What the deck covers
The deck covers Selenium 4 with Java-style examples, the most common combination in Indian automation testing jobs. The 22 cards are grouped into 7 topics: Basics, Locators, Waits, Exceptions, Interactions, Framework, Limits. Answers are short on purpose: one or two sentences you can say out loud, which you then back up with an example from your own projects.
A card from the deck
Q: Implicit vs explicit wait?
A: An implicit wait sets a global timeout for finding elements. An explicit wait (WebDriverWait with ExpectedConditions) waits for a specific condition. Don't mix them, as timeouts can add up unpredictably.
Interviewers often ask what happens if you mix implicit and explicit waits. The honest answer, unpredictable timeouts, shows you've hit the problem in real projects.
How to study with it
- Write the XPath cards against a real page with the XPath tester.
- Have one framework story ready: how your Page Object Model and reports were organised.
- In the Selenium deck, cards you mark "still learning" come back three cards later in the same round, and the results screen lists them so you can download a revision sheet.
