For my own purpose Iāve gathered the list of Dummy sites for freshers/beginners, mostly manual practice, but not exclusively. I hope itāll be helpful.
Dummy Sites and Collections
- DemoQA (https://demoqa.com/)
- This site is quite good for understanding basic concepts such as alerts and frames. However, without a mentor assigning tasks and reviewing results, I wouldnāt have known how to test effectively.
- WebDriver University (WebDriverUniversity.com)
- This one seemed too complex, and I couldnāt figure out how to use it. Maybe I didnāt try hard enough, or perhaps it is genuinely difficult for beginners.
- AcademyBugs (https://academybugs.com/)
- I found this site very useful, as it offers videos illustrating the bug-finding process. I watched all available content, but thereās no opportunity to practice here.
- Sauce Demo (https://www.saucedemo.com/)
- A mobile app with bugs that are easy to spot, but unclear what to do next. Thereās no feedback on how to document these bugs. I noted them on paper, but whatās the next step? Access to the appās code was unclear. I only have an Android phone and donāt know how to test on an iPhone.
- Ministry of Testing (Ministry of Testing | Ministry of Testing)
- Recommended for its vast amount of training information (in English) and online and offline events, which I plan to attend to enhance my practical skills.
- A resource with links to small applications that can be clicked, tested, and even bugs found. However, it also lacks interactivity and understanding of what and why I am doing it.
Additional Interesting Trainers
- QA Trainer Jschool (https://qa-trainer-jschool.web.app/)
- I found this resource on YouTube, and it meets my initial practice needs. It shows what to test and provides interactive guidance, which is convenient for the learning process. I loved their test case generator with various categories, and no registration is needed. However, it seems to be in the startup phase.
- Testing Challenges (http://testingchallenges.thetestingmap.org/)
- A decent site, but it appears to be no longer maintained. Not all challenges are understandable.
Accessibility Testing Links
Here is a collection of links for accessibility testing, which involves checking a websiteās usability for people with disabilities, such as color blindness or cognitive impairments.
