9. Configuration Properties & File Management

Java Properties Files

Store configuration in config.properties:

base.url=https://targetqa.com
browser=chromium
headless=true
timeout=30

Read dynamically in Java:

import java.io.*;
import java.util.Properties;
public class ConfigReader {
    private static Properties properties = new Properties();
public static void loadConfig(String filePath) throws IOException {
        try (InputStream input = new FileInputStream(filePath)) {
            properties.load(input);
        }
    }
public static String getProperty(String key) {
        return properties.getProperty(key);
    }
}
