useful, yet repetitive...will keep it as 5* if it is enough for me to get that certification

[Oleksandr Romanov · Rating 4 out of 5]

This book - is one of the best on the topic of test automation.
Applicable to a broad set of projects and technical issues - not only "UI Selenium" tests.
There are many theoretical aspects in the book- from automation to developing and maintaining existing solutions.
Also - a lot of examples of automation challenges from real-life projects.
I highly recommend this book.
