Manual to Automation Tester: Build Your First Selenium Script with Me on Facebook (LIVE Coding) 🚀

Posted By on February 24, 2026

If you’re a manual tester or complete beginner wondering “Can I really learn Selenium?” — this video is your starting point. 🚀

In this step-by-step session, Saranya (8+ years experience in automation, Selenium trainer at Testleaf) takes a real-world example — creating a Facebook account — and shows you how to:

Understand why Selenium is still in demand (live job search on Naukri)

Open Chrome and launch Facebook using Selenium + Java

Use Eclipse IDE and integrate Copilot to speed up coding

Create projects, packages, classes & main method the right way

Write your first Selenium script to:

Launch browser

Load URL

Maximize window

Add implicit waits

Locate elements using ID, Name, XPath

Fill First Name, Last Name, Email & Password fields

See clearly how manual steps → become automation steps

This is Part 1 of the series — in the next part, we’ll handle dropdowns (DOB), gender radio buttons, and more practical Selenium concepts.
