Tutorials and resources on how to apply test automation in software testing
This video present how the robustness of the MongoDB server was tested to survive various system crash scenarios. You will learn how you can be able to automate crashing a server of any type of OS and host configuration (physical or virtual).
How many times have your selenium test suites run beautifully on one browser, only to fail when run in any other browser? This is an extremely common problem faced when incorporating cross-browser tests into your test runs. Not all browser drivers are created equally, but that doesn’t mean you can’t create a robust suite with cross-browser tests. This talk presents strategies for making cross-browser tests invincible. It discusses key topics such as using as choosing the best locators for all browsers, explicit vs. implicit waits and how to leverage cloud based testing tools.
Over the past decade, eXtreme Programming practices like Test-Driven Development (TDD), Behavior Driven Developer (BDD), Refactoring and Continuous Integration have fundamentally changed software development processes and inherently how engineers work. Practitioners claim that it has helped them significantly improve their development speed, design quality and responsiveness to changing requirements.
Providing meaningful data to perform software testing is the main challenge of test data management. This issue is even more important in domains where sensitive data is used like healthcare or financial systems. In this article, Thirunavukarasu Papanasam discusses some best practices to remove the risks out of your test data management activity.
When you use a Behavior Driven Development (BDD) approach, you are going to automated tests for Agile user stories base on acceptance criteria. Defining these acceptance criteria between the product owner, the developers and the software testers is not always an easy task and can create lengthy discussions. In his article, Matt Wynne presents example mapping as a new approach to define acceptance criteria.
Scaling software development teams can sometimes be a problem for fast-growing startups. How can you keep the quality of the code when you start hiring more and more software developers. In his blog post “How to build quality into your software development workflow”, Sandeep Chouksey, VP of Engineering at Shutterstock, shares some experience on how his company tried manage quality in a continuous delivery context.
The best reason for writing tests is to automate your testing. Without tests, you will likely perform software testing manually. This manual testing will take longer and longer as your codebase grows. This video presents how to test an Angular 2 application. Learn how to use to JavaScript open source testing tools: Jasmine, a Behavior Driven Development (BDD) testing framework for JavaScript, to unit testing components and Protractor, a testing framework for Angular and AngularJS applications, for integration testing. This presentation explores also coverage options and continuous integration tools.
