Appium is an open source test automation framework for use with native, hybrid and mobile web apps on iOS and Android platforms. Native apps are those written using the iOS, Android, or Windows SDKs. Mobile web apps are web apps accessed using a mobile browser (Appium supports Safari on iOS and Chrome or the built-in ‘Browser’ app on Android).
Mobly is an open-source, Google-developed, Python-based framework to perform software testing on products that require interactions among multiple devices, like social apps; or tests that require controlling test environment, like WiFi connection. Mobly can support many different types of devices and equipment, and it’s easy to plug your own device or custom equipment/service into Mobly.
doctest is a fully open source light and feature-rich C++98 / C++11 single-header testing framework for unit tests and TDD. It is inspired by the unittest {} functionality of the D programming language and Python’s docstrings. Tests can be considered a form of documentation and should be able to reside near the production code which they test. This is not possible (or at least practical) with any other testing framework for C++.
xUnit test runners are one of the basic capabilities of rapid iterative development practices such as Continuous Integration and Test Driven Development. This presentation explores how test runners are generally implemented in modern programming languages like PHP, JavaScript and Ruby.
Today’s continuous delivery (CD) pipeline is a collection of many technologies that ensure the highest quality product reaches production. As a new feature moves from concept to production it goes through several phases of testing. However, for the CD pipeline to remain efficient, the bulk of this testing must be automated. Unit tests, load tests, integration tests, and user interface tests all require automation infrastructure.
There are often two approaches to improve software testing and software quality: you can get better at finding defects or you can get better at reducing the number of escaped defects. This presentation focuses firmly on the second option, how to set up teams and organisations that produce high quality products at source.
Doing software testing in production used to be taboo – a sign that you had a lax attitude to QA. Now it is increasingly accepted that the opposite is true, and that if you only test your system in artificial environments you don’t really know it works. This presentation shows the tools and techniques used to test feature functionality, performance, and failure scenarios in production.
