📝 Notes

This project is intentionally basic — it's the foundation before moving to Page Object Model and framework-level architecture. For production-grade examples, see:

• QA76m_DemoQA_POM — Page Object Model with fluent API
• QA76_PhonebookGUI — ApplicationManager framework, multi-browser, TestNG groups
