With a growing number of instrumented tools in the market, Mobile End-to-End Testing (MOET) uses a non-instrumentation approach, and extensive use of design patterns. MOET’s mobile device libraries are pluggable open-sourced components and only one language and test harness is needed for testing on diverse mobile platforms.
In this presentation, Michael Bolton explains how he uses interdisciplinary and exploratory methods to make sense of both the products we test and software testing itself. He explains how anthropology, which describes cultures and artifacts, can guide our testing; how investigative journalism can show us how to build a compelling testing story; and how sociology can help us understand how people interact with their tools.
This talk discusses common pitfalls in writing unreadable, unmaintainable unit tests in JavaScript. Some simple rules can keep you from tearing your hair out in anger three months from now, when things need to change.
With Selenium and Jenkins, you can extend Selenium processes to include screenshot comparisons, enabling automatic UX compliance at the speed of your Continuous Integration workflow. Learn how to compare screenshots from one Jenkins run to a repository of known quality, in order to insure that not only does your website work well, it also looks well.
Any developer who cares about software quality should be committed to writing unit tests. Used well it can be a vital tool in every developer’s toolbox, but unfortunately the theory and practice don’t always match up. Easily-made mistakes can lead to brittle, unmaintainable and ‘write-only’ tests that not only become difficult to work on, but can lead to a hatred of unit testing in general. Presented here are examples of these mistakes with code samples, why you’re making them and how to avoid them in future.
Test driven development follow this pattern: Setup – Execute – Verify the new state. Asking the system under test for its new state has traditionally been done to check the new state. This can create problems with the Law of Demeter. The system under test knows unnecessary much about the objects it is collaborating with.
Managers play a critical role in the success or failure of test automation. Although most testers and some test managers have a realistic view of what automation can and cannot do, many senior managers have firm ideas about automation that are misguided—or downright wrong.
