SST or Selenium Simple Test is an open source web test framework that uses Python to generate functional browser-based tests. The tests are made up of scripts, created by composing actions that drive a browser and assert conditions. You enjoy the flexibility of the full Python language, along with a convenient set of functions to simplify web testing, but the commands are simple and flexible enough that the tool can also be used by non-programmers.
Web Consistency Testing is a new form of automated Web testing that answers the simple question “does this page look the way it should?”. Historically, the way a page looks has been relegated to the status of “design artifact” and as such, been treated as something that must be tested with human eyes.
SOA Web services are now supported by most of major software development companies and industry. To be reliable, these ones require to be developed with respect to a complete software development life cycle and, in particular, they need to be tested. Test purpose-based methods are black box testing techniques which take advantage of reducing the time required for test derivation in comparison with exhaustive methods.
This Selenium tutorial is intended for people having an interest in testing web applications. Its objectives are to show you how to write tests that effectively test your applications but also how to integrate Selenium in your existing testing processes following the good practices that this tool requires.
This video explains why we need to develop page components for our tests in order to create smaller and more dynamic page components. Web pages are no more the monolithic static pages of the past. They contain a lot of small elements that we interact with, so being able to focus on the components is a better solution to automate the testing of web applications.
Inside Google, Javascript is the 4 largest language (in terms of lines of code) but one the fastest growing. Developing fast, robust and high quality Javascript is however a challenge within the industry. Unlike C++ or Java, the availability of high quality development, debugging and testing tools for Javascript is still lagging industry standards.
Unit testing focuses on testing small pieces of code that a developer is writing. This article shows how to get started unit testing JavaScript as well as server-side code.
