UI test automation

How do we test web UI in our spring Web applications?
We need test automation tools that can record and repeat given steps.
In this video we'll present selenium automation framework and it's surrounding infrastructure.
To test our spring project we'll use Selenide testing library build on top of Selenium.
To enable testing in Gui-less CI/CD environments we'll integrate our UI tests with Testcontainers Webdriver container module that instantiates docker images fully compatible with Selenium.

We'll see how to integrate Selenide, Selenium, Testcontainers and Spring boot tests in end 2 end tests.
