Richard Bradshaw’s series on Selenium Webdriver is a great starting point - it’s on The Dojo (you need to be a premium user)

Also, Joe Colantonio lists useful resources here https://www.joecolantonio.com/2015/06/22/the-best-resources-for-learning-selenium-quickly/

What do you want to automate (web app, APIs, Windows application, …)? How does the current manual process look like? Do you have one?

You might find http://elementalselenium.com/ useful for getting started and weekly tips to your inbox, but it’s specific to Selenium.

I gave an anwser on the QA StackExchange regarding testing in general. It has a lot of links to books, sites, blogs and talks - and a section specific for automation.

I would copy-and-paste it here, but the forum plataform only allows me to post to link per post.

Hi!
For an overview on test automation, I would recommend https://www.softwaretestinghelp.com/automation-testing-tutorial-1/. If you want to dig more into Selenium Webdriver, they have an entire tutorial on that topic.
Another nice video introduction on Webdriver: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9KcSkeRdf90
Hope it helps!

There are lot of resources available online to learn Automation. Here, it would have been helpful if you would have mentioned specific area in which you are interested. Currently, Selenium tool is mostly used by a number of quality assurance companies. So, assuming that initially you would be interested to learn it.

Knowledge of any other language must be required to work on automation using Selenium tool. I would recommend to learn Java first for you. You can refer any offline/online course for learning Java. However, Selenium is supported by .NET, Python, Ruby, Perl as well. Once you get good knowledge on the language and ready to take hands on Selenium then go for learning Selenium.

Below mentioned tool you would require along with Selenium to work on automation:
Maven
TestNG

It is also recommended to use IDE as Eclipse for learning Java and Selenium. Hope this information is helpful for you.
