Testing the user interface for any application is generally time-consuming when done for each new release. UI test automation is the most common and effective way to simulate the actual user journey and business use-cases for any application.
In this course, you will learn how to design a test automation framework from scratch for automating any web-based application using Java, Selenium, and TestNG. You’ll start by learning the basics of Selenium and TestNG and then move on to learn about build management, logging, and reporting, which are key learnings for any QA engineer or developer. By the end of this course, you will have successfully created a UI test automation framework.

Design a Test Automation Framework with Selenium and Java

We have to create our web driver objects in a way that it can handle parallel runs. Below code will guide you step by step on creating a web driver manager which handles WebDriver object creation.

# `DriverManager`

```java

import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;

public class DriverManager {

	private static final ThreadLocal<WebDriver> DRIVER = new ThreadLocal<WebDriver>();

	public static WebDriver getWebDriver() {
		return DRIVER.get();
	}

	public static void setWebDriver(WebDriver driver) {
		DRIVER.set(driver);
	}

	public static void closeDriver() {
		if (DRIVER.get() != null) {
			DRIVER.get().quit();
			DRIVER.remove();
		}
	}
}
 
```

This lesson is a step-by-step guide to create a WebDriver manager.
