Test Automation Puzzlers
summary
Covers common Selenium pitfalls through live puzzle-style examples and demos: how getText on nested elements returns combined text (so a link’s text can change results), differences between findElements vs findElement and chained selectors, headless Chrome’s 800×600 default and why maximize may do nothing, when console logs may be empty after reading, lazy Java streams causing ConcurrentModificationException if modified during streaming, the need to explicitly register TestNG transformers, and how timeouts plus initialization often produce failures around six seconds.
