POM (Page Object Model)
Structure: POM is a design pattern that creates an object repository for
web elements. Each web page is represented as a class, and each class
contains methods to interact with the web elements on that page.
Elements: In POM, you define web elements using By locators, and you
have to initialize them using driver.findElement() or
driver.findElements().

Page Factory
Structure: Page Factory is an implementation of POM. It provides a
more concise way to initialize web elements.
Elements: In Page Factory, you use annotations like @FindBy to define
web elements, and Page Factory initializes them for you using
PageFactory.initElements().
