Getting started

We maintain the Neodymium-Template project to have a common starting point when setting up new test automation projects. It includes all basic dependencies and should work out of the box.

1. Goto https://github.com/Xceptance/neodymium-template project
2. Perform the steps from the hello world section of the https://github.com/Xceptance/neodymium-template#hello-world project
3. Rename your project by working through the taking ownership section of https://github.com/Xceptance/neodymium-template#taking-ownership
4. Decide whether you want to go the pure java or the cucumber way and remove the unneeded files as described in the [https://github.com/Xceptance/neodymium-template#remove-unneeded-code-approach](remove unneeded code approach) section of Neodymium-Template.
5. Use all features that you like e.g.:
   • Page objects
   • Multi browser support
   • Test data provider
   • Allure reports
   • [https://github.com/Xceptance/neodymium-library/wiki/TestRecording](Test Recording)
   • Logging
