Right Feedback When
  Failing.
• we are going to start by creating a basic test
  framework. What am I going to need? The software
  and browser versions used to write the code in
  this are as follows

• Java SDK 8
• Maven 3.5.3
• Chrome 66
• Firefox 60
• It's a good idea to make sure that you at least
  update to these versions to make
• sure everything works for you.
